Today we are sharing a hair tutorial from Silver Cup Artists Erica of Hey Lovely Makeup and Michelle Able Photography! One of the best things about this simple chignon is that it doesn't require a curling iron. In fact, all you need is a hair band and hair pins! So the next time you are hurrying to get ready for brunch with the girls, an evening out, or spending a day seeing a new city try this simple chignon! 

 1. Begin with a low ponytail. For additional volume and texture tease the hair at the crown of your head before securing the ponytail. 

2. Make a topsy ponytail by pulling the pony through the hair at the base of the hair band. 

3. Grab small pieces of hair and begin twisting and pinning them securely near the topsy.

4. Continue pinning and tuck any remaining pieces of hair.
