Some days you wake up and you know that you just won’t do anything with your hair. Although a ponytail can fix this instantly, sometimes the “tail” part also looks a mess so that option is out the window. Washing it isn’t an option because you’re too lazy to do so. So, what’s the next best option?
A messy bun! This hairstyle is great for pretty much any occasion but for the days you when you can’t be bothered to put any effort, a messy bun will do the trick. It’s really easy to do and you only need these styling products:
–Sea salt spray
–An elastic
–Bobby pins
Here’s what you need to do:
Step 1: Brush out your hair so there aren’t any knots. After you’ve done that, spray in sea salt spray all over the hair so that there’s a ton of texture and volume in it. Tease here and there if you still want more volume.
Step 2: Bend your head down and gather all of the hair where you want the bun to be. Flip your head back up and comb the hair with your fingers if needed.
Step 3: While you’re grabbing the hair where you want the bun to be, take the remaining hair with your other hand and wrap it around to create a bun. Secure it with an elastic or bobby pins.
Step 4: Take out hairs here and there to create a wispy look.
