Want to get that “off-duty supermodel” look? Then the slicked-back bun may be the perfect hairstyle for you.
Made famous by the likes of Kendall Jenner, Hailey Bieber and Bella Hadid, this super-chic bun has been one of this summer’s hottest hair trends.
Here’s how to achieve the look in four simple steps:
Step 1: Prep the Hair With Product
The key to this look is smooth, shiny hair.
After washing and conditioning your hair, apply a shine-boosting serum for the ultimate sleek look.
Step 2: Brush Hair Back With a Centre Part
After straightening your hair, part it in a straight line directly in the centre of your head.
Then, brush it back into a ponytail with a soft bristle brush.
We love the Beauty Works Vegan Bristle Brush, which you can buy for €11.39 here.
Step 3: The Bun
Once your hair is brushed back into a ponytail, secure it with a hair tie.
Then, twist and wrap the ponytail around the base to create a bun.
Secure the bun into place with another bobbin, and use bobby pins to secure any stray hairs.
Step 4: Make It LastÂ
Finally, it’s time to add a product that will make the hairstyle last all day.
You can apply a generous coating of hairspray to your hair to lock it in place.
Or you can use The Smooth Stick to ensure you have no stray baby hairs and that your hair stays hydrated for the day.
