Bun Basic How-To

                   This pull-through bun is pretty self-explanantory.  


           To make a basic bun:

                            1. Start with a ponytail. 

                                         2. Begin to tightly twist the pony.

                                                 3. If it doesn't start coiling up by itself, move it around a little until it does.

                                             4. Continue coiling in the direction it already started going. Coil until you run out of hair. Then secure in whatever wat you wish.  Here is another way to do it: http://hairdohow2.blogspot.com/2011/02/lesson-35-basic-bun.html#comments.

                                        1. Start with a pony.

                         2. Divide into two sections (top and bottom.) Make one section slightly smaller than the other. In this picture it looks like the top one is a lot smaller than the bottom one, but that was just because of the angle of the camera. The difference really isn't that huge.

                                             3. Divide the smaller section into two pieces. 

                                         4. Fold the ends of one section over to make a loop. 

                                        5 & 6. Roll loop all the way down, then pin to the head. Repeat steps 4-6 to other section of hair. 

                                        7. Divide bottom half into three pieces. 

                                                   8. Repeat steps 4-6 to remaning pieces.

                                                            9. Adjust all the sections to meld them into one bun. 


                 I will not be posting tutorials for the basic ponytails because they are pretty self-explanatory. However, if you don't know how to do one of them please request a how-to. This also goes for any style I have not explained. If you do not understand a photo tutorial feel free to ask for a video one. If you see a hairdo that you really love but can't figure it out (ex. maybe in a movie, book, or just someone on the streets) do not be afraid to request a tutorial.
