Make a bun yourself:the step-by-step tutorial

Tutorial:Make a fuzzy bun yourself

How to make a fuzzy bun, with a pretty bohemian look, that will last all day?

– Draw a parting in the middle with a fine comb. Sweep your hair forward

– Divide your hair into sections. Always start by working on the strands at the back of the head. Secure the ones closer to the face with a clip at the top of your hair so they don't get in the way.

– Wrap your wick in the straightener halfway up to create a wave. To achieve the styled-disheveled effect that suits the messy bun, alternate the direction of the wave of your curls from one lock to another.

– Make a ponytail that is not too tight, without smoothing out any bumps. This unprepared aspect makes all the charm of the loose bun.

– Tuck your lengths into the elastic by making two turns and without tightening. Flatten the small hair that protrudes with pins.

Tutorial:make a braided bun yourself

The braided bun is the favorite hairstyle of the stars on the red carpet. No need to go through the hairdresser box to make a very pretty braided bun in a few minutes.

– Start by doing a few African braids (don’t do twelve) in the front of your head. African braids are those with three locks that we made small for our dolls, sisters, classmates... Nothing too complicated. Do not braid too tightly and make different sizes of braids. The thicker the braids, the better the bun will be.

– Tie your hair in a loose ponytail and pull your hair back into the elastic by twisting it. Pin the braids into the bun with Kirby pins.

– For a romantic effect, leave a few loose hairs on the beats.

– Tie your hair in a low ponytail, at the base of the neck, with an elastic. For a perfectly elegant low chignon, hide the elastic by covering it with a thin section of hair.
