Low Chignon Hair Tutorial
High Five For Friday!
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.

Hello i was wondering what virgin hair consisted of, if any of you know, id love to know, Thanks!
Hi, Jason π I’m pretty sure the term “virgin hair” refers to undyed, unchemicalized hair.
This is one of my favorite hairstyles to wear on a casual date night!
This is gorgeous! Love this hairstyle! Thanks for sharing π
Why does it say the video is private? I would really love to watch it!
just updated it!
This video will not play. It says it is private? Please fix! lol
just updated it!
UM. love.

I love this but my hair seems to be much heavier than yours. More bobby pins or am I screwed for this style?
try it– use more pins!
Gorgeous!! You need to also list make up used in hair videos…the whole look is beautiful!!
Adorable, as always!
Where are those earrings from? They highlight the hair perfectly!
Loft!
I love this! And I love that you don’t have to have super long hair to pull it off! Thanks for the tutorial π

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! π
Thank you! I’ve always wondered how to make this a “polished” look – now I have the secret. Cheers!
This has been my go-to look for dressy events. It’s so classy but still fun.

Great tutorial! I love this look!
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. π But I may have to try doing this one. It’s so adorable yet sophisticated.
Also, I must know what your lippie is…? Please???
So pretty! Can’t wait to try this. Thanks for sharing!
Well you’ve gone and done it again!! So pretty Kate!
Perfect! Again!!!! I love this! I’m going to try it tonight!!!!!

Soooo, let me get this straight! The Dr only remeovd the top half of it?! What was the point? In my experience, keloids always grow back and usually even bigger than the original
I wish I could change my hair that often. I have a plbroem getting to my hair girl. I’m waiting for someone to figure out how to get an online hair cut and color then I’m set. Cute pics!
Great new hair idea! Love it.
Thank you so much, I was looking for exactly this! Can’t wait to try it.

You look absolutely beautiful!!! OMG!!!

Sure!
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 @ http://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. π
oh man! you didn’t have good luck like I did! π
Nope, not at all! Plus now I have to get those horrible shots!
My hair is probably about 5 inches longer than yours, can I get this to work? It is a gorgeous style-
absolutely!
It’s almost a reverse of your Wrapped Bun tutorial from last May! I don’t know how you come up with these hairstyles. Love them all!
Be careful taikng medical advice from Yahoo Answers.Some of the answers to your last question were bizarre, especially the one about masturbation causing torsion of the testis.One testis larger than the other may be a result of mumps, but you should seek proper medical advice about this in your case.Sperm count tests involve examining a fresh semen sample. They are not expensive as tests go, but obviously require some privacy to produce. Talk to your doctor about this.
I live in Fairfield , CA. that is the Northren part. I live in Northren CA inland area with some ocean iclnuefne, summer days are hot between 90 to 103F & winter days between 40 to 50 F.After reading where you are all from I’m not sure I picked the right color. Does any of that sound like wear any of you live?
very classy look. love this on you! xo

Love your blog! I visit everyday. What are your favorite blogs? I’d like to check those out as well.
My hair just does not work like hers!
My hair is too thick for this one ?
Gorgeous my darling!! u look beautiful, luv watching ur video, very easy to understand. I feel i can do that on my female friends. Thankx for sharing.
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?
This is Soooo pretty!!!! Can’t wait to give it a try.
Do you have any suggestions for how to make this style work for long hair?
Really love this updo. You could wear this for work or evening or even just a day at home.
Your hair is glorious. That sounds creepy, but it really is so beautiful!

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.
Wow! What a great blog you have published. I adore it and will share to my friends.Thanks!

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 π
I love all your hairstyles. Their beautiful.
this is random but what lipstick are you wearing i love it!
I love your posts. They are so easy, breezy, and beautiful!
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!
I Like Your Artikel.. good Posting
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!!!

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/
Why can’t I see the video?
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

Hey Kate!
I love this look! I would like some advice on how to prep my hair. I have natural wave to my hair and it’s about the same length as your is here. My question is whether or not to blow dry and curl my hair with a curling iron or if you think I should air dry with my natural texture. Thanks!

I think this will be my wedding hair π Thank you!
Awesome post. Video you posted in this article was helps me to know how do I get long hair.
I noticed that Regina posted a while back that she had longer hair. I do as well and am having serious trouble with what to do with all the extra hair once I have crossed the top hair over the bun. Do you have any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate the help!! By the way I absolutely love all of your tutorials!!
Hi Kate, this is Clare from Melbourne Australia. I found your blog a few days ago. I followed your loose waves and low chignon tutorials tonight and wore my hair to a fancy dinner/birthday party. I had so many compliments. Thank you for your tutorials. They were so easy to follow and worked well!
Great post, you have pointed out some wonderful details regarding hair wigs.Thanks for sharing your information.

Does this work with waist length hair?
No way to know except to try it!…although I tried it with my very thick, middle of the back-length hair and it was just too much. It was a pretty enough updo, but not at all neat and clean like hers was. Part of that is surely my lack of talent, but the extra hair definitely made it tricky.
My “twist” looked much more like the one in her tutorial, rather than the one in her pictures, but again, that was my lack of talent/practice, not the length of my hair…
GOD, this is amazing hairstyle which I really adored, the color of your hair also is my favorite, but who can tell me why did I failed in try on every time?
Hi Kate
We in Toronto love your site!
What kind of bobby pins do you use? Are there bobby pins for up-dos?
Thanks!
I never ‘do’ anything to my hair, but thought I’d follow this tutorial for a job interview I had, and the tutorial was awesome to follow – EVen i could do it – and my hair stayed neat, pretty, and – most importantly – it stayed put! And I got the job π I’m sure my cute hair helped some. Seriously though, because I wasn’t worried about my hair being messy or falling onto my face, I was more confident in the interview π Thank You! Am now a fan of your blog.
Awesome tutorial! I had it on my sisters graduation and I got so many compliments!
I actually used a donut because I have a little shorter hair.

Thanks!
I absolutely love this! Im so glad I found your page because I’m not very good at styling my hair so these tutorials help so much! My hair doesn’t end up looking like yours does but I keep practicing to get it right. But thank you for the videos! I don’t have to just wear my hair down everyday now (:
Sara,I have question.My hair color is dark brown/black. I want to dye my hair into dark red / buugrndy. I don’t want to bleaching my hair.I want to use permanent dye. I live in Indonesia. Commonly available brands are L’oreal and Garnier. Do you have any suggestions, what color suit me? And which products are right for me and should I use?I also want to have a few streaks/highlights in my hair with bright colors. Such as blonde, or whatever fits.I don’t know if it matters, but my skin is yellow Asia. So it might be to adjust the color of my hair.Thank you so much
Judy I wish I could tell you! But frost dates are not organized by zip code. You rellay need to go to the and follow the instructions. I just added a screencast to help walk you through the process.Depending on where you live, your frost dates may not be listed in my chart. I am working on a solution for those who have earlier frost dates.
Love this! Just featured your tutorial in our ‘dress of the week’ section for any Brides. So easy!
Kate,
First, your hair tutorials have been such a huge help. Thank you! A couple questions about this style:
In the video you pin the bun to your head at the top AFTER wrapping the two sides. However, in the still shots it looks like you see more of the wrapped hair. (I’m guessing they were taken at a different time.) Did you follow the same procedure and just pin the top of the bun to your head below the wrapped hair? I really like that look.
Secondly, I have just slightly longer hair but all one length. It seems I have way more hair wrapping around the bun. How should I handle the excess length? Pin it underneath? It is almost long enough, but not quite, to go around the whole thing. Thanks!!
Super cute! Love this! Thanks for this tutorial. π
This looks like the perfect updo for work! My hair is longer than yours (about chest length), what would you recommend doing with the ends? I tried wrapping it twice around the bun, but it looks a little funky. Should I pin them inside?
Love your videos, it makes it easier to have cute hair styles. Thank you!
I just did this upod and love it!
hey this was extremely helpful and i was lucky to find your page but i have thick frizzy long hair and even with loads of hair spay or things like that i cant seem to control them also my hair is Indian type which is pretty useless and until it is in a braid can u please suggest some hairstyles for it….
thank again
Help! Can you recommend a great bobby-pin brand that does not snag and pull the hair when it is taken out? I have tried several brands with no luck.
Thanks! Great blog.
These are perfect. I’ve got a Christmas party to head to Thursday and really need a quick and easy up-do.
My hair is much longer than yours. Will it still work?
Hello,
Ces chignons sont tellement mignons ! et tellement simple Γ faire:-)
Taozia
I love all of these styles and your blog! I have had 40 different hairstyles this week already and it’s only Tuesday! Thank you for explaining and demonstrating so well! This is my new favorite blog!!
Does this work well on long hair??
I love the tutorials!
I tried this hair do yesterday for the third time & finally got it! Only thing is, my hair is obviously thinner than yours, Kate, so my bun was much smaller. Any tips on making it bigger?
What if your hair is longer and you have more hair sticking out at the ends ?
I have naturally super curly, long, thick hair and I have a really hard time finding hairstyles that will work plus look good with my hair. In the summer time it gets extremely humid where I live at and to wear my hair down is just annoying a lot of the times and I absolutely LOVE this hairstyle. Will this work with my hair and do you have any suggestions of different hairstyles I could try? Anyone with any ideas please let me know!!
Thank you so much!
I tried this using the video, I really liked the style but it did not work for me.
This is exactly what I was looking for. My sister’s wedding is next month and I now have my hairstyle. Thanks for sharing!
I tried to do this with the video and I think because my hair is a lot longer I had a really hard time figuring out what to do with the ends from the beginning side bun created behind the ear point on… I noticed at least a few other comments about this too, does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this adorable look with long hair? π Thanks in advance!
this is beautiful!! I need to try it!!
Found you on the blog issue site.
Love the wispy look of this loose bun.
Can’t wait to try it!
Love it! Wearing it to a job interview. Thanks!
This looked great on your hair, but when I tried it on mine, it ended up looking like a mess. If you have a chance, can you post a tutorial for people with really thin, straight, long hair? It’s hard to find videos with stuff like that in it.
I second this request!!
This hairstyle is perfect for everyday stuff; elegant, yet easy and simple. Awesome!
it is very interesting! Thank you!
You did a really great job of explaining how to accomplish the low chignon. This is normally a style I would pay for someone else to do to me. will definitely be checking out your other hairstyle videos. I also love your energy and how real and at ease you are. Thanks for what you do and being you.
I have been looking at some of your posts and they are all awesome, keep up the good work. I am defo going to try this hairstyle on my lace wig unit.
Love this so much!
You are adorable! Thank you for this video, I canβt wait to try this!
How do those pics demonstrate how to make this chignon? Doh!
Hi
I donβt see a video, is one still available?
Iβd love to give it a try
Thanks
Is there a way to get the video for this tutorial back up again?
