As recently road-tested by handbag.com's lovely Editor Natasha, this look is fun, funky and perfect for those who want to add a little '80s style twist to their up-do without going the whole hog. And the beauty of it is you don't even need to bag yourself a set of crimpers. Hair guru Charles Worthington shared with handbag the secret of creating this look simply with a metal-tail comb and hair straighteners.
Intrigued? Read on for Charles' step-by-step style secrets...
Step 1 - Pull hair back into a sleek pony or classic chignon, leaving the fringe or front section of the hair down. Nothing fancy, the front part of your hair should do all the talking!
Step 2 - Next, take a small 1cm wide section of hair and, using a fine toothed pin tail hair comb, comb then spray the section of hair with Salon Shine Results Maximum Hold Hairspray (from £1.65).
Step 3 - Twist the hair using your fingertips, then wind tightly around the pin section of the comb, creating a spiral.
Step 4 - Set the hair by clamping a pre-heated flat straightening iron over the hair that is twisted over the comb, holding in place for no more than five seconds. Then release and remove the comb from inside the twisted strand of hair. You should end up with a fabulous, tightly crimped coil of hair.
Step 5 - Repeat section by section over entire fringe, and allow to cool.
Step 6 - Finally, untwist the hair and separate the curl - your hair will literally spring into life.
Step 7 - Simply style as you wish. Spray up with Salon Shine Results Maximum Hold Hairspray for a show-stopping finish or slick to one side for a more sleek, demure look. Either way, get out there and have a (disco)ball!
