Paul Jones has a handful of hacks to create showy yet super easy hairstyles for long hair. This chignon bun is stylish and coveted, and it’s an excellent way to style long thick hair.

Here’s how to create an updo: gather your long hair at the back into two low ponytails. Next, twist them and put tiny elastics at the ends. Now, bring both ends up and secure them under the elastics of each ponytail base. Then, bring one twist through the loop of another and secure your gorgeous chignon with hairpins. One of the best bun types to try, indeed.

Try one of the chic, trendy, and super easy hairstyles for long hair: two topsy tails at the crown! This cute half up half down hairstyle will help you take the locks away from your face while not compromising the beautiful look of long hair. By the way, you can eventually finish off the topsy tails with space buns.

Center part your hair and, leaving out the front face-framing pieces, make two ponytails on the crown as if you are going to create half up space buns. Then, turn these into topsy tails: use your fingers to make a hole under the base of your pony and bring the ponytail through this hole. That’s it — flaunt your beautifully styled hair or add some soft waves to bring the style to the next level.

Chignon is a graceful yet easy hairstyle to pull off in just a few minutes. Perfect for all occasions! You can wear it sleek or keep some loose bangs at the front for face-framing.

Brush your hair, create a center part, and then pull the hair into a low pony at the back. Put an elastic around the ponytail. Next, create a hole on the side of your pony and pull the hair through. Use small elastic bands to hold the ends. Twist and secure the hair with bobby pins, and your simple chignon is beautifully styled.
