- Placement – The classic ballet topknot bun extends an aesthetically pleasing line from the jaw and cheekbones to the highest top point at the back of your head. A low bun can look sharp with a mid-part, or more casual with some loose, softening wisps.
- The hair needs to have as much traction or grip in it as possible to stay up. Apply a little Volume powder to absorb your natural oils and to add some texture and grip which helps give your bun hold and shape.
- Your ponytail will place your bun either at the top, mid or lower point of the back of your head. Making a ponytail will anchor your bun.

Wrap the hair tightly around the ponytail base, tucking in the end. We prefer securing our bun with a makes a single big pin that curves to the head — it’s the simplest hair accessory in the world.
- The Undone Bun – Add some volume through your roots and leaving some locks strategically loose for a soft, elegant look. Slice and curl some face-framing strands before sweeping the rest of your hair up into a high ponytail. Pinch out some loose strands around the nape and the sides so the style feels looser. This elegant style keeps you cooler in summer and has a bouncy finish with lots of movement.
- The Half Bun – Create a high pony tail using only the hair at the crown, twist and secure with a hair fork.
- The Treatment Bun – Multi-tasking done right. Be that person who pulls off an effortlessly stylish bun while simultaneously deeply conditioning your hair. Massage a little bit of Repair Mask through your hair after brushing, and use your fingers to comb it back before securing your ponytail, twisting and securing your bun with a hair fork.
