Gwen Stefani stays true to her punk roots with a funky updo complete with framing pieces and twists.
Step 1: Apply a nickel-size amount of styling lotion onto damp hair. Using the flat edge of a paddle brush, blow dry two-inch sections at a time pulling hair straight with each stroke.
Step 2: Using your fingers, sweep your length back high on top of your head and twist until the hair buckles upon itself to form a loose bun. Pin the bun loosely in place with hair looping freely around.
Step 3: Create a side part and loosely braid the larger half, then pin it just behind the ears.
Step 4: Create a small braid on the other side of the part and twist in a circle pinning the end underneath. Pull down a few short pieces to frame your face and spray the updo with hairspray for all-day hold.
