Ted Gibson‘s hair concept for Christina Ricci‘s Met Ball 2012 moment was bun couture! Here are the deets, straight from Ted.

“Christina needed the perfect style to showcase her amazing Thakoon gown, and I knew this chic, sleek chignon would be absolutely gorgeous on her. First, I started off with wet hair and sprayed build it blow drying agent on mids and ends. I then applied fix it gel all over and blew hair dry with a medium sized round brush in one inch sections.

Next, I flat ironed her entire head. I parted her hair in a deep side part and pulled everything back into a tight ponytail.

I then created a large chignon in the back, pinning her hair with medium bobby pins. I finished with beautiful hold hair spray.”

I love Christina Ricci’s hairstyle here. What say you?
