No Pins or Ties

No, not voodoo or BDSM, just hair. I can put my hair up with nothing but my own hair! I won't be selfish - I will share the knowledge with you. I don't think I truly invented it, but I was playing with my hair one day trying to do a gibson tuck and it stayed by itself. There is a girl on YouTube who does something similar, if you want to check that out, too. 




1st: 
Pull your hair back into a high or mid-high ponytail.




2nd: 
Wrap your hair around the ponytail to make a bun.




3rd: 
Make a hole with your fingers in the hair near your scalp at the top of the bun. Let the bun loosen a little if you need to. 




4th: 
Flip the bun over into the hole. Make sure no pieces are falling through and that the bun has not loosened that much. 


5th: 
Take the top sides of the flip and move them to cover the top of the flipped bun that is sticking out. If you want a more doughnuty look, pull the hole in the middle to open it up more. 

Tada! If you kept it tight enough it should stay for at least a few hours. My hair is not super slippery, so if your hair is, I have no idea if this will work for you.

Also, what is with the light-brown strand of hair at the nape of my neck? There is no way it's getting sun-bleached down there...  Anyone know why I have this?

  1. Yay, this even worked for my fine hair! Maybe you have a birthmark at the root of the light spot? I've heard that they can make hair light or white even.
