For The Lucky Bride...Or Her Maids.

Mr. Kabir (Our Phase 3 educator. Yes! I'm in week 3 of Phase 3! Wowza!) taught us how to master le fancy chignon (bun). He did a demonstration and made it look easy as pie, which in practice, IS! Two main design components used in the above include heavy back brushing and smoothening. The on-the-scalp braid is part of my "design decision". Creating the filler (which is the cushion for the bun) was my favorite part of this design. You're essentially creating this giant cloud of cotton candy hair and giving it a form, a sense of sweet structure.
