If your hair is naturally straight, then the texturiser and scrunching motion will help create some loose waves, so really anybody can achieve this look.

3. A Chic Bun

Similarly to the ponytail, simply brushing your hair back into a tight and sleek low bun will leave you looking ready for any occasion.
