I've been wearing this type of bun for the last couple of weeks. I usually have to put in track hair to make a bun because my own bun looks no bigger than a mini meatball. :lol: But when I rediscovered my accordian headbands (see pic below) I realized I can have another big bun illusion. :drunk:

Fooling around with a twist-out. Tried it first with ouchless hairclips, then with a headband. Not sure which way I will wear it. Hoping it is not too tangled when I wash and condition it and put it back in twists. I don't wear twist-outs too much because my hair tangles like mad...

Here is my hair today. I have been messing around with different rollers to replicate a wave pattern for a weave I want. I finally got it.

The color and shine on your twists ---- :drool:

Your hair has taken off! I love how the ends twirl. I have to manually twist mine to get a good end twirl these days. I think my hair needs a good trim. How long is your hair stretched? I want to see your buns (hehehe that sounds funny).

Today's style was a slickd back high bun. I love it, but the bun looks fake cause all of my new growth is curly

wavezncurlz thaaank you!! my hair stretched is maybe like an inch or an inch and a half past apl. it's like 3 or so inches from bsl for me. and my buns are not nearly as lovely as yours are, so they really aren't all that picture worthy. I'm wearing my hair in a bun today, actually. you have beautiful buns :giggle:

I am currently unravelling my micro twists that I kept for a month now. God knows how I’m struggling. I really feel like making a bun from now on as a protective style. Please, I need your positive vibes to get through this process

Take down time can be the worst. Don't rush. Be gentle so you will end up happy

Tonto I hope your takedown went well. I like to oil up my twists and unravel slowly so I get the shed strands out; I try my hardest not to rip through the knots. I only use my fingers; no combs or brushes.

IMFOCSD I'm expecting to see more flat twist styles. Feel free to make tutorials for us untalented folk.

TeeBee I'm expecting to see more styles from you too. Pretty hair and lady. Welcome to the board.

Hairsnob That is a nice 'cheat' bun that looks very comfortable and damage proof. :up:

I was inspired by all the twisted updoes in this thread. I haven't twisted my hair in God only knows how long. Over a year for sure. But I needed something new besides my go-to WnG.

It took me about an hour and a half to twist it all up.


ETA: How I rocked it!

Not even halfway done... I’ve been so lazy these days+ classes. I’m trying to get my sister to help me unravel them, because if I do it myself it could take up to a week...
:sad:
 
My first twisted updo. It's.... Good enough. I need to figure out how to part better...

I reserve the right to unravel them on the way to work :look:

So ladies I have been sick and high on cold/allergy meds. I dunno what possessed me to take down my cornrows last night to rock my big Friday Hair (as it's known by some of my coworkers) but I sure did. This is my first time rocking a cornrow out! I usually rebraid it into celie's for a big poofy braidout.

Here it is right after taking out my cornrows last night:

And here it is on Day 2 (today):

It turned out okay but I still prefer my big, fluffy braid outs..
 
Blah. Just the result of quickly braiding my hair and taking it out when I finished housework. I imagine it'd look nice if my braids were neater and in longer. :look:
