This hairstyle is simple and sweet and the messy vibe is sure to enhance your overall look. To create this messy knot bun, pull your hair back into a ponytail and divide the tail into four sections. Place a transparent elastic at the end of each section, bring the end in and out several times to twist it, and pull at the hair. Once done, twist the sections loosely and secure them around the base. Excellent for giving texture to one-process blonde or brown hair.

#18: Bubble Ponytail

This simple and trendy style is perfect for second or third-day hair. This method may seem intricate, but you can pull your hair into this style in minutes. It is very easy to achieve on curly and wavy hair; if you have straight hair, scrunch some sea salt into your hair to add texture and grip to your long locks.

Begin by gathering your hair into a regular pony. Secure the ponytail with an elastic band. Next, place another elastic an inch lower and tug the hair to the sides to create a bubble. Repeat this step down the length of your hair. By the way, the hair styled this way can be a perfect base for Halloween hairstyles – just spray the “buns” with an orange tint to imitate the pumpkins or place a spooky skull inside each bubble.

#19: Easy Bun with a U Pin

Minimalist buns for long hair look great and create a graceful, lovely look. The detail so many women appreciate about this technique is that you do not need any hairpins to secure the bun in place, and a large U pin is definitely harder to lose.

Advertisement Simply pull your hair into a low bun at the back and insert the U pin into the bun from the right side. Pull the bun to the sides a bit and tug at the hair at the top to make your low bun more voluminous, and you’re good to go!
