Bunning Challenge for 2011.

[regina07]

Luscious850 - it's a Canon S90. Great lil camera


Nothing exciting with my buns --- basic twist bun with hair stick. I'm heading into a busy travel period so I need to keep my reggie SIMPLE.

Thanks regina07 you really pointed me in the right direction. Hopefully sunday I will have time to pick up my new toy!

sunnieb - gorgeous bun! I love the thickness!

 

[sunnieb]

Anyone have a good baggy bun tut? I've attempted this a number of times but can't seem to hide the baggy. I know the member @AdoraAdora24 baggy bunned a lot but not sure if she actively posts any longer.

divachyk I remember seeing a tut around here somewhere. Lemme see if I can find it.

Is it too late to join this challenge? I'm a newbie and bunning since the beginning of July and would love to join if the challenge is still open!

JulietWhiskey it's never too late to join! Welcome!

but she didn't use a baggy like I thought. I'll keep looking......

 

[divachyk]

sunnieb - thank you for assisting me on this quest. I'm looking for a tut where the baggy isn't covered by a stocking. The member I referenced above actually baggy bunned by using her hair to conceal the plastic. :scratchch:

@divachyk - Aaak! I know who you're talking about. I remember looking at her fotki. I think she changed her screen name. Wasn't it ReggiesWife or something like that????

ETA: FOUND IT!!!!! I might give this a try the last few weeks of my stretch.

ETA: Thx sunnieb, I do remember seeing the fotki you provided but forgot all about it. Thx for the reminder. The member I was talking about was AdoraAdora24. She still has the same screen name but her pics are no longer up. She had a nice juicy baggy bun.

Today, I dampened my hair with water/AVJ, applied a little EO Essentials Citrus Conditioner and Palm Butter to top, back and ends of hair then used a metal-free elastic to gently hold it in the middle of my head. Next, I applied my phony-pony then covered with a silk scarf.

 

[divachyk]

Figured it out, check out my baggy bun! Sorry if pic large. Didn't get a chance to resize. ETA: I took down the pic. Whew that THANG WAS HUGE. I'll post a pic when I get home from work. Sorry to get you all so excited.

Banana clip bun today

[Blessedwithabundance14]

Sometimes that happens to me too. You just have to make sure your ends are tucked in with the hair that is actually being clipped. You will get it just keep trying until you get it to your liking.

Thanks for your help! I was really getting discouraged

 

[Dee_33]

Same style, just with and without the stick. Good Day's Hair Pins is holding both styles up. The stick in the second pick is just for decoration.

Love this...how did you create this look?

 

[Lanea87]

divachyk, come explain this ma'am.

[divachyk]

*sigh* I wonder why my phone takes such gigantic pics. @sunnieb - do you resize your pics before uploading or does your phone not take life size photos?

 

[divachyk]

@ZebraPrintLover - I posted the baggy bun steps in my blog.


luving me - I blogged about that look.

 

[sunnieb]

divachyk - I set my camera phone to QVGA (don't ask me what that means!) when I know I'm about to take a pic to post.

On my normal high quality setting, the pics were gigantic!

divachyk how often do you do this baggy bun? When you use the cut up stockings do you tie it in a knot and then put on?

 

[divachyk]

@sunnieb - thank you for the camera phone tip. I'll check my settings to see if I have that option.

@divachyk how often do you do this baggy bun? When you use the cut up stockings do you tie it in a knot and then put on?

@ShawnC - I just learned how to baggy bun so I've only done it once thus far (in the pic I posted). I baggy my ends nightly. I think I will just do a baggy bun at random, with no particular schedule in mind. Just depends if I want to give the ends some extra moisture.

 

[Lanea87]

Look what I found at a local BSS, they also had the size that divachyk has in her blog (the size thats bigger, I think 3 1/2 inches)

[divachyk]

Nix08 ZebraPrintLover luving me ShawnC - I added pics to my blog for the baggy bun. I also placed pics of how I baggy my ends nightly. I started this almost a year ago. The goal is to give my ends some extra moisture throughout the night. I think it has helped with retaining. Since I baggy nightly, I won't baggy bun too often throughout the week to avoid over moisturizing my hair.

OMG my pic is so dang on big you can actually see my fingerprints LOL.....

 

[divachyk]

ZebraPrintLover - mine are too when I post directly from my phone. I've tried every possible setting and it's still gigantic! I now just upload to photobucket, resize and post. A pain but that's how I avoid the large pics.

 

[Lanea87]

Imma see what I can do so that I wont be blinding you ladies LOL

 

[bebezazueta]

I actually dont mind the big pics. Looking good ladies!

thanks for the link
Nice baggy bun, I do your nightly baggie during the daytime except I mist and moisturize oil my hair before the baggie goes on. Then I cover it with a clean black sock and secure it with another scrunchie/headband.

 

[LadyRaider]

I was wondering if anyone had the idea to cover the store bought sally's donut bun with satin ribbon to protect your hair?

Someone mentioned covering on with hair, but I was wondering if satin ribbon would work.

I think at this stage only the donut bun would work for me.
