The Pony-Bun Hair Tutorial

This is an extremely easy way to 

pull your hair back and make it

look like it took longer than 5 min to throw back.

And look like you actually have somewhere to go,

other than the park or the grocery store.

(which Im sure most of you do. 

I, on the other hand, do not.)

Ok, so I do this hairstyle when no other hairstyle 

will suffice. It may look like my hair is all fine and 

dandy.  But rest assured, it is not.

This mane you see above is hair that was

washed the night before, never brushed 

and air dried, in a bun.

Lets just go ahead and say, borderline dreads..

I start by pulling back the bangs, 

and doing a small little poof with some  bobby pins.

(This hairstyle, takes lots of bobbys)

Then I pull it into a pony tail, 

and secure it with a thick elastic.

Next, I take sections, aprox 5,

and twist them like so,

one at a time.

Twisting the piece into a loose knot

and securing it in place with about 2 

bobby pins.

Once you have twisted, knotted and

secured all the pony pieces, it will

look like so.

Side view.

I like to split the pony tail and 

pin half the buns above the elastic

and half below.

That way you're not fighting with 

the elastic when you are pinning.

Ta da! 

Now, you look way over done

to go to the park.

But hey, if you arent wearing any makeup

that day, it balances it out...
