Andre Walker's Favorite Easy Party Hairdo

"I often give Oprah this 'demi-up' for parties. It's elegant, classic, flatters any face shape—and can easily be done at home."

Section off the top half of your hair—everything above your ears.

Hold the section up high and lightly tease the underside with a brush or a comb to give it height.

Mist the teased locks with hairspray and smooth into place atop your head; secure at your mid to lower crown with a jeweled comb or rhinestone pins to add festive sparkle.

Optional: For a more dramatic effect, use a curling iron to create a cascade of soft waves or curls in the bottom section of your hair.
