Sock Bun Tutorial

I'm hereby announcing my candidacy to become president of the Sock Bun Fan Club! 

Enjoy my campaign video (aka: Sock Bun Tutorial) 

Sock Bun Necessities:

• A super tight ponytail holder (I find that the ones they make for runners with the rubber lining work best)
• Bobby pins matching your hair color
• A sock that you hate / will never use again (the size depends on the amount of hair you have. To put in it perspective, I use a pretty thick hiking sock, but my sister with thinner / shorter hair can get away with using an ankle sock)
• Teasing comb
• Minimal hold hairspray (my favorite is Aveda's Air Control)

And just in case you happen to be voting in the sock bun presidential election, I'm running on the following platforms:

No Showering = No problem: The longer you go without showering (your hair), the better your sock bun looks. 

Big Hair? Don't Care: The frizzier the better! It's a proven fact that the bigger and frizzier your hair is the better your sock bun will turn out AND hold up throughout the day.  

Hair Spray is King Queen: Since I've changed my stance on dry shampoo (I no longer use it), I have focused all my aerosol attentions to minimal hold hairspray. Spray before teasing your roots for maximum volume

Save the Environment: Go green and lower your electric bill by never using a blowdryer or straightner again! Sock Buns for everyone!

My very first sock bun.
