Step #1:
Start with completely dry hair. Apply a little shine serum to give your twisted chignon a polished look. Brush all the hair back to an inch (2.5 cm) above the nape of your neck. Gather it tightly and secure the hair with a hair elastic (use two if your hair is thick).
Step #2:
Take the hair that is out of the tail and twist it to the end.
Step #3:
Twist it further until the twists bunch up and start to create the bun shape.
Step #4:
Wind your twisted hair around the hair elastic and pin it in place using bobby pins. To finish off the look, use a firm-hold hairspray. (Optional – I usually don’t)
