How I Recreate It in Under 15 Minutes

Start with day-old hair—it holds shape better.

Create a deep side part, then gather hair at the nape into a loose low pony, twist it into a chignon.

And pin with bobby crosses for extra hold.

Once the bun is set, pull out two face-framing strands and wrap them around a 1-inch curling iron for 5 seconds.

Tuck the ends behind your ears, secure with a tiny pin.

And let the Kayla earring take center stage.
