Classic French Twist

A classic French twist rolls the hair upward into a neat vertical fold at the back of the head. The tapered seam creates a timeless evening silhouette that keeps medium lengths controlled and lifted.

How to achieve it

Brush the hair back, gather it low, and twist the length upward against the head. Fold the ends inside the roll, pin the seam vertically, and smooth the surface without flattening the crown.
