HOW-TO STEPS

• 

  
  1

  Dry hair using the T3 Bespoke Evolution and T3 360 Plump to thicken hair so pins will stay in place. 

  Start by parting hair and creating a crown of hair pins 1-inch above the perimeter of the hairline.

• 

  
  2

  Beginning on one side at the front of the head, take a small piece of hair and start twisting inward, grab half-inch sections and incorporate the twisted hair you already have until you reach the middle of the nape of the neck. Proceed to do the same on the other side.

• 

  
  3

  At the back, crisscross the remaining hair and tuck it into the twist to hide ends. Secure with hair pins. 

  Finish with T3 360 Control hairspray for hold and shine.

• 

  
  4

  To contrast the feminine, sophisticated clothes and to satisfy Carolina’s penchant for a classic updo, Orlando created a well-groomed, boyish updo.

• 

  
  5

  Section off a triangle behind the crown of the head and pull back.

• 

  
  6

  Separate top triangle of hair into two sections, top and bottom. Blow dry each half straight and spray with Volumizing Tonic.

• 

  
  7

  Release both sections of hair and comb together with a fine tooth comb first, then a wide tooth comb (comb lines should be visible), adding more Volumizing Tonic to roots, to create a raked back effect.

• 

  
  8

  Slightly loosen shape with fingers to diminish comb marks and separate with hair pins. Dry with a diffuser.

• 

  
  9

  Pull all hair back, twist and tie into a low-slung knot a bit off center. Pull knot to tighten and finish the look with a light misting of Air Control Hair Spray.

  The look is androgynous with a hint of romance. The front is quite masculine, sides are scuplted with a raked-back effect and the remainder of the hair is tied into a loose, low-slung knot at the nape of the neck.

• 

  
  11

  Make a tight ponytail high on the top of the head.

• 

  
  12

  Twist the ponytail tightly into a coil.

  Wrap coiled ponytail first towards the forehead and then to the back, securing with pins into a bun, sitting high on the head.

• 

  
  13

  Take a Wella highlighted extension, coil, and secure on top of the twisted and already secured ponytail to add height and dimension to the bun.

  This look elaborates the ’40s/’50s era with a “rockabilly” flair created by adding volume to the top of the head in a modern chignon.
