The low chignon is a perennial favorite with brides as it is incredibly versatile and can be tailored to fit every wedding look. The word “chignon” comes from the French phrase “chignon du cou” meaning “nape of the neck”; in other words, it’s a fancy low bun. There are hundreds of variations you can come up with.  Low chignons can be sophisticated and sleek or ethereal and loose, and they create a good balance between wearing your hair up and down. The beauty of this elegant hairstyle is that it looks impressive (and natural at the same time), and are easily achieved. Join us as we share some pretty inspiration below!
