We’ve been telling you that this is the year of the hair accessory, and the 2019 Oscars proved our trend-spotting (you DID see Jason Momoa’s pink scrunchie, right?!). This bow bun look by celebrity stylist Justine Marjan (@justinemarjan) on Ashley Graham is a sleek take, adding a touch of 2019 to Ashley’s Old Hollywood-style Zac Posen gown. Scroll for the how-to!

HOW-TO STEPS
1
Prep damp hair with a thermal protectant and blow-dry off a center part with the ghd Air Dryer.
2
Flat iron the roots with the ghd Platinum+ Styler, directing the hair away from the face.
3
Gather the top half of hair, apply gel to the roots and brush back with a flat brush. Secure with an elastic. Repeat on the bottom half.
4
Apply a hairnet over the ponytail and twist into a bun. Secure with French pins.
5
Tuck bows or other hair accessories/jewelry into the bun (Justine used bows from @jenniferbehr), securing with French Pins. Finish with extra hold hairspray.
Pro Tip: Justine uses a toothbrush sprayed with hairspray to smooth sleek styles before the cameras start shooting!
