I’m thrilled to share this simple up-do hair tutorial with you. It’s the perfect summer hairstyle (especially during this heat wave) and would look amazing on any bride or her bridesmaids, and the best part is that it’s much simpler and easier than it looks to create.
I’d love if you left a comment letting me know what you thought and if you tried it.

Hey guys welcome back, I am so excited to share today's video with you. It'S a really easy, textured effortless low button. I think you guys are going to be so surprised with how simple this hairstyle is. I promise you this time. It'S truly easy, but I can't wait for you guys to see so. Let'S go ahead and get started to prep my hair. I created soft waves using a 1 and a quarter inch barrel and I just wrapped one inch sections of hair away from my face and to help the curls hold their shape. I just try to catch them in my hand as they fall off the barrel and then I just squeeze the hair until it's cool and then release the curl next. My new fave is this Amica texturizing spray. I love this stuff. It creates the perfect amount of texture and volume without weighing down your hair, plus it smells amazing. Alright, hair is prepped time to section so part your hair is normal and just place a finger at the back of your part, then roughly trace a line down behind your ear to the nape of your neck then place this front section out of the way. For now, and then repeat it on the right side, tracing from the back of your part behind your ear to the nape of your neck and just placing that section out of the way. Next up loosely gather your hair into a low ponytail. Try not to flatten all that volume that we added since we'll be creating a bun I'd recommend gathering the hair about an inch or two up from the nape of your neck, similar to how I have it here now, take a strong hair elastic and carefully secure. Your ponytail into place and then, instead of pulling your ponytail all the way through on the last loop, you just want to partially pull it through, creating a bun for that effortless appearance, just pull on the sides of your bun, Fanning it out, and then on small Sections to add texture and, of course, pull on small sections of hair around your crown to add even more volume and lift. Now the fun part grab the tail from your bun, with your right hand, pull it towards the right and then bring it up and cross it over your bun and then just hold your ends in place with one hand while you adjust the hair. So if your hair is shorter, you can make this tighter and if your hair is longer, you can make it nice and loose that way. You have less ends to worry about later on once you're happy with it secure your ends into place to the left of your bun and don't worry about it being perfect, because the next step will help hide any bobby pins if your ends are still showing like Mine gather them up keeping your ends pointed down and just secure them right into place where we had bobby pins earlier now I love the undone look of the ends showing but feel free to completely tuck them away. Now we're almost there is to grab your left section from earlier and pull out any small pieces of hair to frame your face and then lightly twist. This section clockwise once and this will help hold all of the hair into place once twisted gently pull on the bottom of your twists to fan it out, which will also cover your bobby pins, then loosely bring that section across the back of your head. Above your bun and then secure ends into place just to the right of your bun. And if you don't want your ends, showing just fold them up and pin them out of the way and then grab your right section, pulling small pieces out to frame your face and this time loosely twist it once counterclockwise and then fan it out by pulling on The bottom of your twists, I just love the elegance of the step, adds to the hairstyle and then loosely bring that section across the back of your head above your previous twist secure it into place to the left of your bun, and you can use your previous Twists to help hide your bobby pins and then take any remaining ends and bring them underneath your bun pinning them out of the way until you're happy with the appearance you can completely abduct them away for a more polished, feel or leave a few small strands out For a more effortless look and then don't forget to lock it into place with your favorite hairspray. So are you surprised? Was it easier than you thought it was going to be you'll have to comment, and let me know, but I really hope that you enjoyed today's video. If you did, please don't forget to give it a thumbs up, and if you really like these, like simple effortless buns, I will link some similar hair tutorials down below for you. But thank you so much for watching you guys. I really hope you enjoyed this tutorial and I will talk to you guys in my next video bye.
Comments
Amanda Emily: I used this tutorial for when I was a bridesmaid and it was perfect! This updo was so easy and quick to do - it took me not even 5 minutes and it looks like I spent forever doing it. I feel like it’s also a good hairstyle for everyday too. Thank you for sharing this tutorial! Will definitely be looking at more of your videos! :)
DoctorKatherine: After trying this a couple times and struggling because my hair is so thick, I experimented with a slight alteration. Instead of one ponytail in the middle, I began with two ponytails (one stacked on top of the other one) and then continued the same way. It helped my hair feel way more secure! It’s like a double-decker bun!
Meadow Perkins: I did this for my prom and everyone loved it and thought i got it done professionally♡ love it!
Theresa Tench: Step 1. Have a thick hair Step 2. Be a blonde so that the details are visible

JestemLucyna: I really was surprised how easy this was! I tried it a few months ago and got so many compliments. I’m watching again now to repeat this look for a wedding. My hair is nowhere near as long and beautiful as hers, so for the bun, I just made a messy bun and bobby pinned pieces into place to make it look bigger before going on to the side twists. Ok now I kind of feel like those people that comment on recipes like “Great recipe - I literally substituted everything - but great recipe!” Haha but those side twists are genius!! Thanks, Alex!
Justcheckin1212: This hair style is not SO easy nor effortless ...it does take effort! However when you get the hang of it and tweak it here and there for your own hair it’s actually not too difficult for how it looks in the end. I wore this style for an event and got so many compliments!

Ana Reis: Awesome and easy! I will try it this weekend ;)
Princess Ari: Your hairstyles perfectly match my sense of style. So glad I found your channel.
