How To Do A Ballet Bun Short Hair Tutorial With Robbie Downey

Hi everyone, so I have a couple requests on how to do a bun with shorter hair. So this is how I'm going to do my bun for performances. But if you wanted to do it for class, you could sue. You need some small bobby pins, a hairnet and hairspray, and I also use a bristle brush so also my hair is kind of dirty right now, there's already some hairspray, because it is way easier to do a bun, especially with shorter hair, with slightly dirty hair. It sounds gross, but I thought to do what you got to do um, so I'm gon na do two twists, so you need to pull out two sections from the front like so part it in the middle or on the side. This is just how we have to do it for Sleeping Beauty, but this is also hi like to do my hair when it was long okay. So then I'm gon na pin these two sections just so they stay forward. Then I'm gon na I have a hair tie on my wrist pull it up. I need a higher bun, so it's gon na be right about here on my head, get my brush, make sure everything is nice and smooth and if you have hair falling out from down here, don't worry about that. You can pin it up when we're done or you can gel it if that works better. Okay, then our cement, okay, now you're gon na put this into a ponytail. Take some hair spray to spray. This part now we're gon na go into the twists, so make sure you've you bought a bobby, pin ready. You can either either use water or a little bit of hairspray just help get it slicked back use this brush again, I can't do my bun without this brush, or else it's not smooth, and then I hold it right about to where my ear comes out. To I start twisting it, this might take a couple tries at first and then I twist it and I take my bobby pin and I pin it and then same thing to the other side. Now, since it's for show, I'm going to be adding a bit more hair spray it to my hair, but if it's for class you can use just more water or a little bit less hairspray. So you don't ruin your hair with a lot of hairspray. Okay! So now I also pull those two twists and then add: another hair tie around it to secure it to the ponytail. Now the trick is, we have to tease our ponytail with short hair, and this is how it works. For me, okay, we need to pin that to pin this first, the hairs that don't go into the bun or the ponytail. Now take your bristle brush and you're gon na tease your hair. I wouldn't recommend doing this every day for class, but for a show. This works really well, it just gives it more volume, so we can make a bun. I also have layers in my hair, so that doesn't help so tease it to how you like it and if it doesn't make the right shape that you want. You can always go back in and tease it a bit more okay, try that so now I'm going to gather it all into one make a loose twist with it and then try to ignore this. I will pin that and the second a loose circle now, if this isn't the right shape, you want go ahead and redo it or tease it a bit more. That should be okay, so you're gon na secure it with two bobby pins. For now one or two up to you, you guys to hold it down, I'm gon na add one more then we're gon na add a hair net, and then you can flatten it out a bit more. So you can pull out the hair a bit to make it a bit bigger and then you're going to pin the rest of it in with a bunch of bobby pins all right, so I haven't redo that button. That just did not feel that did not look good, so I basically re teased the ponytail apart even more to get it poofier and, as you can tell it's already way, fuller than the one before so sometimes you just have to play with. It doesn't always work. So I pinned it in a little bit now, I'm just gon na Riyad the hair net wow. This already feels much better than the previous one. I just didn't like how it looked from the side, especially this my right side, I get less hair except to twist it so now, I'm just gon na pin it down. So it's flat. Sometimes you have to get pins in the right place, so it doesn't deform in and also I have hair pieces. So if it's not completely perfect, it will get covered so try to pin it like right on the edge here, because if you go in the middle it tends to like deform the bun just like pull it down from the edge, and this is sticking up. I can feel it alright, so that's, basically it I'm gon na need my phone, so I can see what I'm doing in the back, but yeah just play with it. I had to reteach it cuz it looked awful mmm. I need to pin this down.
