Follow these simple step by step updos instructions to get this look!

1. When wet, flip your hair upside down and spray a fine layer of mousse or volumizing spray on the underside. Crunch with your hands as you blowdry to create wave. Flip upright and repeat on the top. If your hair is very straight you may need to spend some time curling with a 1 inch curling iron after.

2. Tease the under layer of hair (with a round brush) where the updo will be secured (middle, back area of your scalp). This will help build volume to help you secure the updo properly.

3. Start slightly twisting and pulling back 3-inch sections of your hair toward the area you teased, saving your bangs for last. Keeping in mind the symmetry of the updo, whenever you pull a section from one side, take a similar section from the other side. This will prevent your look from being lopsided.

4. Bobbypin each section to the teased area at the back of your heard (criss-cross the pins to really anchor hair in place). After each section is placed and pinned, lightly mist with hairspray.

5. Gently pull out face framing layers, give them a quick curl with a 1-inch curling iron if need be, and spritz with hairspray to set.

6. Finish the entire look with a spritzing of hairspray and shine spray.

7. Remember to carry some extra bobbypins and a pocket size hairspray in your purse in case of hair emergency.
