The Sock Bun

So I've been hearing about a hair comeback called the "sock bun". So I did a bit of research into what exactly a sock bun is. Now don't get your hopes up, it's literally a bun around a sock. 
However I will admit it is easier than using a donut and gives the same, if not better effect. It took me 10 minutes to do, that includes making the sock ring itself and taking pictures whilst doing it, so it should take you 5 minutes to complete.

So here's a step by step guide to The Sock Bun:

1. Grab a sock and cut the ball end of the sock off

2. Roll the sock up into a ring

3. Tie hair up in pony tail, style it how you wish the bun to appear (high, low, sleek, messy, lots of volume etc.) 

4. Place hair through sock and push down to the hair band. Place all hair so it surrounds the sock

5. Wrap hair around sock 

 6. Secure with hair pins when desired look is achieved

 Final Result
