5 Best Thanksgiving Hairstyles of 2023

The spooky season has come to an end, ushering in the next big holiday -Thanksgiving. You’ll soon be chowing down on a holiday feast, enjoying time with loved ones, and making lasting memories. And, of course, you’ll want to look your best! We’ll make that a little easier in this article, where we’ll share the top 5 Thanksgiving hairstyles of the year. Let’s get right into it!

Big and Curly 

No hairstyle catches the eye quite like a big, bold mess of curls. It exudes confidence and an air of vibrance that’s hard to replicate. If your hair is naturally curly, simply wet it down and apply a curl-defining product to bring out your curls’ true essence. If your hair is naturally wavy or straight, try sock curls or use a curling wand to fake it ‘til you make it. Either way, you’ll look absolutely gorgeous. 

Two French Braids 

Want something more low-key that puts your facial features on blast? Two French braids could be exactly what you’re looking for. The style is exactly what it sounds like - two French braids. You can do a braid going down each of your head with a middle part or side part. And if you’re feeling a little daring, try a deep side part. If you’re not really a braider, the time to hone your skills is now.

Messy Bun with Curtain Bangs

For a look that’s equal parts carefree and flirty, try a messy bun with curtain bangs. This look works for all face shapes and hair types and takes only a few minutes to complete. You’ll part out some bangs and pull the rest of your hair into a messy bun. A little nugget of wisdom - if you haven’t already gotten your bangs cut into curtain bangs, you’ll need to do that at some point to make the look work.

Bubble Ponytail

Another holiday favorite is the bubble ponytail. It’s a super fun high ponytail with bubble-like sections going from the base of the ponytail to the ends of your hair. This style goes well with literally every look, and anyone can do it. Simply pull your hair into a high ponytail, wrap a ponytail holder around the base, and then add ponytail holders down its length, fluffing the hair in-between to make the bubbles. 

Retro Bob with Flipped Ends 

Looking for a style that’ll make a statement? Tapping into the allure of bygone eras with a retro bob is sure to do it. This bob is short and sweet with flipped ends that add an element of playfulness to the look. And the best part about this style is that it’s versatile. You can pull the top into a ponytail or switch up the part for a whole new vibe. 

So, there you have it - 5 Thanksgiving hairstyles to consider this holiday. We hope you found a style that speaks to you, and we wish you the absolute best as you enjoy the holiday with your family and friends.
