"When I posted about a reader&amp;#x27;s gorgeous DIY French twist yesterday, some of you were like &amp;quot;been there, tried that, failed.&amp;quot; Well here&amp;#x27;s a cool updo idea I&amp;#x27;m pretty sure you have never seen, let alone tried before. This fun &amp;quot;twist&amp;quot; on a basic bun was created for the Blanc de Chine Spring 2011 show on October 14 by Amanda Jenkins, master stylist for Arrojo NYC. The front view on a different model (you could make the roots less peaked up top by moving the twist further back, if you wanted): Pretty, right? And I suspected pretty easy to do, so I asked for Amanda&amp;#x27;s how-to. Here it is! 1. Mix hair gel with some texture paste and work through from roots to ends, then comb through; the hair will have a bit of a wet look 2. Make a side part from the corner of the eye and pull the front section of hair across to the top of the ear on the opposite side. 3. Pull the rest of the hair into a ponytail, leaving that front section out. 4. Tightly twist the ponytail and coil into a bun and pin. 5. Slick back the front section, twist, and wind around the back of the head; coil into the bun and pin. One last awesome tip from Amanda: Finish the look by drenching a tissue with hairspray and running it over flyaways to tame them, instead of just spraying directly on the hair (where it can look too shiny) or using your fingers, which can break up the style.
