What I used to achieve this look.....

There’s just something about a slick-back bun that never misses. It instantly elevates any outfit, takes under 10 minutes, and works just as well on clean hair as it does on second-day hair. It gives effortless, cool-girl vibes while somehow looking way more high-maintenance than it actually is. Whether I’m running errands, heading to brunch, hopping on a call, or getting dressed for a night out, this hairstyle is always my go-to.

Basically, it’s the hairstyle equivalent of a great pair of sunglasses — it does all the heavy lifting so you don’t have to.

The chic, effortless hairstyle I always come back to.

These are the exact products I keep in rotation to get that smooth, glossy finish and long-lasting hold:
