How To Do A Perfect Ballet Bun | Suffolk Dance

Hi dancers, it's Catherine Morgan and today I'm hopefully going to take some of these stress out of doing your hair for ballet. Let'S face it. A lot of us have gone through that. So I'm going to show you how to do the perfect bun using Suffolk's, bun buddies. We have them in three different colors blonde brown and black, and we have them in two different sizes and these look like little Donuts. But I'm gon na show you how they can really take the hassle out of doing your bun and give you a perfect bun, so I will link them in the box below, along with all the other products I'm using before we I show you. I want to tell you about suffix other hair products. These are the bobby pin sets that we have, and I'm absolutely obsessed with these. We have the typical bobby pin hair pin set, which has 200 pins in it in these little containers, and then we also have the extra strength hair pins in both short and long and all three of these pin sets also come in blonde brown and black. So you can get your hair color or close to it and then finally, Suffolk has their own line of hair nets. These come in five colors, so you can really get the right color hair net for you. So I'm going to show you how to use these and it's going to change your life. Okay dancer, so we are gon na start with the smaller button buddy. This is, if you have shorter hair, so that's me short and thin hair, so we're gon na just slip it the ponytail through the bun buddy like so, and now all you really want to do is take the hair. You can kind of split it it easier. If you split it and just mold the hair around the bun buddy, this does not have to be perfect again. I don't have a ton of hair, so I'm not going to do this perfectly and I'm gon na take another ponytail holder and just slip it around. The bun buddy to hold the hair, and now you can kind of pull and play with it and cover up that bun buddy. So it looks like a beautiful bun. How easy is this, so I'm actually for this gon na use the bobby, pin and hair pin set from Suffolk, I'm just going to you tuck in these ends. Again, I don't have a lot of hair that can wrap around this, so I'm just gon na tuck. The ends in and I'm actually gon na, pin the bun buddy to my head a little bit that way it doesn't slide around. Remember you guys. The bun buddy comes in three colors blonde brown and black, and you just fiddle around you know. Everybody'S hair is different. Mine is very thin, so I don't need a lot of extra stuff going on. So that's the idea and I would do a better job tucking. Those in but well you can also do is use one of our hair nets. This is the dark brown to help you with all these extra ends. If you have them and put it around once or twice, but I like doing it once just because it doesn't, then you don't really get that sort of hair net and look and I'm gon na tuck that in and then pin it. That can also kind of help you get those ends in and kind of, tame them and a way to really secure the bun and your hair to your head dancers. Is I don't know if you can see this? I put the pin in like so and then I kind of do this around and tuck method and it feels really secure so one more time pin in around and tuck. So it's almost like you're going like that with the hair pin, and that is for the short hair, okay dancer. So I have pinned in some fake hair that I've funfact have to use on stage to show you the big one. So this is, if you have really thick hair, we have a big bun buddy, so I'm going to do exactly the same thing. So now, all of that hair and it's kind of the same thing - you can divide it into two sections. If that's easier for you and then just kind of fold it around the bun buddy like so so, I'm gon na take our ponytail holder again put it around the bun buddy there we go and see. Now you can again kind of move it around and you can do this, whether you do a high bun, a medium bun and low bun, wherever you do your bun, instead of just tucking it in. Obviously, we have way too much hair to tuck in and I'm gon na use the bigger extra-long extra strength, long hair pins for this one. I'M gon na secure this just a little bit before I start wrapping the hair, because I want this to be secured to my head, so I'm just gon na pin it in a little bit. Now I'm going to split this hair, that's left into two and start twisting it around a little bit. You can also do it in one. If you have really long hair, you can do it in one, but for this I'm actually gon na. Do it in two pieces and just kind of twist it around, and actually this is gon na finish it off really nicely and just kind of twist around and it's gon na give it a nice little finish and again dancers. This is personal for everybody so play around with what works for you play around with the look that you want. I can't actually see what I'm doing right now. So if I could, I would probably fix a couple things, but just twist and pin and figure out what you like. But the whole purpose of this bun buddy is to give you that nice flawless shape of a bun. So it just makes it easy and you're not trying to figure out how to get that perfect bun without you know just gives you some structure. Okay, again rough job, you can leave it there or again take one of the hair nets. Put it around it'll kind of clean it up a little bit, you can double twist it. If you want again, I like one time around and then to tuck it in so it doesn't look very hairnet ish and then you have a nice bun. So that's it dancer is really really easy. Whether you have lots of hair, not me or a little bit of hair me, you can pick the size that works for you again. It'S trial and error figuring out how you, like it figuring out where it works. For you, but it's just to help you get that beautiful round classic ballet bun shape.
