OK, so what do Heidi Klum, Eva Longoria and Kate Beckinsale all have in common? The Chignon! It is a classy, easy-to-do, hair style that is perfect for any season or occasion.
Do it yourself with 9 easy steps.
What you’ll need: a comb, hairspray, rubber band, bobby pins
1. Part hair at the center or side. Smooth down with hairspray.
2. Spray roots at the crown (the area at the top back of the head).
3. Separate the hair on the crown into ½-inch sections.
4. Backcomb (in ’80s lingo: “rat”) the sections to create height, then smooth.
5. Take the side pieces (leaving thin strands on either side of face) and bring them together at the back of the head, fastening with crisscrossed bobby pins.
6. Make a ponytail and spray it with hairspray.
7. Backcomb the entire ponytail, smooth, and tuck the tail underneath. Pull the roll apart at the sides into a fan shape. Secure with bobby pins on each side.
8. Twist remaining side strands away from face and crisscross to either side of the chignon. Pin underneath.
9. Tuck in the loose ends, smooth, and spray
