Same here...neither worked for me and I went and bought another magic bun a few weeks ago because I thought it would work better for me now that my hair is longer, but it did not work for me this time either. It didn't look neat enough for me and it was too tight. My head was screaming.

I got mine today and immediately tried it. The bun is very cute and very neat but my problem is the bun is too low for my liking. When I pull my hair up higher so my bun can be in the middle, the clamp will not close. Could this be because I'm 7 weeks post? IDK...I can do slanted buns too. Overall, I like this thing. I will try to do a higher bun whenever I do my touchup

Well I couldnt find the Magicbun thing, but I did find the Hairagami and after about a couple of hours of figuring out how to use it I finally got it to work. It was ok, but made my hair kind of poofy in the front.
I'll be on the search for the Magicbun next to see how that works out.

I know if I'm having a hard time closing the clamp when I try to do a high bun. I know you're going to catch hayl You should be able to do a low bun though and dang this magicbun thingy is a size large. Let me know how it goes. Yep, I think the thing came 2 days later after we ordered.

Oh wow, I had one of those in the late 90s. Never could get it to work the way I wanted though. LOL

Ordered mine and a few other closeout items {the shipping cost warranted a few other 0.99 cents purchases} from Scrunchi.com on the 20th; same day as Henna's post...received e-mail 2 days later that order had been shipped. I ordered a few of them. Fast shipping even...with a personal check. Looking forward to trying it.

I got mine today!! I had to try it out several times before I got it to fit right but I like it . At first I could only get it to clamp "up" but I wanted it to clamp "down" like on the picture, I still need an inch or two more hair for it to look as big as I'd like but definately a keeper for protective stylin.

Walking the pup, saw the mailtruck slow to a stop in front of my house...yoohooed the mailman..SCUNCHI {not SCRUNCHI as I was thinking it was}...had sent my 6 Magics and I tried it, two tries but it's on..quite comfy.....hair looks blah in photo but the bun can become cute. Good I bought 6 of them. {{Attachment problems..no photo yet!}}

Tried and tried to make the photo small enough to attach..I am going to take a class soon..I cannot stand not knowing how to attach or add photos to my posts without a struggle!!! Trying to make a higher bun but is not easy..will take practice to make it smooth and neat. The teeth are not rough but a high bun takes care to avoid a strand pull and the video teacher was right..Easier usage when hair is straight; I'm almost week 9 stretch...thick roots. Left click and it'll {photo}enlarge.

That's as low as I can get my bun too. I think we'll be able to get a higher bun once we get our touch ups. I'm 8 weeks post and I tried and tried to get a high bun but the clamp would not close. I did mine while my ends were moist and it came out very cute and neat. I took the magicbun right off as soon as I saw how it looked
I'm a baggied girl but I'm going to use this from time to time. Just wanted more hair accessories to do more protective styling and this magicbun is definitely worthy of being used

Yup..yours looks so cute. Easy feel and comfortable in the hair..just takes a little bit of work and a unique bun is formed.

Did you try to start up higher? I put my hair in a scrunchy first, put the hair bun thingy on, slid the scrunchy off and proceeded from there. Clear as mud...lol!
I haven't had a texlax since Feb 15...I think when I do get one, I'll have to do this on wet hair. I'm really enjoying it...I think I'm doing something wrong though. I had to tuck some ends in. I just did one on the top of my head...I look like a ballerina
Umm...clears throat...where are the pix Ms Tsmith?? You know I wanna see!
ETA: Thanks ladies!
