Ribbon Chain Braid Holiday Hairstyles
Hey guys! Today we are sharing another fun Christmas hairstyle idea. Although, this technique can really be used for any time of the year. Just change up the color of ribbons for your event, school colors, or holiday!
This ribbon chain braid is relatively easy to make and would be a pretty accent for tons of hairstyles. You could add this braid to an updo, a half up hairstyle, a side braid, ponytail, etc. We have shown this ribbon chain braid with a fishtail braid in our video (below) as an example.

Some tips and tricks: Try to keep the ribbons flat as you are wrapping them around. If they twist, it won't look as tidy. Also, tying them all the same way will keep things neater. You can mix different widths, colors and textures of ribbon for different patterns. You can make the hair loops larger or smaller depending on the look you are going for. And... pomade, gel, wax, or hairspray will help with flyaways.
We have shown several chain or loop hairstyles in the past, dating back to 2008! If you like this concept, you can browse through more chain braids and hairstyle ideas using chains here.

If you are wanting more detailed explanations on either hairstyle, we have the original full step by step tutorials with commentary linked below:
Our snowflake ponytail was originally posted in 2014. This pretty snowflake hairstyle is one of our all time favorites and even though my daughter is a teenager now, she says she would still wear it. You will get lots of compliments if you try this one!
This Candy Cane Braid was originally posted in 2011.This 4 strand braid is beautiful. I love the striped design that can be created by using 2 strands of ribbon. We posted this braid when my daughter's hair was fairly short. If you have longer hair, this braid turns out even more awesome.
Hope you are all enjoying the holiday season!
