I’m Already Thinking About Holiday Hair Trends, So I Asked a Fashion Designer to Give Me Inspo

Call me overzealous, but I’m already dreaming about holiday hair trends. As soon as the weather turns a tad crisper and my local grocery store practically transforms into a pumpkin spiced warehouse, I’m bookmarking chic styles to try before party season picks up.

So when I had the chance to chat with luxury designer Joseph Altuzarra—who is known for a refined, modern, simply cool aesthetic—I of course had to ask which fashion-forward hairstyle he predicts will dominate the festive season. “My personal favorite holiday hair trend has never really changed,” he tells me over Zoom. Discover the look below, as well as every product you need to master this season’s trending styles.

“I really love a very clean, sleek look,” says Altuzarra. “I love a small pony or a small bun.” I know you’re probably thinking, Uh, a slicked-back bun isn’t exactly a groundbreaking hair trend, but that’s exactly why Altuzarra considers the style a holiday-time staple. Sophisticated and timeless, it exudes classic glamour. “I’m a child of the Tom Ford era, [so] that is definitely what I gravitate toward,” Altuzarra explains. In other words, slicked-back hairstyles are always a chic choice for the holiday season. And if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
