Drama? Check. Glamour? Check. Super Easy? Double check. "This is a simple yet sophisticated look that can be achieved in 2 minutes or less," Antin says.
Begin by pulling the back of your hair into a low side ponytail and use a small clear elastic to secure. Next, fasten the rest of your hair (top) into a second ponytail, positioned directly above the first. "Back comb both ponytails for more volume and gently finger comb ends together into one main ponytail," Antin says. "Wrap the hair around the base and tease as desired."
When you envision a bun, you typically revert to the old standbys -- topknot or a classic ballet bun. Am I right? While these go-to hairstyles will satisfy your updo needs, it's time to add spring's hottest new hairstyle into your rotation: the low bun.
Yes, I'm talking about the same low bun that often gets a bad rap (it's how your third grade teacher wore her hair every day, after all). But this old-school hairstyle has gotten a major upgrade. The low bun was seen all over the catwalk during fashion week this season and it's turning up on the red carpet. Jennifer Lawrence wore a gorgeous low bun at the Oscars and even the queen (er, Duchess, officially) of long, loose hair -- Kate Middleton -- is a fan.
To get the scoop on the five best low bun styles for spring, we went straight to celebrity hairstylist and Bravo TV star Jonathan Antin, who broke down the how-to steps for each look. Which one will you try this spring?
