This is one of those hairstyles that doesn't look nearly as polished and put together until the very, very end. As you are styling, you may think to yourself, "Oh man. This is a disaster." Press on, my friend. You will fix everything up at the end.
Just beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing! Your tutorials helped me have the patience to grow my hair out after 10 years! I am having so much fun styling my hair b/c of your tutorials. We have a black tie event to attend in two weeks and I can't wait to rock this do! :)
I love watching your tutorials...but I honestly have yet to try doing one. I get so impatient...I'm afraid I won't be able to do it & start throwing things. :) But I may have to try doing this one. It's so adorable yet sophisticated.
Also, I must know what your lippie is...? Please???
this is one of my favorites of all your looks thus far. so glamorous and chic for a special occasion cannot wait to try! xx. gigi. food and beauty blogger @ www.gigikkitchen.blogspot.com
I can not wait to try this one out! Love all your tutorials!
So about your post the other day... I went to the dentist today. Well I don't floss either so I was nervous about that! Well guess how many cavities I have!? 4!!! In between my teeth. Yay! Another dentist appointment next week. :(
Just found your blog yesterday, and love it! Thx for the tutorials on simple but spectacular hair. I have brown/auburn hair, and have been looking for a texturizing powder that doesn't add a white "cloud" look to my hair. The white powders show up on my hair no matter how little I use, or how well I work them in. Any suggestions?
I have really long hair and after experimenting for ages I might have a couple of tips for you other ladies with long hair. You may not need to tease if you already have lots of hair, but do use a texturising product. When you pull the bun through, pull it through just to the size of the chignon you want at the end. There will be lots of hair hanging out the bottom, just leave it for now. When you cross the sides over they will also leave long ends hanging out the bottom of your bun. Pin them in place. Then grab another clear elastic, gather all the hair hanging loose from the bottom of the bun and wrap it up around your bun to the top, and secure the whole thing at the base with your elastic. Then finish the hairstyle as the tutorial says, pinning at the top, bottom and sides. Also, because your hair will be much heavier you'll need loads of pinning to hold it in place. I hope that makes sense and helps you out if you have long hair like mine.
I've tried the texturizing powder before and found it really hard to wash out of my hair?! I have a Unite powder and love it while it's in, but when I try to wash it out my shampoo will barely lather and it takes a few washes (over a few days) before my hair feels really clean again. Is it just this brand or are all texturizing powders like this? I don't use it much because of the hassle of getting it out :(
I just tried this! It went really well. It looks a little funky but I am new at long hair (just growing it out... I've had it short my entire adult life!) and this was an easy to follow tutorial. Thanks!
Hi, Can you tell me what lipstick you are wearing in the video?? You have similar coloring to me and i have a hard time finding one i like! Thanks so much!!!

Hi ! I am Finn teen girl.. You have really nice blog I like so much :)) Do you want see my blog ? This is my blog:http://jassun1djajussu.blogspot.fi/ Follow me? :)
Just wore this style to a wedding. Simple and elegant. Still have some fine tuning to do (I must have thick hair because I had trouble pinning the bun up closer to my head. The bobby pins would fall out. So I just tried it with less amounts of hair and that seemed to work. I had so many bobby pins in at one point, I couldn't fit more, or they would push others out.) Also want to try the texturizing powder next time. Thanks so much for your awesome tutorials! Here's a pic of my 'low chignon' do: http://pinterest.com/pin/5418462024158055/
Kate, thank you so much for this tutorial. You have saved my hair from boring ponytails! Lol... I love the variety of styles and have watched several videos. I also pinned a bunch of your styles to my Pinterest page to share with friends known and unknown. Thanks again. Love the blog and am now a subscriber. Oh and kuddos to your photographer and lighting! Cheers, Elle
