  The Ultimate Guide to Making a Hair Bun  
 
Equipment Needed
 
  1. Hair brush with close black bristles (Not plastic bristles)
  2. Hard hair pins (not bobby pins)
  3. A hair net with an elastic-band edge
  4. Hair gel- spray bottle type (I suggest Clairol spray gel)
  5. Small spray bottle of water
 
Although it may seem like a daunting task, with the correct equipment and a little practice, the art of "bun-making" will seem like a breeze.
 
Follow the steps outlined below and observe the accompanying photo. If you have any questions regarding a particularly difficult head of hair, ask Madame for more pointers.

Brush out all tangles.   Use a combination of water and spray gel with hair brush to make a smooth ponytail.   Placement of ponytail should be in the middle of the back of the head
         
   
Use more gel if necessary to smooth out any loose hair before starting bun.        
         
   
         
         
   
    Begin to twist hair in a clockwise direction.   As you twist, place hair onto head and pin flat onto head in a doughnut shape.
         
   
    When putting in the pins, place them straight down toward head, catching the edges of the "doughnut".
   
         
   
    It does not matter if the "doughnut" is not smooth, The hairnet will take care of this.
