A relaxed and comfortable hairstyle the bun has gone through several modern make-overs, resulting in a look
that is sheer classicism with a twist. On the runways this Fall models adorned buns in many variations that I
am sure you will find a new style to experiment with and make your own.
Recreate this Fall’s hottest hair trend, the bun. I
selected a look from Iceberg's Fall runway show which
is simple and easy to do at home for yourself.
WHAT YOU NEED:
• Comb
• Coated elastic band
• Bobby pins
• Styling gel
• Hairspray
Start by prepping your hair with something
nourishing and replenishing. I suggest
mixing a pea sized amount of Kerastase
Lumier, which will create hold and shine.

Using a small toothed comb, part the hair
according to the way you wear it. A side part
is always classic. Then firmly place the
comb at your scalp, pulling hair back
towards the nape of your neck.
Use a tight hair band, such as blax elastic bands, hold hair tightly at the nape and securely
wrap the blax elastic band into a low ponytail. Depending on your hair length and density,
this will determine the size of bun you will have.
Twist the ponytail in one direction until the length of the ponytail is completely twisted.
Slowly bend the ponytail until you notice the length the of the pony creating an “S” pattern,
follow the bend of the pony and begin to wrap it around the base of the ponytail. At the end
of the ponytail position use a hair pin, curbie or bobby pin so that you can begin pinning
the bun you have now created at the base of the ponytail.
Using more pins create an “X” against the base of the ponytail until the bun feels secure.
Do a shake test to be sure. Finish your style with a medium hold hairspray like Kerastase
Double Force hairspray. And voila, you now have a Fall classic look and an elegant style
that is easy and clean, night or day work or play this style works for almost everyone.
