No se me ocurre ahorita mismo el nombre, porque de hecho, no sabía que era exclusivo de los 60, pero lo primero que pensé al ver lo que tú llamas \"gajos\" fue en la palabra \"TENDRILS\". Siempre he visto que a esas mechitas o rulos que sobresalen les llaman \"tendrils\" en cuestiones de peinado y \"hairstyling\". Seguiré investigando :) |

peer agreement (net): +2French twist Explanation: If the hairdo you are looking for is the one you see in the picture on this link, then the name is "French Twist" the word Chignon technically means: "bun" so maybe you could also translate it as "French Bun" but then that would sound like bread so I would probably stick to "French Twist" hope it helps !
