I've been really into buns these days. They are sophisticated and easy as ABC. They can be done on messy or straightened hair and both ways give you a refined appearance. See the video below of how I stumbled onto my textured bun technique.
You can see some of the heat damage in my hair in the picture below even though my hair was blow-dried about 3 days before this picture was taken.

My Textured Bun on Medium-length Natural Hair |
Here are a few easy steps to creating this bun.
Step 1
Start with stretched hair or a twist-out or braid-out.
Step 2
Separate hair with fingers to detangle large bumps and knots.
Step 3
Pull hair into a ponytail using your hand only to smooth
Step 4
Loosely roll hair under creating a bun-like shape. Add pins where needed to secure the bun and you're done.
Remember - Avoid using a comb or brush as much as possible. The size of your bun will vary depending on the length of your hair.
I still haven't mastered the natural bun!! I rarely wear my hair out, but when I do, I would love to try bunning. But, it always looks a hot mess! :(
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tips. Will try again soon!
