HOW TO: MESSY BUN

25 Nov 2018


What can one say about messy buns?
They go by many names.
Messy Bun. Top Knot. Sexy Bun.
...k no one really calls them sexy, although they are. obviously.

Anyways, the point is messy buns are a must.
In every aspect of life.
Whether you are a mama, and you are tired of your sweet, beautiful, devil child pulling on your damn hair. Or a girl tryin to get crap done. Or a dude that is randomly here that wants to perfect his man bun game. Messy buns are. the. shizznit.

Here is my fool proof way to up your messy bun game.




FIRST:
Hair thingy.



SECOND:
It doesn't really matter where your hair is parted, you literally just grab it all and gather it on the top of your head. But I do love to leave a tiny part visible - that is my personal preference, but you do you girl.

Make sure that your hair thingy is on the hand that is holding your hair.
Since my right hand is my dominate hand, I keep the hair thingy on my right wrist so it's easier.



BUT you want it messy when you gather it all. Don't try and make it into a pony tail first - THAT IS A ROOKIE MISTAKE. 
If some pieces are bunched, or looped, or ratted - KEEP IT THAT WAY.



THIRD:
With your one hand entangled in your hair, you are going to bring the hair thingy over the hair, so it starts to form a bun on top.


FOURTH:
Now, because your hair is entangled all together, as you start twisting the hair thingy your hair will naturally follow with the motion.



FIFTH:
And slowly pull the hair thingy over to the other side to lock it into place.




SIXTH:
Let it go! Let it go!
tell me you didn't just sing that.


Now you could leave it like that but here is what I do next.
If there are random pieces that are sticking out, or look funky, just tuck them into the hair thingy.


I wrap them around to the back and tuck them into the hair thingy.



Now with postpartum hair loss hittin me I have these stupid places that are well.. baldISH.
NOT CUTE. 



So I pull some bangs down to frame my face + lightly tug some of the hair down to cover it, which makes it look messier + cuter anyways.


Like so.



And there you go guys!
