Nothing says Christmas like the classic pairing of red and green, and this year the festive duo is moving from your tree to your hair.

Whether you want a temporary pop of color for the office party or a full red-and-green dye job that lasts the whole season, you will find a look here that fits your hair length, texture, and comfort level. From elegant chignons and polished blowouts to playful space buns and cozy top knots, these 43 styles prove that red and green is the most joyful color story of the holidays. Scroll through and pick the one that matches your Christmas plans.

1. Peekaboo Red And Green Panels

Peekaboo red and green panels are the perfect entry point into holiday hair color because they hide under your top layer and flash color only when your hair moves. Your colorist paints vivid red and emerald sections through the mid-lengths and ends of the underlayer, keeping the canopy natural so the look stays office-friendly until you flip your hair. It is festive, flirty, and wonderfully low-commitment since the color grows out hidden.

This style works best on medium to long hair where the underlayer is thick enough to carry the color. Ask for semi-permanent dye so the red and green fade gracefully after the holidays, and wash with cool water and sulfate-free shampoo to keep the panels bright. Pair it with a red dress and let the wind do the styling for you.

2. Dip-Dyed Holiday Ends

Dip-dyed holiday ends give long straight hair an instant Christmas makeover with zero commitment to your roots. The bottom three to four inches are dipped in alternating panels of cherry red and pine green, creating a candy-cane effect that looks stunning when your hair swings. Because only the ends are colored, you can trim the whole look away in January without a single salon correction.

Straight or lightly waved hair shows off dip-dye best, since the clean line of color reads clearly against the dark base. Use a color-depositing conditioner once a week to keep the red and green vivid, and flat-iron the ends smooth so the two-tone finish looks intentional. It pairs beautifully with a simple red knit and glowing tree lights.

3. Sleek Ponytail With Velvet Bow

A sleek high ponytail wrapped in green satin ribbon and finished with a red velvet bow is Christmas elegance in under ten minutes. Smooth your hair back with a boar-bristle brush and a touch of gel for that glassy, snatched finish, then spiral the ribbon down the length of the pony and tie the bow at the base. The red-and-green combo reads instantly festive without a single drop of dye.

This look flatters every face shape and works on all hair textures once smoothed. For extra polish, wrap a small section of hair around the elastic before adding the ribbon, and mist with shine spray. It is ideal for last-minute party invitations, Christmas Eve dinner, or any day you want to look pulled-together with minimal effort.

4. Green Tinsel Twisted Into Auburn Waves

If you already have gorgeous auburn or red hair, you are halfway to a Christmas look — just weave in green tinsel extensions and you are done. The shimmering green strands catch the light as they move through your natural waves, creating a red-and-green interplay that looks magical under party lighting. Tinsel extensions clip or tie in within minutes and slide right out when the season ends.

Shoulder-length to long wavy hair holds tinsel best, since the texture hides the attachment points. Space eight to twelve strands evenly around your head, focusing on the pieces that frame your face. An emerald velvet dress completes the story, and the whole look takes less time than wrapping a present.

5. Beaded Red And Green Headband Curls

A red and green beaded headband turns simple long waves into a holiday statement with one accessory. Let your natural texture do the work — scrunch in a little curl cream, let it air-dry, and slide the beaded band about an inch back from your hairline so it sits like a crown. The intricate beadwork adds a bohemian richness that pairs beautifully with cozy knits and a red scarf.

This is the ultimate low-effort Christmas hairstyle for women who do not want dye, heat, or fuss. It works on wavy and curly textures of any length past the chin, and the headband keeps hair off your face while you cook, host, or open presents. Choose beads with gold accents if you want the look to feel extra luxurious.

6. Red And Green Box Braid Blend

Box braids are a protective-style dream, and blending red and green braiding hair into the mix makes them Christmas-ready for weeks. Your braider feeds in the colored extensions alongside your natural hair, creating long, festive braids that hold their color without any chemical processing on your own strands. The result is bold, joyful, and completely protective through the dry winter months.

Long box braids in a red-and-green blend suit anyone who wants a statement that lasts from December parties straight into the new year. Keep your scalp moisturized with a light oil, wrap the braids in silk at night, and refresh the edges with gel. A simple red dress lets the braids be the star of every photo.

7. Silver Bob With A Festive Bow Clip

Silver and gray hair needs no dye to join the Christmas palette — a small red velvet bow clip and green earrings do all the festive talking. The cool silver bob becomes a chic neutral canvas that makes the red and green accessories pop even harder than they would on darker hair. It is proof that holiday hair spirit is about styling, not just color.

This look is made for women embracing their silver, and it takes thirty seconds to achieve. Tuck one side behind the ear, clip the velvet bow just above it, and add green drop earrings. A green velvet blazer completes the red-green-silver story, and the whole ensemble reads elegant rather than costume-y at any age.

8. Tinsel-Streaked Party Curls

Dark curly hair becomes a walking celebration with green-tinted curls and sparkling red tinsel streaks woven through. The tinsel catches every bit of light while the green color peeks out between the ringlets, giving your natural texture a two-tone holiday dimension that looks incredible in motion. It is the kind of style that makes strangers ask where you got your hair done.

Curly and coily textures hold tinsel beautifully because the curls grip the fine strands in place. Ask your stylist for a demi-permanent green on select curl clumps rather than the whole head, then add a dozen red tinsel strands with micro-beads. A burgundy dress and glowing bokeh lights make the perfect backdrop for this showstopper.

9. Velvet Ribbon Bow Waves

A large red velvet bow with long green ribbon tails turns loose dark waves into the most romantic Christmas hairstyle in this collection. Gather the top half of your hair loosely at the back, secure it with a hidden elastic, then tie the velvet bow over it so the green tails cascade down through your waves. The texture contrast between plush velvet and flowing hair is pure holiday luxury.

This half-up style suits long hair of any texture and flatters every face shape since the front stays soft and open. Curl the ends loosely for extra romance, and choose a wide ribbon so the bow photographs well. Gold jewelry and a green shawl lean into the festive palette without competing with the hair.

10. Peekaboo Underlayer Bob

Short hair gets in on the peekaboo fun with a chin-length bob hiding red and green color in its underlayer. The sleek black canopy keeps the cut office-appropriate, but every turn of your head or gust of wind flashes the festive panels underneath. It is the bob lover’s answer to holiday hair — edgy, surprising, and completely wearable in January too if you love it.

Ask your colorist to paint the red and green panels on the nape and interior sections, keeping at least an inch of natural hair on top for coverage. Style the bob sleek with a flat iron so the reveal stays dramatic, and refresh the panels with color-depositing masks. A red turtleneck frames the reveal perfectly.

11. Plaid Headband Holiday Waves

A red and green tartan plaid headband is the fastest way to Christmas-ify long blonde waves. The preppy plaid pattern carries both holiday colors at once, so your hair only needs soft, touchable waves to complete the picture. It is cozy, photogenic, and perfect for gift-wrapping sessions, tree decorating, and every casual December plan.

Blonde hair makes the red and green of the plaid look even richer by contrast. Add loose waves with a large-barrel iron, brush them out for softness, and place the headband about two inches back from your hairline. A deep green dress ties the whole look together, and the style survives a full day of holiday errands.

12. Holiday Color-Streaked Afro

A full natural afro streaked with festive red and green temporary color is pure holiday joy in hairstyle form. The vibrant streaks follow your curl pattern through the volume, creating a confetti effect that looks spectacular against the dark base. Temporary color rinses out in a few washes, so you can go bold for the party and be back to natural by New Year.

Stretch your afro with a blowout or banding first so the color applies evenly, then paint the red and green on chunky sections with a brush. A red top keeps the palette tight, and a decorated tree behind you makes every photo look like a Christmas card. Moisturize well before and after coloring to keep curls happy.

13. Scrunchie And Bow Half-Up Duo

Doubling up on accessories is the secret to this sweet half-up look: a green velvet scrunchie holds the half-ponytail while a small red bow clip pins back one side. The two textures — plush velvet and crisp bow — play off each other beautifully, and together they deliver the full red-and-green story with zero heat styling required. It is youthful, charming, and endlessly wearable.

Long straight or slightly wavy hair shows off this duo best. Pull the top half back loosely so the style stays soft, secure with the scrunchie, then place the bow clip just above one ear. A red sweater and a snowy window view complete the cozy Christmas morning vibe this hairstyle was made for.

14. Festive Dip-Dyed Balayage

Balayage gets a holiday remix when the lightened ends are dipped in red and green instead of left blonde. The hand-painted balayage blend means the Christmas colors melt up into your natural base with no harsh line, looking expensive and intentional rather than costume-like. It is the grown-up way to wear two bold colors at once.

This works best on hair that is already balayaged or highlighted, since the pre-lightened ends grab the red and green vividly. Ask for alternating panels of the two colors through the ends, and maintain with color-safe shampoo and a weekly mask. An emerald dress and evening party lighting make the colors glow.

15. Poinsettia Clip Layers

A red poinsettia hair clip tucked into shoulder-length layers is Christmas accessorizing at its most classic. The lifelike flower reads festive from across the room, while green drop earrings echo the second half of the palette near your face. Together they turn a simple layered cut into a holiday look that works for church, dinner, or the office party.

Layered hair gives the clip something to nestle into so it sits securely and looks natural. Place it just above one ear, slightly back from your face, and let a few face-framing layers fall in front. A cream blouse keeps the focus on the accessories, and the whole look takes under five minutes from start to finish.

16. Tinsel Extension Mermaid Hair

Very long mermaid hair becomes a Christmas spectacle with red and green tinsel extensions woven through the lengths. The metallic strands shimmer against dark hair like ornaments on a tree, catching market lights and camera flashes as you move. It is dramatic, festive, and completely temporary — the tinsel ties in and slides out without any damage.

The key to wearing this much tinsel well is distribution: space twenty or so strands evenly from crown to ends so the sparkle reads as intentional, not tangled. Long, straight or wavy hair carries the weight best. A simple red dress lets the hair be the entire statement at the Christmas market.

17. Beaded Cuff High Puff

A high natural puff dressed with red and green beaded hair cuffs is regal, festive, and full of personality. The cuffs slide onto twisted or braided sections around the puff, adding jewelry-like detail that elevates the whole style. It celebrates natural texture while delivering the Christmas palette in the most elegant way possible.

Gather your hair into a high puff with a stretchy band, then add four to six beaded cuffs on twisted sections at the base and sides. The cuffs stay put all day and photograph beautifully against an ornament backdrop. A forest-green top completes the look, and the style transitions effortlessly from day to evening.

18. Red And Green Tipped Pixie

A textured pixie with red and green colored tips proves short hair can do Christmas just as boldly as long hair. Only the very ends of the piecey layers carry color, so the look is edgy and modern rather than overwhelming. It grows out gracefully too — a quick trim removes the color whenever you are ready to move on.

Ask your colorist for hand-painted tips in alternating red and green panels over your natural base. Style with a matte paste for piecey separation that shows off each colored tip. A red blazer and minimal pine-branch decor keep the focus exactly where it belongs: on the coolest short cut of the season.

19. Velvet Bow Ringlet Curls

Long, defined ringlet curls crowned with a red velvet bow and green ribbon is the most romantic Christmas hairstyle you can wear. The structured curls give the look old-Hollywood polish while the plush bow adds a playful, gift-wrapped finish. It is made for Christmas Eve dinners, holiday weddings, and any evening that calls for maximum glamour.

Define curls with a small-barrel iron and pin each one to cool for lasting bounce, then place the bow slightly off-center at the crown. The green ribbon tails should fall through the curls rather than over them. A burgundy dress and a glowing tree complete this unforgettable holiday portrait.

20. Money-Piece Holiday Bob

Money-piece highlights go festive when the face-framing panels are painted red and green on a chin-length bob. The bold color sits exactly where everyone looks — right around your face — so even the simplest styling reads as a deliberate holiday statement. It is the highest-impact color placement for the least amount of dye.

This suits women who want festive hair without committing their whole head. The panels are easy to refresh and simple to grow out or tone down later. Style the bob smooth so the color panels read cleanly, and let a Christmas wreath backdrop do the rest of the storytelling in photos.

21. Bow-Topped Green Headband

A green satin headband topped with a small red bow delivers the entire Christmas palette in a single accessory. Worn over long, straight, center-parted hair, it looks polished and preppy — the kind of style that works for a snowy cabin weekend as well as a family dinner. The satin sheen elevates it beyond a basic headband into something special.

Keep the hair sleek and simple so the headband stays the star: a flat iron and shine serum are all you need. Position the band about an inch behind your hairline with the bow sitting just off-center. A red sweater makes the green pop, and the look holds up through a full day of holiday plans.

22. Hidden Holiday Peekaboo Waves

Hidden red and green peekaboo color under long dark waves is the hair equivalent of a secret — only revealed when the wind catches your hair or you toss it over your shoulder. The deep base keeps everything sophisticated while the bright panels underneath add a thrill of Christmas spirit. It is perfect for women who want festive hair with a professional daytime disguise.

Wind is this style’s best friend, so do not fight the movement — a little texture spray enhances the reveal. Use semi-permanent color for the panels so they fade softly, and an emerald dress picks up the hidden green beautifully. Every gust becomes a little holiday surprise.

23. Jeweled Hair Stick Low Bun

A sleek low bun secured with a red lacquered hair stick tipped with a green jade bead is minimalist Christmas elegance. The style is all clean lines and quiet luxury — no bows, no glitter, just one perfect accessory doing all the festive work. It suits formal dinners and anyone whose holiday aesthetic leans refined rather than playful.

Twist the hair into a low chignon, slide the stick through diagonally, and let the jade bead sit visible at the top. Smooth flyaways with a light serum for a polished finish. A cream silk top keeps the palette calm and lets the red-and-green detail shine as the single statement.

24. Ombre Goddess Braids

Goddess braids with red and green ombre braiding hair are the ultimate long-lasting Christmas statement. The color melts from dark roots through vivid red and green lengths, and the loose curly ends keep the whole look soft and romantic. Because the color lives in the extensions, your natural hair stays completely untouched underneath.

This protective style lasts for weeks, carrying you through every December event with zero daily styling. Moisturize your scalp regularly, sleep in a silk bonnet, and refresh the curly ends with mousse. A red dress against evening party lights makes the ombre braids look absolutely radiant.

25. Scrunchie Top Knot With Ribbon Ties

A messy top knot secured with a red velvet scrunchie and finished with long green ribbon ties is Christmas-morning hair at its cutest. The undone texture keeps it relaxed while the velvet and satin add just enough polish for photos by the tree. It is the hairstyle equivalent of cozy pajamas that still look adorable.

Pile the hair up loosely, leaving soft pieces around the face, and wrap the scrunchie twice for hold. Tie the green ribbons around the base and let them hang long down your back. A forest-green sweater completes the palette, and the whole look takes five minutes — perfect for busy holiday mornings.

26. Crimson Curls With Tinsel Strands

Long crimson curls laced with sparkling green tinsel strands are pure Christmas magic. The red base already delivers half the palette, so the green tinsel only needs to weave through a dozen or so curls to complete the story. Under fireplace light the metallic strands flicker like tiny ornaments, and the whole look feels warm and celebratory.

Use a curling wand on alternating sections for uniform ringlets, then tie in the tinsel strands with tiny clear elastics near the roots. A burgundy velvet dress deepens the red story while letting the green sparkle stand out. This is a top contender for the most-photographed hairstyle of your holiday season.

27. Plaid Bow Blowout

A voluminous blowout clipped with a large red and green plaid bow is classic holiday glamour with a preppy twist. The bouncy, smooth blowout gives the bow a polished stage, and the tartan pattern delivers both Christmas colors in one fell swoop. It is the rare style that looks equally at home at brunch and at a black-tie party.

Achieve the blowout with a round brush and a volumizing mousse, flipping the ends under for that bouncy finish. Clip the plaid bow at the side, just above the ear, so it frames your face. A red blouse keeps the look cohesive, and the bow stays put through hours of celebrating.

28. Pastel Holiday Streaked Pixie

A silver pixie with pastel red and green streaks is the softest, most elegant way to wear holiday color on short hair. The muted tones blend dreamily into the silver base, reading as a watercolor wash of Christmas rather than a bold statement. It is sophisticated, age-defying, and utterly unique.

Ask your colorist for pastel panels painted through the top layers, keeping the sides natural for contrast. A little texturizing paste gives the pixie piecey movement that shows off each streak. An emerald blazer and a wall of wreaths make this quiet statement look like a million dollars.

29. Silk Scarf Woven Headband

A red and green silk scarf woven through long layers as a headband is bohemian Christmas at its finest. Braid the scarf into a simple three-strand plait along your hairline, letting the silk peek through the dark hair like ribbon on a gift. The result is intricate-looking but takes ten minutes, and the silk adds a luxe sheen no ordinary headband can match.

This works beautifully on long layered hair where the braid has texture to grip. Tie the scarf ends under the hair at the nape and let any extra length hang with your waves. A cream sweater keeps the look soft and wintry, and a snowy village view outside the window completes the storybook scene.

30. Red And Green Space Buns

Two space buns — one dyed festive red, the other festive green — are the most playful hairstyle in this entire collection. The bold split of color is impossible to miss and guaranteed to get compliments, laughs, and photos at any casual holiday gathering. It is youthful, fearless, and the ultimate expression of Christmas spirit in hair form.

Use semi-permanent dye on each bun section so the color washes out after a few shampoos, and twist the buns high for maximum visibility. A red top and glowing string lights make the perfect backdrop. This is the look for the friend who decorates first and takes the tree down last.

31. Velvet Headband Silk Press

A sleek shoulder-length silk press paired with a red velvet headband and green bow is polished Christmas perfection. The glassy smooth hair provides a flawless dark canvas that makes the red velvet look impossibly rich, while the green bow adds the second holiday color right where everyone sees it. It is elegant, grown, and red-carpet ready.

Wrap the hair at night to preserve the silk press through the holiday week, and touch up the roots with a flat iron before events. Place the headband about an inch back from the hairline so it frames the face beautifully. A deep green dress and a stocking-hung mantel make this look straight out of a holiday film.

32. Split-Dye Holiday Waves

A half-red, half-green split-dye on long waves is the boldest color statement in this collection. The sharp center part divides the two Christmas colors cleanly, creating a look that is part holiday, part high fashion. It is not subtle, but Christmas only comes once a year — and this is how you make it count.

Split-dye requires commitment, so consider semi-permanent color or a wig if you want the drama without the upkeep. Keep the waves soft and touchable so the look stays pretty rather than severe. A red dress and a decorated tree make the red-green division pop in every single photo.

33. Ribbon-Wrapped High Ponytail

A high ponytail wrapped at the base with red ribbon and finished with a green bow is cheerful, bouncy, and endlessly giftable as a look. The ribbon winding adds texture and color along the base while the bow sits like the finishing touch on a present. It is sporty enough for daytime and polished enough for a casual party.

Tease the crown slightly for lift, secure the pony high, then wrap the red ribbon around the elastic several times before tying the green bow on top. Smooth the pony with serum for shine. A forest-green sweater and a pile of wrapped gifts make this the official hairstyle of present-wrapping season.

34. Balayage Paneled Lob

A shoulder-length lob with red and green balayage panels is the chic, wearable way to do holiday color on medium hair. The hand-painted panels blend softly into the dark base, so the Christmas colors read as dimension rather than dye. It is sophisticated enough for the office party and festive enough for Christmas morning.

Ask your colorist for alternating red and green panels concentrated through the mid-lengths and ends, keeping the roots natural for easy grow-out. Style with loose waves to show off the color variation. A burgundy dress and evening party lights make the panels glow beautifully.

35. Mini Bow Braid Accents

Thin accent braids tied with tiny red and green velvet bows are the subtlest Christmas hairstyle here — and sometimes subtle wins. The micro-braids add delicate texture to long straight hair while the miniature bows deliver just a whisper of holiday color. It is perfect for minimalists, professionals, and anyone who prefers a hint of festive over a shout.

Braid two or three pencil-thin sections on each side of your part, securing each with a tiny clear elastic before tying on the velvet bows. The whole detail takes fifteen minutes and lasts for days. A cream top and snowy window light keep the look clean, calm, and quietly festive.

36. Extension-Braided Holiday Plait

A long side plait with red and green extensions braided through its length is a Christmas classic with a modern twist. The colored extensions weave in and out of your natural hair, creating a candy-striped braid that drapes beautifully over one shoulder. It is romantic, festive, and keeps long hair neatly contained through busy holiday days.

Clip-in colored extensions make this damage-free: braid them in with your natural hair in a loose three-strand plait and pancake the edges for fullness. A red dress and a glowing tree behind you turn this simple braid into a holiday portrait worthy of framing.

37. Holly-Pinned French Twist

An elegant French twist pinned with a red rose and green holly sprigs is the most sophisticated Christmas hairstyle in this collection. The timeless updo gets its holiday credentials from the botanical pins, which look like they were plucked straight from a wreath. It is made for galas, formal dinners, and candlelit evenings.

Roll the twist tightly and secure with pins before adding the floral accents at the side, just above the ear. A touch of strong-hold spray keeps everything in place through the night. An emerald evening dress completes this red-carpet-ready holiday look.

38. Sponge-Painted Holiday Taper

A short tapered cut with red and green sponge-painted color on the defined curls is bold, artistic, and unapologetically festive. The color sits only on the longer curls up top while the tapered sides stay natural, creating a striking contrast that frames the face beautifully. It is the coolest short-hair Christmas look you will see this year.

Temporary color wax or wash-out paint works perfectly here since the application area is small. Define the curls first, then dab the color on with a sponge for an artistic finish. A red top and an ornament-shop backdrop make the whole look pop with creative energy.

39. Festive Bandana Waves

Loose beach waves topped with a red bandana-style headscarf with green trim bring cozy cabin energy to Christmas hair. The scarf adds pattern and both holiday colors at once while the undone waves keep everything relaxed. It is the perfect style for a low-key Christmas — think hot cocoa, board games, and a crackling fire.

Fold the scarf into a wide band and tie it at the nape, letting the waves fall freely underneath. A little sea-salt spray gives the waves their beachy texture. A forest-green top and a log cabin setting complete this effortlessly charming holiday look.

40. Money-Piece Waves With Crimson Underlayer

Shoulder-length waves with green money-piece panels framing the face and a crimson red underlayer peeking through deliver Christmas color from every angle. The green brightens your features up front while the red glows underneath, so the look changes as you move. It is dimensional, flattering, and full of holiday depth.

This double-placement technique gives you two reveals for the price of one appointment. Style with soft waves to blend the panels naturally, and maintain with color-depositing conditioners in both shades. A red blouse and a fireside setting make the red-green interplay absolutely luminous.

41. Jeweled Comb Chignon

A low chignon secured with a jeweled hair comb set with red and green stones is heirloom-level Christmas elegance. The smooth, sculpted bun keeps the silhouette classic while the jeweled comb adds the festive color like fine jewelry. It is the hairstyle equivalent of your grandmother’s best brooch — timeless and treasured.

Twist the hair into a neat low chignon, pin securely, then slide the jeweled comb in at an angle so the stones catch the light. A burgundy dress and gala candlelight make the jewels sparkle. This is the look for the most formal night of your holiday season.

42. Dip-Dyed Bob With Crimson Streaks

A chin-length bob with green dip-dyed ends and crimson red streaks through the top layers packs two kinds of Christmas color into one chic cut. The red streaks brighten the crown while the green ends anchor the look, creating a layered color story that looks intentional and fashion-forward. Short hair has never looked this festive.

Ask for the red streaks to be painted through the top and the green concentrated on the bottom two inches for the clearest read of both colors. A red turtleneck frames the cut beautifully, and Christmas market lights make every shade glow. Refresh with color masks to keep both tones vivid.

43. Velvet Ribbon Crown Braid

A crown braid with red and green velvet ribbons woven through it is the fairytale ending this collection deserves. The braided halo sits like a wreath around your head while the velvet ribbons add plush color and texture through every twist. It is romantic, regal, and the most photographed style at any holiday gathering.

Braid two Dutch braids from each temple, wrapping the velvet ribbons in as you go, then pin them into a crown and tuck the ends. An emerald dress and a decorated tree make this look straight out of a Christmas dream. Save this one for the night you want to feel truly magical.

How To Choose Your Red And Green Christmas Hairstyle

Choosing your red and green Christmas hairstyle starts with deciding how much commitment you want. If you love bold color but fear the grow-out, pick temporary options like tinsel extensions, clip-in colored pieces, or wash-out wax — they deliver the full festive effect and disappear on your schedule. If you are ready for real color, peekaboo panels and money pieces give maximum impact with minimal maintenance, while dip-dyed ends can simply be trimmed away in January.

Next, match the style to your plans and your hair. Formal galas call for polished updos like the holly-pinned French twist or jeweled chignon, while casual gatherings are perfect for bows, headbands, and playful space buns. Consider your texture too: curly and coily hair shows off tinsel and temporary color beautifully, sleek hair makes ribbons and bows look crisp, and short cuts shine with tipped or streaked color. Whatever you choose, keep both red and green visible somewhere in the look — that balance is what makes the Christmas palette sing.
