So you wanna make a messy bun like this:
1. Start with hair that is curly, or slightly old (1-2 days). Tease the crown area.
2. Pull hair into a messy pony tail, pulling a few strands out to frame your face.
3. Twist tightly into a bun.
4. Pin into place using a combination of hair pins and bobby pins.
(These are hair pins)
5. Pull on your bun until it is as loose and messy as you desire.
VOILA!
Tips:
-Don't worry about it being "secure". If it feels a little loose, good. What the heck are you going to be doing that requires your hair be glued into place? The key word here is MESSY. I wore my hair like this on an extremely windy day and had no problems.
- Use hairspray. It'll keep those fly aways going hay wire.
- If you feel a bit like Martha Washington, good. You've got it. (At least that's how I feel when I wear my hair like this, and I always get compliments, so apparently Martha= good!)








Wish my hair was longer...yours is precious!!

"Pull on your bun until it is as loose and messy as you desire" - dang that is the step that I have been forgetting! I keep trying to do this and never knew what I was doing wrong. I feel silly :)
ReplyDeleteI need to buy some hairspray so I can do that with my hair. I don't trust women whose hair doesn't move. It's not natural.
