A clean, formal hairstyle can be the perfect addition to a formal dress or work attire. Knowing do formal hairstyles also can come in handy on occasions such as a prom or a wedding, when others spend money getting their hair done at salons. There are two formal hairstyles appropriate for just about any formal or dressy occasion: the classic chignon and the side-bun.
Instructions
Classic Chignon
1. Brush your hair into a sleek ponytail at the nape of your neck. Smooth away bumps by squeezing them with your thumb and index finger and gently running your hand along the strands of hair until you reach the nape of your neck. Secure the ponytail with a rubber band.
2. Split the ponytail in half. Tease the sections of hair by backbrushing to add volume. To backbrush your hair, grab a section of the ponytail at the tips of your hair. With a hairbrush, brush your hair from the tips of your hair to the base of the ponytail.
3. Twist one section around the base of the ponytail and secure with bobby pins. Repeat with the other section. Smooth down any frizz with hairspray.
Side-Bun
4. Brush your hair into a low-side ponytail. Don't worry about bumps or fly-away hair. In fact, if you prefer, pull out a few bits of hair to have a more bohemian, effortless look. Do not secure the ponytail with a rubber band.
5. Begin twisting the ponytail from the tips of your hair until it is tightly coiled. Wrap the coil around itself until you have a bun on the side of your head. Pull out pieces of hair if you wish to have a more bohemian look.
6. Secure with a rubber band and bobby pins.
