Updo How-To: The All- Purpose Bun

To achieve this casual chic hairstyle.

1. Apply mousse to wet hair, from the roots all the way to the ends.

2. Dry your whole head with just warm air-no brush. Work your hands around in order to build volume at the roots.

3. Pull the hair back gently and softly so it doesn't look carefully constructed, then twist the back into a messy bun. Secure using straight hairpins, twisting each pin as you insert it to create texture all around the head. A bit of messiness and a few flyaways are OK.

4. Finish with hairspray.
