Bad hair day?

So, I know we all have those days when we can’t quite figure out what to do with our sometimes, unruly locks. No need to worry because with this quick and easy look, you’ll be ready in no time!

For those of you that don’t already know, I give you the Sock Bun

What you need:
scissors
brush
2 hair-ties (I only use 1)
a few bobby pins (depending on the length and texture of your hair)
1 sock (preferably a color close to your hair color)

First you want to cut the tip off your sock.

Then start at one end of the sock and roll down the edges until you reach the other end of your sock so you end up with a doughnut.

Now, for this look, you want to decide how you want to wear your bun. You can wear it up high, for a more high fashion look or you can wear it low, for a more conservative, chiclook. You can also have your hair all slicked back or parted on the side, whatever you feel like that day.

Now put your ponytail where you want it and grab your sock doughnut! Pull your ponytail through the center of the sock doughnut and hold the doughnut at the ends of your ponytail. Tucking the ends around the doughnut, slowly roll the doughnut down, rolling your hair down with it, all the way to your head.

If needed, wrap around another hair-tie around your bun and secure to your head with bobby pins.

Voilà! You have an easy, super quick chic look in no time!
