About the Twisted Elegance Updo

Cut & Silhouette: Description: An elegant updo with a voluminous, curled, and braided crown, featuring sleek, pulled-back sides. Key Details: The hair on the sides and back is pulled back tautly and secured into an updo. The crown area is styled with intricate braided elements leading into soft, voluminous curls. Strong contrast between the flat sides and the full, textured top. Ear coverage: above-ear (ears fully exposed). Sideburns: pulled back tautly, exposing the tragus. Nape/neckline: Not visible (hair gathered into updo). Length: Overall: Updo style; original hair length is not visible but appears long enough to be swept up entirely. Front: Swept back smoothly from the forehead, integrated into the updo. Sides: Pulled back flat against the head, exposing temples and ears. Back/Nape: Not visible (hair gathered into updo). Fringe: No fringe; front hair is swept back. Front/Bangs & Parting: Description: No bangs; front hair is swept back smoothly from the forehead and incorporated into the updo, with braided sections framing the upper head. Parting: No distinct part; hair is styled back from the forehead. Texture & Finish: Natural Texture: Wavy (Type 2B-2C), appearing to be pre-curled or styled for the updo. Styled Finish: Sides are sleek and smooth, with a polished, satin finish. The crown features tousled, voluminous curls and defined braided textures. Minimal flyaways on the sides; soft frizz around curls on top. Styling tool: curling wand, brush, pins/clips. Hold level 3/5 (medium hold hairspray or cream). Volume & Density: Description: Very high volume at the crown and top due to the gathered curls and braided sections. Sides and visible back are very low volume, pulled flat against the head. Thickness: Medium to thick; dense coverage where hair is gathered on top. Color: Base Color: Light blonde, warm-neutral tone. Multi-tonal Effects: Subtle highlights or balayage with a shadow root of approximately 0.75 in (2 cm) in a slightly darker blonde tone; brighter blonde through the mid-lengths and ends, especially prominent in the curls.
