These rippled alloy sticks from local salon Alibi NYC allow you to create chic, deceptively loose chignons without having to use a million bobby pins (or a pencil!). Simply gather your hair into a low pony, twist your tail and coil it at the nape of your neck, then insert the wand upward and back down through your knot. Grab the elastic, wrap it around your bun, and slip the metal ball into its socket for a secure hold. Use one of the matte colors to blend into your hair or grab a metallic style for a glitzy accent. Alibi NYC hair wands, $22 each, at Alibi 25 Salon, 11 W 25th St between Broadway and Sixth Aves, suite 2 (212-924-7300)
