Beautiful side-swept chignon hairstyle, plus a DIY hair accessory that elevates the look.

Chignon hair, don’t care! This tutorial shows a messy, side-swept chignon and includes a quick DIY for a bold copper hair accessory I’ve been loving. It’s an easy two-in-one: a simple updo that works in minutes and a statement clip you can make for less than $5.
I’ve been noticing large metal circles in jewelry lately and love how minimal they look. That inspired a hair clip version that complements almost any updo—dressy enough for a wedding, but just as striking with casual outfits.
