Q&A for How to Make a Bun

Twist firmly, use bobby pins to secure, and finish with hairspray. Then, use a paper towel coated with hairspray to smooth flyaways.

It is a smooth, tight bun placed high on the head, at the top of the crown.

Wrap the hair loosely and secure with bobby pins, then use fingers to soften the shape and pull small bits loose.

If you pin the bobby pins into the elastic underneath, it will anchor them in place.

No, but they will help your bun stay up longer. They will also help keep any stray hairs in place and keep them from poking out.

Yes, but the bun may not stay in as well without putting it into a ponytail first.

It depends on whether or not they have some experience doing this sort of thing. If they don't, then it can be rather difficult. However, as with all things, practice makes perfect and you have to start somewhere. So, if you believe you are capable of learning how to do it, then give it a try and keep trying until you are comfortable with it.

If you have straight hair naturally, there is no way to make it permanently wavy/curly unless you get a perm at a salon. Making a bun every day will only give you temporary waves, and it could put a major strain on your hair.

Try a bun with a sock. It may stay in place for more than a day.

Take all the bobby pins out of your hair, unroll the bun and take the sock out. Brush through.

Braid your hair to make it easier to manage. You can also twist it and wrap it around to make a bun.

Really, you can't. The only thing I can think of is tying a knot in your hair, but that's not a bun. For the methods above, you need something. Buns cannot defy gravity.

It depends on how much experience you have doing your hair, vs. how much experience the other person has. Most people make buns themselves, and it should be fairly easy after some practice.

For an outfit, wear something casual, for example a crop top, t shirt and jeans (high waisted, boyfriend) etc. Keep it casually simple.

You can try using the sock bun method. You can also buy a "false bun" that matches your hair color and put it over your ponytail.

Probably, but put in a little extra hairspray to keep the extra wisps of hair from falling out.

Brush your hair thoroughly, then dampen it slightly. Follow the steps in the article to make your bun. Wait until your hair dries, then smooth down any stray hairs with hairspray, if necessary.

Done. how to use a bobby pin .

If your hair won't stay in a bun with the sock method, try using some bobby pins, hairspray, or both.

You can use gel. Also, you can use water in the process, and as the day wears on, it will create the perfect messy bun.

Yes, as long as you have enough hair to make a bun, you can do it. There is no difference between male and female hair.

I think that it all depends on how long or short, thick or thin your hair is. If you have long hair, chances are that you can get away without bobby pins. If you have short hair, it would be wise to use bobby pins since your hair might not be long enough to fit entirely into just an elastic. Thick hair would probably require bobby pins and thin hair might not require as many. Messy buns can definitely be done with no bobby pins at all.

Yes, just don't brush out your hair before creating your bun.

Excessive pulling/tugging will damage the hair, so if you are doing up your hair everyday and trying it very tightly or being very tough on your hair while tying it up (not just in a bun, any hairstyle), the pulling can damage both the hair itself and the roots of your hairs. However, if you are tying your hair gently, it shouldn't cause damage.

Yes. You need to use bobby pins and hairspray to keep it in place. If you are going for a messy bun, I recommend you use less or no bobby pins and hairspray.

Yes. Think of it as a clock, put one on the top of your head at 12 o'clock, then put one on the right side as 3, one on the bottom at 6 o'clock, and then one on the left said at 9. If you do this, they should stay in the whole day.

Make sure the bumpy side is on your head, and cross over two bobby pins to make them stay in longer.

Start with a ponytail and then make a braid. Then twist the braid around the base of the ponytail and use aligator clips, bobby pins, and rubber bands to keep it in place.

Hold the elastic in place with your other hand while twisting your hair.

For me it's difficult. You can get better with practice, but if it's your first time trying this and you're going to an event, I would get someone to help you.
