00:09Hey everyone, it's Taylor from Refinery29. One of our favorite looks from the spring 2013
00:14runways was the twisted updo at the row. So today I'm going to show you a simple version
00:18you can do at home. Anytime I'm doing an updo, I like to start with my hair a little bit
00:23dirty and textured. So today I have a simple wave in it and I'm going to add the Bumble
00:28and Bumble Brillantine cream to it. This is going to add a little bit of texture to the
00:33roots and the shaft of the hair, while also giving it a lot of shine, which is going to
00:38be really good for this look. I'm just going to rub this through on the ends. And I'm going
00:48to go in and add a little bit more closer to the roots of my hair, just to give it
00:53a little
00:54bit of extra hold.
01:03So for the runway look, there was actually a lot of intricate things that went into this
01:07hairdo, but we're going to go ahead and fake it here today. So the first step is to pull
01:10the hair back into a half pony. So I'm going to just take the top part of my hair, and
01:15you
01:15can kind of just do it haphazardly because this look was very loose and very sort of undone.
01:21And securing it lightly in the back, we're going to twist it, twisting the right section over
01:28the left section. We're going to secure it like this. I'm going to loosen it up a little
01:36bit, though, before I do that.
01:48So the next step is to section the hair off into two sections, almost like you're going
01:52to do pigtails. And then taking one side, we're going to twist it all the way around.
02:08And then pin it up into itself. So we're going to go around in a horseshoe shape. And then going
02:21into the next section, we're going to do the same thing. But this time we're going to curl
02:29underneath the bun. Once you've secured the end in, you can go out and around the tendril,
02:45put bobby pins in as you go, just to make sure it's secured in place. So there you have it,
03:00a super easy to do translation of a runway do.
