A French twist is a classic hairstyle that involves twisting the hair and pinning it up at the back of the head. This elegant updo is often worn for formal occasions, such as weddings or parties, but can also be styled for everyday wear. The look is achieved by gathering the hair into a low ponytail, twisting it upwards, and securing it with bobby pins. To create a French twist, start with clean, dry hair. You can add volume with a teasing comb if desired. After twisting the hair, use hairpins to hold it in place, and finish with hairspray for extra hold. This versatile style works well with various hair types and lengths.
