About this look

Holiday curls are the voluminous defined curls set on hot rollers for holiday glamour — distinct from beach waves (looser, more undone) and Hollywood waves (slicker, more polished) by being more bouncy and voluminous, designed for festive party styling. The look has been a holiday party hair staple for decades.

It flatters oval, heart, and square faces — the voluminous bouncy curls frame the face. Wavy hair holds the set longest; straight hair takes the set with hot rollers; curly hair adapts to defined curl variants. Hair needs to be at least past the shoulder for the volume.

High styling maintenance — section hair, wrap on hot rollers, let set, remove rollers, brush out into voluminous curls, set with hairspray. Takes 30-40 minutes start to finish. The styling is specifically holiday-festive; the broader 'voluminous curls' category extends to year-round formal occasion hair. Voluminous defined curls set on hot rollers for holiday glamour.
