Step 1: Part The Hair
Start with a deep side parting, using the arch of the brow as a guide.
Step 2: Curl The Front Of The Hair
Take about 3 inches of hair from the front of the head, and curl it quite tightly around the curling wand, curling away from the face, then pin the curl up with a clamp and leave to cool.
Step 3: Curl The Sides And Back Of The Hair
Continue curling the hair round the back of the head, starting quite high up on the length of the hair.
Step 4: Backcomb The Top Of The Head
Take sections from the crown of the head and backcomb about 1 or 2 inches using the backcombing brush. This will give the look some lift.
Step 5: Start Building The Bun
Start pinning the general shape of the bun using the kirby grips, then give it a spray to hold it in place.
Step 6: Pin The Curls In Place
Take the curls from the back and sides of the head, bring them into the bun and start pinning them. You want quite a lot of volume, so if you are running out or hair you can backcomb some of the curls.
Step 7: Pin Front Curl
Take the clip out of the curl at the front of the head, follow the natural curl around, and pin it in place along the side of the head.
Step 8: Set Hair
Once you're happy with the look, give it a good spray with hair spray to hold everything in place.
