Hair Tutorial: Nautilus Bun using Marley Braid Hair - Video

[naturalmanenyc]

I got the urge to try a nautilus bun with leftover braiding hair. It was really late, around 1:30 a.m. but I did record it. It's a 30 second style once you get the hang of it and prep your hair.

Me likey too ! Thanks for the tutorial. I actually did a bun today using Marley braiding hair and I think it'll be a good PS for the winter.

That hair blends really well. Looks like a good protective style.

 

[naturalmanenyc]

^^ That is my plan, to use this as a protective style for the fall/winter.

Cute, I need a protective style that I can work out with while I take a break from braids/twists.

Thanks for the tutorial. I need to find hair and try this.

I love it! I need a fuller bun. Thanks naturalmanenyc

I am going to alternate between this style and a couple of curly half wigs for the fall/winter. I considered Senegalese twists but cannot justify spending $200. I really need to practice doing my own extensions.

Cute style!

Glad ladies are finding the video useful.

Just stopped at the BSS to get color 4 but it is too light. I'm sticking with color 2.

I wore this style this week for an MRI. You can't have metal in your hair so no half wigs or bobby pins. I also didn't want to wear a twist out since it would be squished while laying in the machine. This bun was the perfect solution. Even the MRI tech couldn't believe it had no pins.

I want to try this so bad. Is it really secure?

Yep, totally secure. I've had this bun in all day between doctors appointments, on the subway (up and down stairs), on the bus, and to a apartment complex meeting (up and down more stairs). It has not moved at all. I suspect that if it was silkier hair, it might have slipped out.
