Although people associate buns with long, flowing ponytails, you can accomplish this hairstyle even on someone with short hair. You can create a beautiful twisted bun with a rope braid and some hair pins as long as the subject has enough hair to make a short ponytail. Wear this attractive, braided bun to keep hair up for a ballet performance or as a proper look for a formal occasion.

Instructions

    1

    Dampen the hair slightly by misting it with the spray bottle. This will allow the hair to stay together better and will prevent stray hairs.

    2

    Make a ponytail with the hair and secure it with the hair bands. The base of the ponytail will serve as an anchor point for the top of the bun.

    3

    Separate the hair into two equal portions, splitting the ponytail down its left-right center line.

    4

    Twist the two portions of hair around each other to create a rope braid.

    5

    Secure the end of the braid with another hair band.

    6

    Fold the end of the braid under the braid itself and up against the base of the ponytail to create a braided bun.

    7

    Hold the bun in place using hair pins. Use hair pins the same color as the hair to make the pins less noticeable.

    8

    Spray the bun with hair spray to prevent hairs from coming free and making the bun look messy.
