French twist (hairstyle)

A French twist is a common "updo" hair styling technique.

[1] It is created by gathering the hair in one hand and twisting the hair upwards until it turns in on itself against the head.

It is then secured with barrettes, combs, hair sticks and/or hairpins.

French twists are usually worn to proms and weddings.

Hair clips are also commonly used with French twists.
