The sleek chignon
This ballerina-inspired top-knot is sophisticated and strong. Make it extra-glossy with some finishing spray or a shine serum.
The simple ponytail
Soft and pretty, this side ponytail is just the right amount of undone for an updo. Even better, it takes about 10 seconds flat to achieve.
A little bit of drama
Styled together or separate, here are two quick ways to amp up your look:
1. Switch your regular part to a deep, dramatic side part.
2. Go for some backcombing at your crown. The nod to a sexy, mod hairstyle oozes confidence.
A romantic twist
A little bit Brigitte Bardot, a little bit mermaid, these natural waves look effortless pulled back into a half-updo. Loosen a few pieces at the front to naturally frame your face.
The bombshell blowout
A voluminous, high-shine blowout is always a winner in our books. Just make sure to strengthen your locks before styling with a heat-protectant product.
