Buns for shorter hair

[Ganjababy]

For us shorties and those who are longer but want to baggy-


With all this talk about buns I want to start bunning (and baggy at the sometimes) but after Bc'ing in August of last year there is no way I can bun at this time as my hair is way too short. Luckily I can now put my hair in one so I have decided that I will do phoney buns with hair extensions -thanks Glamazon386! I will also be covering my buns with snoods/cages/bun covers.

First I will be baggying my itty bitty ponytail, then I will wrap with fake hair to give bulk if needed (if it is a small crochet snood I will not need this) then cover with bun cover. When I am not baggying I will just skip the first step.

Anyone interested, I have pasted a few styles

This will be my protective style for the rest of the year. Armpit length here I come!

Thanks for the pictures now I have a new idea. I forgot that they had bun cages. They are so fashinable and different. My hair is 6 inches. Is that long enough to add weave extensions to for buns?

As long as you can brush it up into one you should be able to- just pin it in to secure.

Great idea! I might try this and revisit phony ponies. Phony ponies never worked out too well for me because I couldn't get them to look realistic, but using a cage might make it work. Thanks!

oh. my goodness. I'm in love.

$79 for the extra large. Let me see how tight I can get my bun. I'm get this.

Corbin makes and at one time was selling bun covers.

I used to wear an octopus clip, all the time!!! They are great, will catch all those stray hairs that won't fit. These are great protective styles, they really are!

Some of those are really cute. I like this one

Not feeling those knitted ones.

I have these two and love them!!! Hairboutique has great hair toys I also have bun snoods, which I love!

Have any of you considered a UPA Clip? That's a great protective style. I love mine!

I get them from random ebay stores. I can't remember the name of them, but try going to ebay and typing in "dancer bun snood"

Great thread. I was thinking about bunning but I decided not to relax my nape for a while so I'm not sure how this will look on me. If I can get my nape to cooperate, I may consider wearing these with a phony bun for a while.

I have three but the ones I have no longer match my hair texture because I bought them when I was relaxed. I would buy more natural looking ones and though the product is very good I did not like the customer service and found the seller to be unreliable and quite caustic so I do not think I would order again
