How To Make An Updo Bun Hairstyle

The trick to styling your hair with the classic updo bun is to have a nice even fullness in the bun area if you look from side to side. But still, it could be an effortless and easygoing look for you to make.

I'm going to show you how to do an updo bun hairstyle. What you're going to need is a little bit of hairspray, a Mason and Pearson brush, a hair tie – I like the ones that are two hooks in the end because you can just wrap it around the ponytail and twist it rather than trying to take your hair through a traditional hair tie – and what we're going to do is just wobble the hair. This hair's got a nice sort of texture and volume to it already, so we're going to work with that and I'm just going to kind of brush the hair but not in a too smooth a lock and we're going to keep the volume in the hair so it's not flat against the scalp.

Keep brushing it into your hand and today, I'm going to do a generally low bun through this area. I'm going to get my hair tie, wrap that around, I'm going to hook one area through there, just twist it around and then you get that hook and you hook it through the other end and that's going to be nice and secure now. What I'm going to do, you can split your ponytail so it makes it easier for you.

I'm going to split mine into two and just really loosely twist around the hair tie. Using grips, we're going to grip pieces in. It's more of a look now to keep your buns more unstructured and not too tight.

I'm going to grab the other end of the ponytail and twist that around. We don't want to see that hair tie in there and you keep just doing that until you feel it has a nice sort of polished free easygoing look, really and we're going to do another grip for this area and that should hold it. Then, now what we're going to do is just keep all that unstructured like that, a tiny bit of spray, make sure the side's fine, and from the side, you have a nice fullness in the bun area and it just flows together really well and that looks classic and effortless.

That's my updo bun hairstyle. .
