Sometimes less is more. And just a simple side chignon can look very chic.
Try not to make a perfect bun, but not messy either. Keep the hairstyle pretty plain. The hair should be second place. The attention should be focused on something else from your elegant shoes to your new lipstick, or something more profound like the love that’s in your heart.
This is a pretty big bun. And it’s not really messy, it just gives that illusion.
To make this bun, you can start with a high ponytail, but it’s not really necessary; it’s just easier this way. Then you gently start twisting the hair and also gently pull little sections of hair from the twist. So, gently is the keyword here. It’s easier if the hair is silky and slippery; it really helps and looks better. Then you twist some more and make a bun and secure with hair pins.
You may add silk (or natural) flowers or some cute hair accessory, if you like.
If, when you try to make the infinity bun, your result looks more like a figure 8 bun, don’t worry, there is a bun with this name too.
Basically, it’s the same thing; twist, make a figure 8 and secure with a hair stick or two.
Actually, the infinity bun and the figure 8 bun are not exactly suitable for layered hair, because they look messy. But they are very stable buns and with a single hair stick! And let’s not forget it takes less than 30 seconds to make this bun (or the previous one).
So, it’s a great bun…
