The Undone Bun Hairstyle Tutorial

A simple and pretty hairstyle for the spring and summer is the undone bun, a casual yet romantic hair style that looks great with summer dresses and tank tops, and keeps you feeling cool. Read below for our simple, five step hair tutorial of this popular messy updo.

Hairstyle Tutorial: The Undone Bun (aka The Messy Updo)

1. Loosely pull all of your hair back into a low ponytail right at the nape of your neck or a little higher up.

2. Secure ponytail with an elastic (preferably one that is close to your hair color).

3. Twist your ponytail and wind around the base, forming a traditional but loose bun. If some tendrils or shorter pieces fall out or can’t be included, that’s ok! Leaving a few pieces out makes the look more casual and pretty.

4. Holding the bun in one hand, use the other hand to bobby pin pieces of hair twisted into the loose bun.

5. Spray bun sparingly with a light, flexible hair spray.

Tada… pretty and casual undone bun!

  • Oh that is so pretty!!

    This is how my hair used to end out 90% of the time, but I am on a side braid kick lately.

  • I love this look. Even though it’s messy it always looks so good!
