The classic French roll is the epitome of elegance, but adding twists gives it a modern, bohemian twist that’s perfect for weddings or a fancy dinner. I remember creating this style for a client with long, thick hair, and the textured twists added so much more interest than a smooth roll.
The Modern Twist on a Classic:
Create a Low Ponytail: Pull your hair into a low ponytail, but don’t pull the hair all the way through on the last loop of the hair tie. You should have a looped ponytail.
Twist & Tuck: Divide the looped hair into two sections. Twist each section tightly, then twist them around each other. Tuck the ends of the twist underneath the bun.
Secure & Pull: Use bobby pins to secure the entire bun and the twisted sections firmly to your head. The final, crucial step: gently pull on the sides of the roll and the twists to loosen them slightly for a soft, romantic look.
It’s a sophisticated style that looks far more complicated than it actually is.
