When it comes to hairstyles, neat nested hair knots never ever go out of style.

A nested hair knot is a series of 2 or more hair buns in decreasing size placed one inside the other.

The hair knots are gently pulled out to create a layered or nested appearance.

Hair master Orlando Pita created the perfect nested hair knot appearance for the Giambattista Valli runway show back in 2007.

When asked about how he created the nested hair knot, Pita explained he teased hair at the crown "to give the profile a nice shape.

The hair guru then rolled the bottom into a low chignon.

He finished by smoothing the top and sides with a boar-bristle brush and pulled out a few face-framing pieces along the hairline.

The beauty of nested hair knots is that they can be worn by any hair type, texture, length or condition.

If hair isn't long enough to wrap into a hair knot, it can be temporarily enhanced with clip-in or fusion hair extensions.
