Show and Ask: How To Make A Simple Hair Bun
Sanya Shows and Asks:
Hello Helpful Ladies,
I have been struggling with matters of femininity since I have been very little, as anything “girly” was poked fun at by my brother and friends. You see, I was a tomboy who went on in life to become an automobile engineer. So, without a mum or sister or girlfriends to introduce me to the world of makeup, I’ve been a bit of a “late lateef.” But this is a question unrelated to makeup, but very much related to my lack of self-prettying up skills. I request you to help me before I lose my mind. Thank you. π
On the left is a picture of what my hair currently looks like. On the right is how I would like to have it. In a simple bun that doesn’t keep unraveling. Something simple and small, not overtly poofy. In fact, I like minimal volume with buns. Big buns look weird on me.
Thank you all for your help!

hi…makin high buns is the easiest,, ask me i made them for 9 years when i flew with an airline !u make a pony ..as high or as low as u wanna go…now divide the pony into two and turn one section clockwise and one anticlockwise to get the lovely doughnut or figure eight kind of thing.. secure with u pins and u a ready to rock n roll.. it helps if use hairspray … the hair sets really well
Wow! thats an awesome Tip shweta. π Made a bun in 2 mins flat using ur tip right now. :yahoo: Cant thank u enuf :teddy:
oh i have a lot of these lil gems with me!!when u have to wake up at 3 am n dash out by 330 u tend to be resourceful
Omg ur hair looks like so straight n silky..u got beautiful hair π
@Shweta…wow i’m gonna try making a bun ..sounds like so easy now..Why don;t u write articles?it will be so helpful for others π
i made enuff buns in those years… no i rarely ever make them..at work its usually a pnytail or loose hair…
wowwwww thnx fr d tip i will try shaam mein
wow ! this worked !!! Awesome and many many thnx shweta :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
Thank you Shweta! π
this trick works better with high ponytails thoug
Hi,
I saw this pic on the left and thought.. is this a model with such silky, straight hair..!!! π Many compliments.. π
Thank you Surabhi. π :blush:
we used to do something called a thai bun too…that is u make a tight lowish panytail.. then make a depression above ur scrunchie and take all of ur hair hanging in the pony n insert it into the depression.. works best with hair which is upto the shoulder blades n looks chic!
You really must share your extensive knowledge. Thank you Shweta! π
Such good tips Shweta. You must write articles on hair do’s! Thanks so much for sharing!
thank u.. im nt much a of writer actually… for daily use i leave my hair loose..hair gt ruined when it was in bun for all the years i flew…im glad to share whatever i know though!
woww u look so gorgeous and shwetaaaaa loved the thai bun bt i have long hair π
me too.. my hair is below waist.. it looked like an inverted beehive on me hehe.. but if ur hair is nt very thick it may work..
for a tomboy-turned-automobile engineer…you havent turned out :toothygrin: badly in the looks department (ask me….i know loadsss of my fellow engineers who look like they never look into a mirror π )
Oopsii…Me too an Engr..but at times look into the mirror.. :preen:
I love to dress up & xperiment with looks..when ppl come to knw that me an engr too..it come out as big surprise for ’em..& have heard the reaction many times frm candid frnds..” Oh engr…par lagti to nahi :chewnails: ” Guess they xpect engrs to be like.. :dumb:
Aw, thank you! π
with such gorgeous hair, why do you want to tie it up in a bun :nababana: :nababana: :nababana: :nababana: ….hehe….
i once stumbled upon a youtube video, wherein a girl was demonstrating one such bun….she first made a pony, then she stuck up a readymade artificial hair donut into it,,,and just pinned the hair around it….no twisting the hair, and it was ready in 2 mins flat….try searching for airhostess hairstyles on youtube….ya, but i dunno where we can get that donut from….
tht donut is avlb insingapore and all southasian countries.. but taht looks very fake trust me on dat..in singapore and in london u get this net like thing which wraps itself around the ponytail n then u just need to twist n secure!but in my exp the dividing ponytail works best. i have more or less done a phd in them being an ex airhostess
Shweta, thanx a tin for the ponytail wala tip. and gurl u shud do tutes on making buns.
Sanya, u look gud and have such beautiful tresses, why do u want to tie them in a bun….
dat ws a typo… thanx a ton…
I love lose buns. dont know how to make it with my 3 steps hair cut though!
very simple… hair spray clips and tight ponytails.. u get something called invisible pins if u r in bbay.. they r very minute pins which hold ur layers in place ask any airline or hotel personeel n they have a wealth of info
Sanya…Looking at your silky straight hair..You gotta be more careful in holding the bun the high..as such kinda hair is rebellious & dun like to follow any hairdo.. :haanji:
I used to have very silky Crowning Glory..& once I tried loose bun with churidaar & fixed one ethnic leather clip over it..& right in the party hair became itchy to come out & I had to go to the washroom to re-fix the bun.. :pigtail:
And you look Drop Dead Gorgeous…Out & Out Model Material.. :jaiho:
