Is your column filling up with festive bookings? This sleek up-do could be the perfect look for parties and events

Celebrate the diversity of long hair with this low twisted double bun – a high-impact but easy style that adds drama and sophistication.

Here, Josh Woodman shares the technique and Denman tools for this party season style…

Model with copper hair styled in two twisted low buns, with a sleek centre parting

Step 1

Detangle and smooth the hair using a Denman D90l Ultra Detangler. Thoroughly prep the hair, working mousse through the lengths. Create a sharp centre part with the Denman DPC1 Pin Tail Comb and then in short strokes work down the hair from root to tip.

Step 2

Using an elastic or hair bunjee, create a low pony at the nape. Divide the pony into two equal sections and twist.

Step 3

Continue twisting the two sections through to the end keeping tension. Gently use the tail of the comb to tease out sections if you prefer a looser look.

Step 4

Continue twisting the twisted pony in on itself to create a figure of eight and secure with pins. Repeat for the other side, taking care to position the twisted buns symmetrically.

Step 5

Using the Denman DPC1 Tail Comb refine the perimeter from hairline to bun. Spray the comb with a little hairspray to tame any stray hairs.

Step 6

Spray over with a little shine spray and use the side of the tail on the buns for refinement. Tease and reshape using the tail as required.

The result is an elegant up-do with bags of polish.
