Chignon How to (In 3 Easy Steps)

“Chignon How ToIf you’re looking for an evening hairstyle you can create at home, Danny DuBose of Bob Steele Salon in Atlanta says your best bet is a low chignon. “It’s easiest to create this look if you have mid-to shoulder-length hair with longer layers or hair that’s one length,” he explains.

Here’s how to do it:

  1. Working from ear to ear, divide the head into two parts, front and back. “That lets you determine if you want a part in front or plan to wear hair all off the face,” says DuBose.
  2. Take the back section and create a smooth ponytail, catching it with a coated elastic. Then flip it up and move it back through the band so it lies flat against the crown. ‘Next, take the hair that’s in the ponytail, Sub-divide it and pin it at the base of the neck.”
  3. As a finishing touch, create a part, then smooth out one side with a brush. Bring it toward the back of the head and wrap it around the tail to conceal the elastic. “Do the same on the other side. Use a holding spray like Aveda Air Control to keep strands in place.”
