From Our Pages Fall 2008

Inspired by the fall runways, this edgy update on the French twist with volume at the crown has "a 1960s flair," says Irion. "A simple chic veil pinned sideways into the crease would look gorgeous."
How To Get the Look: He set the hair with a 1-inch curling iron. It was then separated at the crown and temples and clipped aside. Irions pulled the hair back as if creating a low ponytail, and starting at the nape of the neck, twisted the hair tightly into a vertical roll, pinning it to secure. After unclipping the top layer, he back-combed the hair at the crown for volume, smoothing the sides and back with a boar-bristle brush. He shaped the remaining hair into waves and pinned long strands at the crease of the roll, leaving the ends to fall free.
