Ballerina Bun

The classic bun or has been around for forever. Ladies have taken this hairstyle to different heights, sides of the head, they've worn it messy and sleek. My favorite used to be the side chignon which comes from the French phrase “chignon du cou,” which means nape of the neck. LOVE the elegance that it can bring to any occasion. I usually wear my hair back since I am not great at doing down styles. It's usually in a bun or a pony tail. Well, I remember the first time I saw the ballerina bun. I had mixed reviews going on in my head about it. Sometimes I liked it but for the most part, if it had too much volume, not enough or was just a ball sitting atop someone's head, I just wasn't a fan. Then I realized this may be because I am SUCH a bow or ribbon enthusiast and THAT is what most of them were all missing. With that thought parading around in that same noggin of mine I made my own tutorial where, of course, we use a bow and make the ballerina bow sing. Enjoy!

I do!!!!! That will be one of the next tutorials =). I'm not a fan of perfect with the ballerina bun. That's the one I referred to as a ball just sitting atop the head. I'm excited to try it since I've only ever seen it!
