Searching for festive St. Patrick’s Day hairstyles to complement your all green outfit? Well, you’ve come to the right site.
St. Patrick’s Day, also referred to as the Feast of Saint Patrick, is a cultural and religious celebration of Ireland’s foremost patron saint.
Held every year on the date of his death, March 17, St. Patrick’s Day was deemed an official Christian feast day in the early 17th century and is observed by Catholic, Anglican, Lutheran and Eastern Orthodox Churches.
The day honors Saint Patrick (c. AD 385–461) and commemorates the onset of Christianity in Ireland. More so, it is a celebration of Irish culture and traditions.
Celebrations generally involve parades and festivals with Gaelic music, traditional Irish step-dancing and lots of beer. Prideful people often wear green clothing displaying shamrocks.
Shamrocks are a symbol of this holiday because it was believed that Saint Patrick used that word as a metaphor to reference the Holy Trinity.
