One of the most popular and classic bridal hairstyles has always been the chignon. This elegant hairstyle can be loose or sleek giving it either a traditional look or more romantic and soft style, fitting for any kind of wedding. Try the look for
yourself by gathering your hair in a low pony to one side or at the nape of the neck and pinning up the ends. You can wrap the ends around for a more traditional looking bun, or pull them out in every direction to achieve a more romantic look. The best part is that it looks great with curly
hair, straight hair, or with twists and braids for a more Greek goddess style. The style works with particularly well with birdcage veils and fascinators. We would love it if our hair looked this elegant every day!

Step 1: Blow out hair with a round brush to add volume.
Step 2: Use a large barrel curling iron to create waves from the ears down.
Step 3: To build volume at the crown, tease hair gently with a fine tooth comb.
Step 4: Gather hair into a low ponytail, twisting hair along the nape of your neck as you go.
Step 5: When you get to your ear, twist the rest of your hair into curls and pin back over the twist.
Step 6: Spritz on some hairspray to hold strands in place, twisting and curling the whispy ends to add texture.
