Low bun hairstyles can be made in a variety of ways, from a simple twisted bun to a loose and messy one. You can also do a braided bun for a little variation. The low bun hairstyle means the bun should lie at or just above the nape of the neck, making it best for medium length or long hair. While the bun is a low maintenance hairstyle, you can add a pop of color and elegance by tucking a single flower into the bun. Use a large blossom flower with a single layer of petals for the best look.

Gather your hair together at the nape of your neck and secure in a ponytail with the clear hair band. You can center the ponytail just above your neck if you prefer.

2

Twist your hair around itself to form the shape of a bun. You can twist it tightly or loosely depending on the look you want. Another variation is to braid the ponytail first before twisting it into the bun. The braided bun is perfect for long hair as it is easier to pin.

3

Use hair pins to secure the bun. Add enough pins to be certain that the bun won't come loose. Use extra pins if you will be moving around quite a bit for added security.

4

Spray the bun with hair spray to hold the hair in place. Spritz lightly so your hair doesn't look stiff.

5

Cut a flower so the stem is about 1 1/2 to 2 inches long. Tuck the stem into the bun so the flower is displayed at the top or side of the bun depending on your preference. Smooth any stray hairs and you're ready to show off your new hairstyle.

Tips & Warnings

Use smaller flowers to create a wreath around the bun for a special occasion hair style.
