This Hairdo starts out with a high pony tail.
Divide the ponytail in half top and bottom.
Put your whole hand around the divided pieces and let them hang over your hand. If you are right handed, this part should be done with your left hand.
Take your other hand and wrap it around your bun and pinch.
Pull your first hand out.
If you want the bun to be fuller then pull the bun up.
Put the new hair band around the bun and make sure that it is below the existing hair band.
Wrap once.
If your child has medium long hair, this may be the end. Go ahead and finish with the hair band until the last wrap. Take the hanging hair and pull it around to cover the hair band. do the last wrap to secure that last piece. Jump down to the bun part.
If your child has long hair then continue on. This is the hard part.
Place the pointer finger and thumb around the bun while holding the hair band.
Loop the remaining hair over the second finger and secure it with your third finger.
For really long hair, you may add one more loop.
Hold it with your pinky finger.
Wrap with hair band.
There should be a piece left, about 4 inches. Pull that around to cover the hair band.
Then wrap the hair band one last time.
Pull the bun out how you like it. This is an important step.
There is usually one part that is sticking up, so pin that part in place, if you like.
If you want the whole bun to be more secure, feel free to add more bobby pins.
I personally like it left floppy just for a comfortable, fun daytime hairdo.
