If you're looking for a pretty and festive hairstyle to rock at the family Christmas party, these hair bow tutorials are going to give you life. Hair bows are a fun, feminine look for the holidays ...

The last time I wore ribbons in my hair, I was also wearing a leotard and tights: As a kid at the School of American Ballet, I would often decorate my slicked-back bun with elaborate satin bows.

Of course, these bows could also be used to adorn gifts if you have leftover ribbon, and they could even be made into hair clips if you were feeling really crafty at this time of year.
