"I happen to know that lots of you are being driven batty by hair static at the moment. That&amp;#x27;s why I happen to think that lots of you are going to love this sweet-and-simple, hair-taming updo idea that I spotted on Natalie Portman. Natalie wore this look at the Palm Springs Film Festival over the weekend. It&amp;#x27;s so elegant but really so do-able for any day of the week, even during serious static season. This is an easy upgrade to a ponytail, and it&amp;#x27;s an even better way to keep static at bay. All you have to do: 1. Make a deep side part. 2. Smooth your hair back and gather it as if you&amp;#x27;re going to make a low pony, only take a second to pull out a small section of hair on the underside. 3. Leave that section free and pretend you&amp;#x27;re putting the rest of your hair in a pony, only stop when the tail is looped over itself (don&amp;#x27;t pull the tail all the way through). 4. Wind that loose section of hair up and around the elastic to cover it; tuck the ends underneath and secure out of sight with a bobby pin or two. 5. Smooth on some styling cream or pomade to keep flyaways down and mist with hairspray for staying power. What do you guys think of Natalie&amp;#x27;s cute updo? Is this something you&amp;#x27;d wear?
