Hey babes!!! Okay from the title you can see I'm sharing 5 ways to style a messy bun!!! And you might be thinking that's a little bit much... like, who needs to know 5 different ways to style a messy bun?! So hear me out, I wanted to make this video because I get SO many questions about the messy bun!!! It's a little bit tricky, kind of random a not easily duplicated. So I thought I'd round up my favorite ways to style a messy bun in hopes that one of these ways might actually click with you!!! I typically style the first messy bun - it's just my go-to for most things. But if you don't understand it and are having a hard time with the steps, try out #2! And maybe your hair is too thick for #2 so you'd move on to #3! Make sense?! So yeah, I'm a being a bit dramatic. But that's not unusual is it?! I just want you guys to finally get that perfect messy bun down and when that ah-ha moment comes, you better dm me so I can enjoy your happiness!!!!

Hey everybody: it's your girl, Abbi welcome back to my channel. So today I'm gon na be teaching you how to do a lemon bun and not just one way or two ways or even three left's. I boys and I get that's a little bit over the top. I hear me out: I get a lot of questions and dm's about the messy bun and I get that it's a little bit tricky, so it's kind of random and all over the place. So I thought it would be fun to round up my favorite ways to style the messy bun in hopes that one of these ways might actually click with you. So let me know in the comments below if it does, which one was your favorite don't forget to subscribe below and let's get into this video messy bun number one. So you're gon na pull the hair up as high as you want and then pull the hair through the elastic instead of pulling it all the way through, like you, would a ponytail or something you're. Just gon na leave out a few inches on the ends and then twist the elastic and start pulling the elastic over the bun, and you can see that the hand with the elastic on it is covering the bun now right here, I'm not pulling the elastic all The way over the bun, I want a couple of cute bubbles in it, so I'm making those with the elastic. So that is intentional, that the elastics not going all the way over and from here I'm just cinching up the elastic so that it's tighter and then pushing ends that might have slipped out or bubbles that are too big back into the elastic so spend some time Here, shaping your bun, how you want it you can make it look, super big and fluffy or smelling tight. That is totally up to you and then at the very end you can add a bobby pin here or there. If you need it. I typically avoid pins when I can, but every now and again I'll use one on the side in this specific button. So you can see right here that it's kind of flopping around on the side, so I'm just gon na add a pin so that it's nice and secure. So this is messy bun and number one. What do you guys think you messy bun number two? So I'm putting two fingers in front of the ponytail and wrapping my hair around them and then to the side. Just like so and then you're gon na rotate your wrist. And you can see that as I do, that it's actually twisting the hair and pulling the ends up into the twist. So once the ends are all twisted up. I'M just gon na bring my hand forward, so the loop I'm holding is now near the front and then we're just gon na secure it. So I'm pushing three bobby pins with the flat side down into the bun, and the trick here is to make sure that the bobby pins crisscross in the center that way they'll support each other and keep the bun really tight. And then, after that, you can kind of tug a little bit on the pieces to make the bun a little bit bigger and that's it. This bun honestly works really great on thin hair, and it's also how I do my half top knots and my space buns. So it's a little bit more tidy and cleaner than the others. Now I'm gon na throw in some extensions, because I want you guys to see how I've been putting them in lately. So I pull my hair half up and place a fork, lift weft right near the temples. Then I gather the hair again and pull it back into a high hop up and right at the ears I put in a three clip weft, but this time I put it in upside down that way. When I pull the hair from my neck up, it's going in the right direction on to messy bun number three you're gon na pull your hair into a ponytail. I prefer mine or right on top of my head, but we're gon na split the tail in half and twist each side in the same direction once they're, both twisted in the same direction, you're gon na twist them together in the opposite direction. So if you were twisting them to the right or away from your face, you're now gon na twist them together to the left or towards your face once the twist is completed, you're just gon na tug and pull on the sections to make the twist a little Bit bigger kind of more fuzzy and fluffy, that's how I prefer mine and then secure it with a clear elastic and then we're just gon na wrap it around the ponytail and secure it with a couple bobby pins all right. What do you think about messy bun number three? I really love this line and it looks fabulous. If you have a really really long hair, then you can really make it big and see the details in the twists. A messy bun number four we're gon na start by pulling the hair into a half bun, so it's like you're putting your hair up into a ponytail, but on the last pass only bring half of the hair through the elastic and then you're gon na fan the Bun out so that it's nice and big and fluffy and then we're gon na wrap the ends of the ponytail around the bun. So wrap is many times as you can. That'Ll depend on the length of your hair and then secure it with a bobby pin or two to the base of the elastic and then you're. Just gon na fan out the bun and pin it on each side to close those loops. And I had one straight piece over here, so I'm just rolling it up into the bun and pinning it out of sight, and then I'm done with this one. What do you guys think and last but not least, messy bun number five. I honestly prefer this one as a lower bun, so that's where I'm gon na put it, but I'm gon na pull the hair into a half button. It'S still going like you're doing a ponytail and then don't pull the ends all the way through. On the very last, pass have fun get it so from here. We'Re gon na get a little creative, I'm pulling up one of the sides and pinning it a few inches above the ponytail and then I'm taking a section of the bun on the right and just lifting it up and then putting my finger into the loop right. There you can't really see it very well, but I'm putting my finger into the loop and just pinning the loop secure with a bobby pin and the flat side of the bobby pin is on the bottom. I'M just lighting it in, and this is all kind of random, so it'll probably look very different for you. But next I'm just gon na roll up a section of hair from the ponytail and twist it in place to the side of the bun and then last. But not least, I'm going to take the last section and roll it into the elastic so you're, just gon na pin and tuck hair into the elastic until you get this really pretty bun. What do you guys think about messy bun number? Five and that's it, you guys my five favorite messy buns, who knew there were so many ways to messy bun. Let me know in the comments which one is your favorite or which one you typically do the most or if there's another way, that you do your messy bun that I need to learn.

Sara Cassieri: OMG I love messy bun number two, because my hair is short and thin and I honestly didn’t think that I would be able to do a messy bun but you have proved me wrong thank you so much!!!
chelsey makes: I have pretty long thin hair, so I have a lot of length to work with but not a lot of it. so my favourite way to do a messy bun is to start like I'm putting it in a pony, but on the last loop leave a small bubble. So after I have my small bun with a long tail, I can either braid the tail into a three strand braid or even a fishtail or rope braid. Then I'll have a small bun with a braid hanging off, and I just wrap the braid around the base of the bun and pin into place. Idk if that made any sense, but hopefully you understand what I mean haha.
Twinkle Toes: Thank you so much! I loved the low bun look
Jan Voght: Best Ever messy bun tutorial I have found! Thanks so much for the amazing inspiration.

If you part your hair on the right then you want it on the lower left side.)

S Y: You make it look so easy!:). I need lots of practice
Emily Ferrier: I love hair style number 3!!!!!! I have never been able to do a bun but these styles are super EASY!!!! :)
Lanae H: I think I’ve tried all these ways! For me, most of the time what works best is to put the hair in a high ponytail. Then I lean my head forward and fan the hair around so it’s falling around all sides of my head. Then I use a second elastic and gather the hair in a bundle so it looks like a bun. I wrap the elastic around once, then wrap all the ends around the bun and finish wrapping the elastic. That may not be a very clear description lol! It’s a lot easier than it sounds
Kiera: #3, #4 & #5 work very well with Thick and medium length hair! <3

Bailey Robertson: This is the best tutorial ever! Needed it! I can’t even pick a favorite.
n go: I'm going to my cousins wedding and needed tips how how to do an updo for fine hair. This video was super helpful! Thanks! ; )
