To achieve a perfectly round, voluminous chignon bun, stock up on these must-have tools. Start with a brush and comb to smooth your hair and tame flyaways. Secure everything with bobby pins and an elastic band. The star accessory? A foam donut bun former—choose one matching your hair color for a seamless look. Available in various sizes, select one proportional to your hair's thickness for the best results.
Begin on damp hair for maximum volume: add rollers, then let it dry fully. Remove rollers and gather into a high, tight ponytail, brushing smooth from crown to nape for a polished finish—no bumps allowed in a pro hairstyle! Slide the foam donut onto the ponytail, then wrap and tuck the hair around it completely, combing each section smooth. Secure with bobby pins hidden underneath. Finish with hairspray—even glitter-infused for holiday glam that lasts all night!
