Tying a Man Bun
Here's a step-by-step guide based on common methods:
-
Add Texture (Optional): To prevent your hair from lying flat, consider using a blow dryer while brushing your hair downwards. This will give it some body and texture.
-
Gather Your Hair: Use your hands to gather all your hair as if you were creating a ponytail. The position can be at the crown of your head, or slightly lower depending on your preference.
-
Create a Ponytail: Hold the gathered hair in one hand, as if you're about to create a ponytail.
-
Wrap the Hair Tie: Wrap a hair tie around the base of the ponytail. On the final wrap, don't pull the entire ponytail through.
-
Form the Bun: Leave a loop of hair extending out, creating the bun shape. The end of the ponytail will be sticking out.
-
Secure the Bun: Adjust the bun to your liking. You can leave the ends sticking out for a more relaxed look, or tuck them under the hair tie for a neater appearance.
-
Tidy Up (Optional): Pull out a few strands around your face for a more casual and textured style.
