25 Second Bun and Piggy Buns





These hairdos were taught to me by my friend Jess.  She does this on herself and her girls.  Both hairdos include this 25 second bun.  If you don't get how to do it with the first description, look at the Piggies description and it will be more clear to you. 
1. 25 Second Bun

Her daughter has straight, slick hair and it does not require wetting or spraying.   I am kind of jealous.
Brush hair and pull back into a low ponytail.




Wrap the ponytail until you get to the last wrap.



 on the last wrap pinch the pony like you are about to pull through, but don't. 

 pinch fingers and plant against the head. 
 Twist hair to the right and wrap it around.
 Because your fingers are tied up, just throw it over and re-twist.
 Go until two or three inches of hair are left.  Slide that strand between your two fingers and pull through half way to hide the raw ends.
The hair band will show and needs to be scooted up and to the left with the hair band ending up  in the middle of the bun. 

The hair band will show.





2.  Piggy Buns (Affectionately called Princess Leah)
Begin with a middle part all the way down.

Make the pigtail high.

When you get to the last wrap,
pull almost through.  Hold it here with your finger tips touching her head.
twist the pigtail and throw it over to the right.
Re-twist and keep wrapping it around.

When you get to the last 3 or 4 inches, put it between your fingers.
Pinch it.  Then pull it half way through. 

Move the band to the left and up until it looks like this.
Repeat on the right.
Jess is ambidextrous, so you might want to do the right side with the same hand that you did the left.



The main thing is this last part.  Pull the last piece half way through.
Move the band up and left. 
These piggies stay in really well.
