Claire Danes
Follow these steps to master Danes' classic updo:
Step 1: Apply blow dry lotion (try Shu Uemura Art of Hair Satin Design White Tea Polishing Milk, $30) to wet hair then blow dry your strands section by section with a round brush for a shiny, smooth finish. Create a side part.

Step 2: Loosely curl the ends of your hair (from mid-shaft down) with a medium-sized curling iron held vertically.

Step 3: Start gathering your curls to the back of your head (leaving a few face-framing layers free) and begin securing them with bobby pins. Pin all of your hair up into a chignon-like shape. Continue adding bobby pins until the style feels tight and secure. Set with hairspray (try Dove Flexible Hold Aerosol Hairspray with Natural Movement, $4.29).

Lucy Liu
Follow these easy steps to recreate Liu's glam, curled pony:
Step 1: Apply a combo of shine serum (try Ken Paves Shine Serum, $30) and blow dry lotion (try Redken Satinwear 02 Ultimate Blow-Dry Lotion, $19.21) on wet hair, then blow dry hair straight.

Step 2: Curl the mid-shaft to the ends of your hair with a medium-sized curling iron held vertically. Mist with hairspray for hold (try Aveda Air Control Hairspray, $24).

Step 3: Finger comb your curls and secure them into an off-center low ponytail. Flip your tail onto your shoulder so it's visible from the front.

Step 4: Pull out a few face-framing pieces to add softness to the look.

When it comes to holiday parties we all want to look our best, or even better than our best, right? Well, that's why we thought we'd share these nine gorgeous celebrity hairstyles. Copy one of these fun, chic or glamorous hairstyles then pair it with a glam makeup look (like one of the ones seen in this celebrity photo gallery), and you're sure to turn heads this season -- even if you don't have money to spend on a new outfit.

If you're not usually the do-it-yourself hairstyle type, don't fret, we are also going to share step-by-step instructions on how you can recreate these looks easily -- at home. And no, you don't need to be a licensed hairdresser in order to do them.

So, whose hairstyle will it be? Will you go with a dramatic hairstyle, like the updo that Eva Mendes is sporting? Or are you looking for something more classic, like the long layers Reese Witherspoon is wearing or Taylor Swift's faux bob? Or maybe you'll go the boho route with a braided hairstyle like January Jones has. Or heck, if you have more than one party to hit this season, you can try a different one for each occasion. Regardless of the look you choose, we know you'll wear the hairstyle well.
