When thinking about an elegant updo hairstyle for longer hair, many women visualize that romantic, messy bun at the crown of the head that's so often seen in movies, on the red carpet, and in magazines. This is an incredibly sophisticated hairstyle if done properly. First things first; when creating a messy bun - or any updo for that matter. It is important to use high quality hair elastics that do not have any metal parts. You don't want to cause damage to your locks just to create your look.

The first styling step is to pull your hair all up at the crown of your head like you would if you were creating a ponytail. But instead of creating a traditional ponytail, you are going to pull your hair only half of the way through the hair elastic and then wrap the elastic around the section of hair you just created. You're basically creating a bun that has some hair hanging out. Next, pull thin strands out of the bun and either leave them as they are or curl them into ringlets. Either way, you should separate the pieces and provide texture by using a pomade, and finish off the look with hairspray.
