Quick Bun

So, the last 2 weeks I have gotten a little lazy on Thursday nights.  My regular wash day is Saturday and I've been so busy by Thursday, I don't feel like twisting or braiding my hair up.  It doesn't  take too long but I just haven't wanted to do it!!  So I have decided to trying bunning again.


Yes, I've tried before with dismal results.  My hair was either too poofy or I couldn't get my hair tight enough and it just looked crazy!  lol.  Anyway, I have watched many wonder women on YouTube demonstrating how to get these slick, wonderful looking buns.  But it was too much for a 'quick' hairstyle.  I could just braid it up for the time some took.


So I had an old braid out and just wanted my hair up and to look decent.  And of course, quick!

So, I took some Eco-styling gel, a hair tie, EVOO my brush (which I rarely ever use), my water bottle and my satin scarf.

I started by putting a little EVOO in my hand and placing the hair tight applying a little on the entire tie.  This was to keep the tie from pulling my hair.  I then sprayed my hair until it was a little damp all over.  I then took some of the gel and began to put a light coat all around the edges, working around my head.  As I applied the gel, I would gather that section up towards the top using one hand and applying gel with the other.

Once all my hair was gathered I pulled it tight and placed the hair tie around the hair.  I used my brush to smooth the hair.  Some areas were a little dry, so I sprayed a little more water and added some gel.  Once, everything was in place.  I simply tied my hair down with my scarf and I was done!!!! Yeah!  Less than 5 minutes.

In the morning I added a little EVOO and tucked some of the hair at the top.  It was a messy bun and I didn't mind!

Happy bunning!!!
