Is it a Chignon, I know my mum used to have this done in the 60's and I think it might be similar to a pleat.

Vertical twist? A vertical roll or chignon sounds best but thought I'd throw another name into the pot

i would say vertical roll, only because in level one thats what it was down as when i had to get it signed off and i thought a chignon...was like a low side or centre pony tail...then set and put into a kind of bun with curls iykwim ???????
thanks for joining the geek site, myhairdressers you guys do rock :hug:
