If you’re looking for some hairstyle ideas that incorporate the works—glitter, jewels, and big volume—look no further than these It-girl-approved looks to ring in 2020 in style
New Year’s Eve
1. Put a Headband on it
The headband made its great return into our lives this year. Close it out by topping off your NYE look with one, like Maya Hawke’s embellished style.
