4 Easy Buns | Shawna

Hey guys, so in this video I'm going to show you how to do four very easy different variations of buns. And it has been one of the most requested videos ever because on my Instagram people are commenting on how I do my buns and how I do this and that. So this is pretty much the four buns I usually do on a daily basis if I don't have my hair down like this when it's curly or when it's like crimped or something because I never wear it straight because it's super boring. And if you guys have noticed, I have actually trimmed my hair very short as it used to be like down to my belly button but I wanted a change but not too dramatic so then I decided this length would be good enough. And for these hairstyles it would be easier if you have like curly hair or textured hair because the hair does stay like better and it's more secure but if you have straight hair just work with what you got and just all you need is just to add more bobby pins and like hairspray and stuff but it shouldn't be that big of a difference. So let's get started! Okay so to start off I'm going to show you the classic top knot I guess. This is like the most simplest bun you could ever do and it could work with any hairstyle I'm pretty sure of. So what you have to do is put your hair up into a very high ponytail or wherever you want your top knot to be. I like mine to be like very high up and if you want like a cleaner look you could use a brush or comb to comb up these but I like my buns to be really messy because I do not like them to be like all clean cut because I think that doesn't look good on me. So once your hair is up in a bun, I mean ponytail, you just start twisting it like this and if you twist enough it actually starts to form itself like it bends over. So then you just follow the wrap and then you hold it here and then I usually just use one hair tie, that's all I need for my hair. And then you just tie it. After that you just loosen it up to however you like and then I like to pin mines down because mine never stays in my head so I'm using these spin pin thingies, they're from Goody and then I'm just going to twist them down in my hair and since my hair is shorter I will like have by way. Okay so this is the classic top knot. I actually like to take away like these wispy fireway thingies because I think it looks better for me but you could have it all like slicked back if you want and yeah this is from the back view. Okay so this one is probably going to be the easiest way to do a messy bun so all you have to do is bring your hair up to whatever height you would like it and I like mine to be super high but you could also make it low if you want. So bring it to the top and then you're going to put your hair through it once like this all the way, twist it and bring it over so then now you're going to stop half way and then you're going to take your hair elastic and scoop your hair backwards so you want to twist it and then you're going to pull through and there you go, you have your really messy bun but then you could and then just try to fix it around to your liking if it's too big or too small. Just pin it with bobby pins and that's what I'm going to do right now. And then all you have to do is if you want pull up your hair to the side and just loosen the back and the front because I do not really like that very tight clean look because it does not look good on me. Anyways, so just fix your hair to the way you want it to be like this and this is probably my favorite hairstyle because it's fast, it's easy and it looks good. It's like you took a long time to do your bun but it actually took you like 3 seconds because it's that easy and I don't know why this hair is right here and it's really annoying. Anyways, so yeah, this is the second hairstyle and it's very easy to do and move on to the next one. Okay, so for this one it's also super easy to do and it is the one where your hair like fans out in a bun like that if you know what I mean and it's probably going to take only like a couple seconds after you master it. So then just take your hair up again into a ponytail and then you just want to actually put it into a ponytail right away like this and make sure to go higher than the actual height on where you want your ponytail because it's going to fall down. So then after you have a really crazy high one, you loosen it up like this a bit and then from the back you stick your finger through and then you put two of them in so you can grab the hair from the front later on. So then you basically just, it's like this, and then you take this part of the hair, like the tip, and thread it through that hole that you just made like this and then what you want to do is to bobby pin it and I'm just going to use two and criss-cross them in the back and it should be secure enough and then you want to go from the back like this and pull it down to tighten it and then this really crazy shape forms out so you just want to fix it to whatever liking you would like and then for each side you just want to pin it down and for this side as well and usually one for each side would be good enough for me and then loosen the rest of your hair. So this is the final look for the fan one, it's super easy to do and it's really quick but moving on to the last one. Okay so for this final one it's actually going to be a low bun and it's pretty much the easiest thing you'll ever see but it's going to look really cute even though it looks like complicated but it actually isn't. Okay so you want to section your hair into three parts so put your hair all in the back and then you're going to take a little bit of the front section so maybe like an inch or two of each side and just keep them in the front for now and we're going to work on the back so then you want to take the back like this and just like a top knot you want to twist it like so until it forms a little bun like this and then you're going to take a hair tie and secure it in place like this. Okay so now from the front you want to take your hair and just loosely bring it around like this until it wraps around and then you take bobby pins and pin that hair in place. And for this side you want to do the exact same thing so just lightly twist it like so and just bring it over like this so you want to go on top of it and then bring it around and pin it. And after that you want to take your wispies out and then loosen it so it looks more effortless. So yeah that's about it! This is the last hairstyle and it's a low bun and it's really easy to do even though it looks kind of complicated but yeah! Okay so that's about it for this video!
