An Updo Hairstyle Made Easy With A Headband And Hairspray (VIDEO)

Get Zoe's Chic Updo With Just A Headband

Zoe Saldana has had epic style moments while promoting her upcoming sci-fi flick, "Star Trek Into Darkness." From a tasteful Calvin Klein crop top ensemble to a stunning pink and gold Balmain dress, we give Zoe two thumbs up. But what really has us swooning over the 34-year-old actress are her updo hairstyles.

One of our favorite beauty moments so far was at the Berlin photocall for "Star Trek," where Zoe sported a tuck-and-roll updo that showed off her pretty face and bright red lips.

You're probably thinking a hairstyle like this would take at least 30 minutes and more bobby pins than you can count, but it's really a five-minute hairdo. Birchbox editor Candice shows us in the video above how to recreate a version of Zoe's chic updo with just a headband and hairspray.

Simply place a stretchy headband over your hair and adjust the back so that it doesn't gape out. Then, grab small sections of hair and loop over the headband like you would wrap a pencil. Once you reach the back, tuck in the larger hair sections until you've formed a roll that covers the accessory. Finish with a blast of holding hairspray to tame flyaways.

What do you think about this updo hairstyle?

Seriously, Zoe Saldana looks good with any hairstyle:
