How To: The Messy Bun

When you want to pull your hair back and want to do something besides the same old ponytail, do this easy, cute messy bun that takes just a few minutes.

Step 1: Brush your hair back into a low ponytail. (Tease the crown for some extra volume)
Step 2: Separate the hair in two.

Step 3: Twist the two sections together.

Step 4- hold onto the end your your twisted hair and simply wrap the hair around the ponytail holder. Like I did in the picture below- (I'm holding the center, right at the ponytail, to keep it secure and stable)

Step 5- Bobby pin the ends in, then pin the other parts of the bun where needed. After you pin it securely, spray it with some hairspray.

So your finished product is this fun bun! This can be dressy and classic or casual. If you want to wear it messier, just pull out some of the loose ends, or fan out the bun part to give it a care free look. You can do this high or low or even to the side!
