• Hair how-to: the bird’s nest bun

    by  • January 8, 2011 • Did You See This?, Hair Tips

    Back when it appeared on the Lanvin spring 2010 runway, we termed it a birds-nest topknot that’s Hitchcock heroine meets modern-day bedhair; and, as 2011’s hair trends continue to evolve it’s the type of topknot that’s come out on top (pardon the pun). Why? It can still be a little wispy, a little messy; but it’s elegant. Thus, it’s a runway hair trend that we’ve already seen translated to the red carpet.

    Chanel carried the look over to pre-fall 2011, ornamented by embellished headbands.

    How to create a bird’s nest topknot

    1. First, apply liberal amounts of Oribe Creme For Style to the mid-lengths and ends of the hair.
    2. Blast with a hairdryer to dry the mousse into the hair.
    3. Pull the hair up into a very high ponytail on the top of the head.
    4. Divide the ponytail into several sections then tease each section with a comb, creating lots of volume and texture (it should look a little crazy right now so don’t be alarmed… it will soon be tamed!)
    5. Brush the ponytail out just a little bit to even out the texture, then wrap the hair around the ponytail to create a messy topknot.
    6. Secure with bobby pins all the way around.
    7. Finally, spray the hair with Oribe Super Fine Strong Hairspray.

    For the Chanel pre-Fall 2011 version of the style, simply add a headband – and, if desired, tug out a few loose pieces of hair to create a more wispy finish.

      Have to agree with allison, both of my daughters are twice as tough as Baby James. He is very much so a true coward and NO Coach Lee, he could not play Div II football, at this point I would think his football days are over, and since he is 22, he should concentrate on going to class somewhere else other than Texas Tech. Possibly somewhere out of the country where he can change his name too!
