Tutorial: Donut/Sock Bun

Lately, I've seen a lot of these donut/sock bun hair styles around and so I figured I'd do a tutorial for those of you in the dark! It's typically easier for someone with thinner hair and less short layers..

Things you will need:

1. Hair brush

2. Rolled up sock or a bun stuffer/maker

3. Hair tie

4. Bobby pins (as many as you'd need) 

 

1. Brush our your hair

2. Tie it in a pony tail, the higher it is the higher your bun will be!

3. Place the sock roll or the bun stuffer into your pony tail

4. Spread the hair evenly around the mold, securely grab it from underneath

5. Starting from one side of the bun (I like to start from bottom right) and wrap the hair around base of the bun, tucking it underneath

6. Wrap it tightly around the base of the bun until all of your hair is wrapped

7. Secure it with a bobby pin, you can also use the bobby pin to tuck in the little strands that stick out if you have lots of layers!

8. Finished!

So here is the finished product, practice makes perfect, but this is how I do my donut bun and I love the volume it gives my otherwise puny bun :)
