With wedding season just around the corner, save yourself some money by doing your own hair at home.
A side bun is a really popular hairstyle when attending a formal event and it's easy to achieve the look, without having to go to the hairdressers. All you need is a little practice, hair doughnut and a pretty hair accessory or fascinator.
- Make sure your hair is completely knot free, so give your tresses a good brush.
- If you have flat hair, spritz some dry shampoo to the roots to give it added volume.
- Pull your hair over the left or right side that you want your bun to sit on.
- Tie the hair into a ponytail.
- You will need to use a hair doughnut. It’s a circular hair piece that has a hole in it, quite like a doughnut, hence the name.
- Feed the entire ponytail through the doughnut and roll the hair around the piece until it is in a bun shape.
- Secure the bun with a thin band, bobby pins and hair spray.
- Attach your hair accessory or fascinator.
Make sure you try the style out, a few days before the wedding, the last thing you want is to be rushing out the door, kids in tow frustrated that you couldn’t get your hair to stay put.
