Low Chignon

Long • Styled look

A low chignon is a smooth bun rolled and pinned at the nape, with the hair swept back loosely from the face. It leaves a clear line of pins above the bun where a veil comb can sit. It is also called a low bun updo. It suits straight or wavy hair past the shoulders.

A quick rolled chignon takes a few minutes; a wedding version is usually done by a stylist at a trial first. Bring the veil to the trial so the comb is placed and tested.
