Easiest Top Knot Tutorial is literally one of the easiest ways to create a perfect donut style bun or top knot.
I use this technique for 90% of my buns so if you are one of those ladies who has been requesting a more detailed tutorial of my bun, this is it!
It takes seconds to do and creates a perfect donut without even needing a donut! When everyone started using donuts in their buns, it took me months to finally purchase one myself because I already knew this little trick and never really needed one.
I hope you find it helpful though and share it with your friends!
Here are the steps for completing the Easiest Top Knot!
- Start by brushing all the hair straight back and into a high ponytail.
- Tie it off with an elastic band.
- Take a section of hair, right at the front, and separate it from the rest of the hair.
- Grab a piece of the hair elastic and pull it away to create a gap.
- Wrap the section of hair through the elastic band creating a loop.
- Take another section of hair and loop it through the hair band again.
- Continue wrapping sections of hair until all of it is looped.
- Grab the center of the bun and pull it outwards, tightening the band, and creating a bigger bun.
- Adjust the shape of the bun so it is proportional.
- Finish by smoothing down any flyaways with hairspray.
This looks so easy, but I have the hardest time doing the back side of the pony tail. Any tips???
I know what you mean ((: I’d suggest doing part then checking in a mirror or you could set up a two way mirror so you can see the back as you go (:
