100 Degree Hottie: Puff and Twist Bun

100 Degree Hottie: Puff and Twist Bun

I can't even tell you how easy this hairstyle is.

Difficulty: EASY AS HELL

Ideal for: Anyone with long hair or anyone who's exceptionally lazy

Perfect for: the beach, the gym, shopping, laying around, whatever!

Step one:

Take your bangs, or if you have no bangs- take the chunk in the front where a mohawk would start.

Twist said bangs away from your forehead but then push them towards the forehead by half an inch and stick a couple bobby pins in there. It creates a little puff that's flattering and doesn't look like you glued hair to your head.

Step two:

Do the exact same thing on the sides. Ideally twist the sections going up towards the top of your head. 

a) It's more flattering

b) It'll stay well and keep flyaways at bay.

Step three:

Ponytail. Ponytail everything.

Step four:

If you have long hair- Tease the pony (if your hair is fine/limp/etc) and split into 2. Twist both sections going towards the right (clockwise), then wrap them AROUND each other going to the left (counter clockwise).

Ta da, you did a rope braid. 

Now wind the rope braid up into a bun and pin into place.

Ta da, you did a messy bun with little to no effort and you probably had to adjust or fix NOTHING.

If you have shorter hair- Follow my tutorial on the messy bun in the previous posts (the one where you use bobby pins to flip the hair.)

Step five: 

Use hairspray or whatever you prefer to keep the flyaways down. I actually like it when it's loose, but you play it how you want to.

How easy was that?
