00:08Hi, I'm Tara from Refinery29.
00:10And I'm Michael Duingas.
00:11And today I'm going to teach you how to put your hair up in a fun, different way.
00:15Cool.
00:15You want to start this look by sectioning off a horseshoe shape at the top of your head.
00:19So just at your recession, all the way around through the crown of your head.
00:45You're going to start a French braid on the side of your head and braid all the way back
00:49to the middle.
00:50Once you reach the middle of your head, secure with an elastic, leaving the ends out.
01:07So once you finish braiding the sides and the back, drop the top section down.
01:11And you want to lightly backcomb to get a little bit of volume, but keeping texture in the hair.
01:20Once backcombed, bring all the hair back into a very loose ponytail, combining it with your braids.
01:29Twist the remaining ponytail into a tight bun and secure with a bob pin.
01:34Once you've finished with your bun, spray the top with hairspray.
01:38Place your fingers between your hair to create separation and spray to create a PC effect.
01:47With a little bit of braiding and backcomming, you can put a modern twist on a chignon.
