Selena Gomez is back in New York City, and of course, she’s serving up a ton of beauty inspiration as she makes her rounds. On September 9, the actress was spotted at Hudson Yards after taping a segment for The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where she promoted the fifth season of her hit series, Only Murders in the Building. Right after that, she did a quick outfit change but kept her glam intact, showcasing the versatility of one of my favorite hairstyles of all time: the chignon.
The look, created by celebrity hairstylist Renato Campora, perfectly enhanced Gomez’s features, which is a hallmark of good updo hairstyles. Hers, in particular, was styled after Campora washed her hair, then dried it in an upward motion to add volume and texture for the hair ties to grip. After creating a sleek high ponytail, Campora curled her hair ends, added a net, and an oval-shaped chignon—one of the most timeless bridal hairstyles—coincidentally, while Gomez is planning her wedding to fiancé Benny Blanco. I don’t know about you, but this feels like a huge sneak peek.
