Discover the options!
- High chignon (elegant bun): Start by brushing your hair back, then apply a setting spray to ensure a solid base. Tie your locks into a high ponytail and, holding the ponytail, use a comb with finer, harder bristles to keep your hair smooth and frizz-free. Twist the length and wrap it around the elastic, forming a bun. Secure with bobby pins and, for a better finish, spray with more hairspray to ensure the bun stays in place all night.
- High Ponytail: Tie your hair into a high ponytail, making sure the roots are tight and aligned. Apply a setting spray to ensure intense hold at the roots and avoid flyaways. Style the length with the curling iron to create soft waves or leave it natural, using more spray on the ends to ensure volume and movement.
- Side Embedded Braid: start the side braid at the fringe, bringing the locks towards the back of the neck and continuing up to the length. For a more voluminous and relaxed effect, lightly pull the sides of the braid. Apply a fixative to ensure strands stay in place, with a gentle hold, sealing cuticles and adding shine.
