chignon
Low twisted bun
A chignon is a knot or coil of hair worn at the back of the head or nape of the neck.
The style pulls hair up and away from the face into a smooth, elegant arrangement: She wore her hair in a low chignon for the wedding.
The term is somewhat formal, often appearing in fashion and beauty contexts.
