Amy's Tips: How to Create An Elegant Chignon



The chignon is a versatile "updo" hairstyle for a special occasion. It shows off your neck and shoulders, and highlights your cheekbones as well as the great earrings or necklace you are wearing!

Here's how to easily create your own chignon for your upcoming holiday parties:


1. Create a deep side part.
2. Gather all of your hair into a low side ponytail and secure with elastic band.
3. Apply a pump of lumiere nutria-sculpt from Kerastase.
4. Now split the pony tail in half and take the first section at the top of pony and twist one time, like you are setting hair around a roller leaving the ends of hair out and secure with bob pin.
5. Once that piece is secure, you can twist the ends of the same section and pin.
6. Repeat with other half of the pony.
7. Spray chignon with Sheer Lacquer.
8. And if you have bangs try wearing them in a side sweep without too much volume.

Watch Amy demonstrate a chignon on Thursday on Fox Good Day!
