Many young and old dancers struggle with making a nice clean bun that will stay in and secure. A lot of them don't know about bun makers, that will help you make a perfect bun fast and easily. I have talked about these in a past blog but now I am going to teach you step by step how to use them. The bun maker I will be explaining is a slap bracelet one with two sides that you pinch the hair between, you can get them at Claire's, target, Wal-Mart, or even at dance studios.
Step one: brush out hair and put gel in roots to keep all of your baby hairs down and slicked back
Step two: pull your hair back tightly into a neat pony tail, make sure it is tight.
Step three: (this step is a little more tough for people with layers in their hair) make the bun maker straight and make sure its two sides snap the same way, place it by your pony tail with your hair in-between the two sides.
Step four: pinch the two sides tightly together and slide up to the top of your ponytail keeping the hair in between the bun makers sides
Step five: gently start rolling the bun maker down till it touches your head and feels like it will be tight (this my take a couple tries)
Step six: snap the bun maker around your pony tail and spread the hair around the bun maker.
Step seven: add bobby pins if need be, hairspray, and use more gel to make it more secure, if you want it a little bit tighter you can put a ponytail holder around the whole bun, this also keeps baby hairs down.
Now you will never have messy unprofessional hair again. I hope this helps, I use my bun maker almost every day, I couldn't get along with out it.
