Hey Ladies

:welcome3: to the LHCF Stylin School Challenge!!!

The style we will be practicing next week 6-12 Feb is the................................. :superbanana:Southern Tease Bun:superbanana:.

Below are 2 tutorials you can use to guide you. I decided to start off with a pretty simple style because I want us to get accustomed to following a video step by step (I dont usually do this and I didnt want to take it for granted that everyone else is accustomed to this).

I know many of you have probably done this bun before but just use it as opportunity to accessorize it. Dress it up a lil, maybe make it a lil messy.. im sure you will come up with sumtin. I have been lurking on this forum for awhile now and I have honestly never attempted this bun. So im excited, it looks like a great go-to style.

Remember we are here to support and help each other so feel free to ask questions etc.

I'll participate. I need to spice it up a bit. I've been going back and forth between messy bun and roller sets for 6+ months.

Its going great so far, it has forced me to think about creating and maintaining the style and ensuring that my hair thrives all at the same time. Plus, i am enjoying my hair again. They are not all protective styles, but so far:

High Bun
Pin Curl Set
Hair Stick Styles
Up-Do
Bantu Knot-Out
Fun with Knots
Twist Out
Double French Braid
Cornrow Braid Out
Braided Bun
Flexi8 Styels
Roller Set
Curly MoHawk
Bun
Faux Bob
French Braid
Up-Do 2
Southerntease bun
Satin Strips Braid Out
Chinablk Braid Out
EZ Comb Styles

Its been fun so far, and I realized that I have learned a lot of ways to style my hair without the use of heat.

Oh yes, definitely. I'm looking forward to seeing them. They up the glam factor tenfold. My flashy earrings game is nonexistent...

 

[theLovelyStyle]

I need to buy cute hair accessories ASAP!!

Im really excited doh.... i kinda wana switch up my appearance this year a little...it probably sounds kinda silly doh 'my hair is styled and im fabulous'

Great Challenge OP. I will be lurking for now.
RE: the Southern Tease bun. Am I the ONLY one who ends up with the hair at the bottom of the bun (nape area) looking rough as strands start to come out of the bun (say 1 hr after I style the hair, especially when my hair has rubbed off on my collar). It just ends up looking 'un-neat.'

:wow:You did a great job, it looks really neat. What is that you held it up with? A hair stick? Your hair is in twist or cornrows? Is it a side bun? or does it just look that way in the pic?

Nice job chica!!

Thank you
It is in twists and held with a hair stick.
It's not a side bun although it could be a little off to the side. This is the first time I have done it.

Planning on lurking for real for real...

Attempt #2 (multiple times this morning)
For the life of me, I could not get the hairsticks to work again so I used a mini claw clip.
I guess the first time was dumb luck.

So pretty! I have never been able to make my twists do this. I am so working on it now! Thanks for sharing.

 

[renren]

Good job lovely!! I think we can say that you have officially got this style down.

I will post my pics tonight and post the new style for next week!!

 

[faithVA]

LovelyGymnasts your bun looks wonderful.

I am feeling intimidated and overwhelmed just thinking about trying some of these.

 

[renren]

Hi Ladies,

This is my first attempt of the southern tease bun. I did it on an old braid out. I dont think I did it right..... its feels a bit slack... or maybe im just accustomed to tight hair bands. Felt like my hair was going to come loose any minute.

Ill try again tomorrow....
