On Eid mornings, nothing surpasses the joy except your little details that express your elegance — from your carefully chosen dress, to your precise makeup, all the way to your hairstyle that reflects your personality and style. And while you move from house to house, from visiting relatives to evening coffee with friends, the hairstyle remains the biggest challenge. How many times have you left your home with a perfectly smooth look, only to come back hours later to find your hair lost its softness, strands starting to frizz or fall flat, as if you hadn’t put in all that effort?

Here comes the real question: Is it possible to get a smooth, elegant hairstyle that lasts throughout Eid visits, unaffected by heat, constant movement, or even wearing a scarf or hat? The answer is: Yes, absolutely.
In this article, we’ll take you step by step into the world of smooth Eid hairstyles that last for hours without needing constant touch-ups. You’ll get a complete guide—from smart hair washing, to choosing the right serum and spray, to the small details like the direction of combing strands and how to use the flat iron with pictures.
Step 1: Smart Hair Washing Before Eid
Don’t start your hairstyle on Eid morning itself; the real secret to a lasting hairstyle begins the night before:
Wash your hair just one day before Eid because freshly washed hair is often too slippery and soft to hold a style well.
Use a silicone-free and sulfate-free shampoo to avoid residues that might ruin the hold.
Choose a light conditioner only on the ends to avoid weighing down the roots.
Golden tip: After washing, wrap your hair in a cotton towel (not a thick traditional towel) to dry gently and reduce frizz.
Step 2: Prepping for Perfect Softness
This is the step many overlook, yet it’s the key:
When your hair is about 80% dry, apply a light anti-frizz serum, such as ones containing argan oil or keratin.
Use a heat protection spray to shield your strands from the flat iron or blow dryer.
Comb your hair with a wide-tooth comb to evenly distribute the product without breaking strands.
Step 3: Blow-Drying with a Brush for a Smooth Base
Before thinking about any style:
Use a medium-heat blow dryer with a ceramic brush to dry and smooth your hair.
Divide your hair into equal sections and start drying from back to front.
Tip: If you have wavy or slightly curly hair, use a light flat iron after blow-drying for a perfect base. Slowly pass the brush with the blow dryer downwards to achieve smooth, shiny straight hair.
Step 4: Choose a Lasting Hairstyle... The Secret Is Simplicity
Twisted Ponytail
Comb your hair well to detangle.
Gather your hair into a low ponytail and secure it with a clear elastic band.
Make a small hole above the band and flip the ponytail through it (from top to bottom).
Gently pull to tighten the twist and secure it.
Fix everything with a hair setting spray.
Messy Low Bun
Gather all your hair at the nape of your neck.
Twist it loosely into a bun and secure with some pins.
Leave some strands around your face for a natural look.
Use a light spray for a deliberately messy texture.
Half-Up Side Braid
Take a section from the side of your head and start a French braid.
Stop braiding at the middle of your head and pin the braid back with a hairpin.
Leave the rest of your hair down or straighten it with a flat iron.
Halo Twist
Separate a section from the front on each side.
Twist each section towards the back.
Pin each twist at the back of your head, making sure one twist covers the pins of the other.
Apply a bit of light oil or serum for extra smoothness.
Braided Crown
Divide your hair into two halves from the middle.
Make a simple braid on each side.
Lift each braid from back to front and pin it in the shape of a crown.
Use hairpins matching your hair color to hide them.
Soft Waves Look
Spray heat protection spray.
Use a curling iron to curl random strands.
Run your fingers through the curls to loosen them for a natural look.
Finish with a light hold spray.
High Ponytail with Natural Hair Bow
Gather your hair into a high ponytail.
Take a thin strand from the ponytail and wrap it around the elastic to hide it.
Tie the ponytail with a hair clip shaped like a bow and secure it.
Use hairspray to keep the style lasting.
Step 5: Magical Setting Without Hair Feeling "Hard"
Setting doesn’t mean spraying lots of hairspray:
Use a light hold spray (Hold 2 or 3) instead of harsh ones.
Spray from about 30 cm away to avoid shiny spots or a rough texture.
If you have flyaway strands at the front, take an old toothbrush, spray hairspray on it, then smooth down the small strands.
Dear lady,
With these steps, your hairstyle will stay soft, elegant, and fresh throughout all your Eid visits — so you can focus on celebrating with joy and confidence.
