3 Hair Bun Tutorials

To say that I love a top-knot and ballerina bun would be an understatement. While I've been throwing my mess of hair atop my head for as long as I can remember, now that it's considered cool and trendy makes me happier than ever to toss it up in the mornings and not think twice. Since I'm always seeing the cutest hair buns (does that read as awkward as it is to type?!) on blogs, Pinterest, and Tumblr, I thought I'd round up a few tutorials that I want to try. Here are some with super cute results:

- Abby perfects the french braided top knot similar to the photo below in this tutorial. (Another really good french braided top knot tutorial here)
- The more polished and refined look of the ballerina "sock bun" (similar to photo below) is made easy by Emily in this how-to video. 
- CaraLoren shows us how to master the top-knot in this video.

BUH. Thank you!
I usually do a tight twist of the hair into a bun on the top of my head, tie & voila!

I've recently begun to do topknots more and more now, since there are so many tutorials out there and it's become more trendy. Especially since I work at Starbucks and we have to have our hair up at work.

And thank for posting the links to tutorials for that french braided one! I saw that on Pinterest, but couldn't find the tutorial for the life of me! Needless to say, that epically failed.

i love the top knot! My hair is so heavy that unless I put my sock bun directly on top of my head, it falls out even if I put tons of bobbies!
love,
