Step 1:

Tease out your hair gently to give it lots of volume. Then, pull it back smoothly into a loose but high pony tail.

Step 2:

Pull the end of the pony tail up toward the front of your head at a 45-degree angle, and begin rolling the end down toward the crown of your head. Spiral the hair so that it’s winding up into a ball.

Step 3:

Use plain or bejeweled bobby pins to pin the hair down to the crown of your head so you have a high chignon-style look. Use as many pins as necessary to hold the look in place; it has to last throughout the ceremony and the reception. Then, use your fingers to pull the “roll” out and apart a little bit.

Step 4:

Spray the hair like crazy with super hold hairspray. Then, you’ll want to place the tiara on your head, or if you won’t be using a tiara, you can utilize crystal hair combs or flower pins to make the look a little more formal.
