Hair up & adding accessories

Hair for fashion and beauty

Using accessories within a Chignon

Products and equipment:
  • Pintail comb
  • Sectioning clips
  • Hair band
  • Hair pins & grips
  • Hairspray
  • Various accessories


Step by step:
  1. Section the hair with two front sections, either with a side or middle parting – depending on
     your preference. Leave the back section.
  2. With the back section of hair create a smooth low ponytail with your hair band.
  3. Begin back combing the ponytail with your pintail comb, this will then create texture and shape into this section. You should then fold the hair upwards and inwards to create the chignon shape. You should use hair grips to gold the hair in place. The shape of the chignon should be smooth.
  4. You can then experiment with the front sections and use accessories in the hair to create different feels to the hairstyle.
  5. When the desired hair style is completed use hair spray to finish.


While playing around with the two front sections I decided to create a 50’s roll and pin curl details in the back of the hair. I also used some twisting and plaiting in these sections and applied different accessories.
