Hey everyone, so this video is going to be a hair tutorial on how to achieve this braided bun updo, with extensions so for all you, girls out there like me, who have super short hair and you can barely pull it into a ponytail. This video is definitely for you, so if you want to know how to achieve this, braided bun look please keep watching the video now. What you're going to need for this look are two hair elastics, some bobby pins, a brush, hairspray and hair extensions. My extensions are 20 inches and they're from bombay hair and the wefts that i'm going to be using are their 8 inch weft with four four clips and they're seven inch weft with four clips and they're six inch weft with three clips. Now you can do whatever you want to the front of your hair. I just did this because it's really fast for me to do um, you could braid across the front. You can do this, you can you can do anything, it really doesn't matter. The whole point about this tutorial is about the bun in the back, so the first thing i'm going to do is i'm going to pull my hair into a very low ponytail, and you can see that my hair is really really short. So i'm going to have the smallest ponytail, like you've ever seen, i'm just going to use some hairspray to help keep my hair in the ponytail, because i have such tiny hairs that these will try to pop out. So i'm going to use hairspray just to keep them in place and there is my tiny little struggle of a ponytail. So now i'm going to take my eight inch weft, i'm just going to comb it out and i'm going to open up the clips of course, and i'm just going to clip this all around the ponytail. You want to get as close to the ponytail as possible. Now i had some hair fall out right here, so i'm just going to use a bobby pin to pin that back. So next i'm going to be using the seven inch weft with the four clips. Now you can use any um size weft. You want, depending on how thick you want the ponytail to be i'm using this one, because it has the most hair now the six inch weft with three clips, and i'm just going to put this one over top here, because now we have run out of room Underneath i could have brought my ponytail higher, but because my hair is so short, i had to bring it really low, and now we have our super long ponytail and what we're going to do now is braid this so you're going to braid as far down as You can as possible and then just tie that off with a hair tie. Now the next step is we're going to wind this braid around into a bun and, of course, cover up all the wefts that are showing when you get the end of the braid. You just want to tuck it underneath the bun then use bobby pins to secure. Now, once your bun is pure, you just want to finish it off with some hairspray. So here's the finished, look from the left side and the right side and the back. So that is my super fast and easy way to achieve an updo with nearly any hair at all and, of course, with extensions. I hope you guys enjoyed this tutorial and i hope to see you in the next video bye

Marisa Wade: This is really pretty. My hair is the same length as yours, and my bombay hair extensions were just shipped. I cant wait to try this look and find some of my own. This is a simple look to do and its cute. Brillant Thanks(:

Melissa Lewis: What kind of extensions would you recommend for someone with a grown out pixie cut? It's getting just long enough now that I think I could cover the wefts with the layers that I do have. My hair is naturally very fine and wavy but I have quite a bit of hair! I'm just torn on the length/weight of extensions I should get since my hair is so short, but I realize I may need a lot of hair to cover up the fact that I basically have only 3" of hair. Also, will very straight, slick hair extensions blend well with my naturally wavy hair? I feel like the hair textures are so different, it would be much harder to blend even if I straightened or attempted to curl my hair.
