Mika Rummo of Salon AKS in NYC offers a quick demonstration on how to use just a handful of pins and a Cricket Amped Up Brush to keep an updo in place. "This is perfect for the client resisting hairspray," she says. "This locking technique will keep the strands in place all night."

Did you watch the Miss Universe pageant? You may have noticed the regal updo worn by Miss Angola Leila Lopes, a business student, who eventually took home the crown during the 60th Annual Miss Universe® Pageant broadcast live from São Paulo, Brazil. The elegant updo was created by Tammy Mixon, Farouk Systems Global Artistic Board and lead pageant stylist, who shares her steps inside. Not only is the style easier than it looks, but adds Leila, “The crown fits perfectly around this hairstyle!”
"The Jason Wu hair look for this season is all about charm—this is a look of romance and innocence. I took inspiration from Holly Hunter in the film The Piano," Odile Gilbert says.

I’m in my 10th week at Pivot Point, and we’re just wrapping up our lessons on long hair design. I love being creative, but I have a hard time getting started. Because I don’t have much experience, I need to have an idea of what I want to do before I begin—but I’m not at the point where I feel confident enough to create a wearable look that doesn’t look too prom-y or avant-garde. It’s like I’m having a tough time finding a happy medium. Now that I got out the “Debbie Downer” in me, OH MY GOD! I love updos!
Barbara Lhotan of ElieElie Salon in Winchester, Virginia, created this modern updo at a recent MODERN SALON Artist Session (modernsalon.com/artistsession). Here, she details the steps to get the look.
