If you’re looking for ways to update your go-to bun, One Tree Hill’s Shantel VanSanten recently wore a cute version that’s totally easy to pull off, reports Glamour Magazine’s beauty blog. While high buns are chic and pretty effortless, they can look too severe if you don’t incorporate this important element.

According to the news source, that would be the extra height in front of the bun, which works to soften the impact of the elevated bun at the back of your head. Luckily, it’s simple to recreate as long as you have the right products. Use a thickening shampoo and conditioner in the shower. Then use a volumizing mousse like Leonor Greyl – Mousse Au Lotus Volumatrice.

Blowdry your hair upside down to create plenty of volume, then backcomb the hair at the crown of your head and up toward your forehead. Pull all of your hair back into a sleek bun, leaving a bit of slack near the front, where you should create a soft bump (not anything like Snooki’s signature ‘do). Finish it off with a bit of hairspray and you’ll have the perfect everyday style!
