We are often very busy on weekdays and are carried away by socializing on weekends. We want to look radiant at all times. But sometimes we can't afford to spend much time on styling. Sometimes it's hard to keep our hair dry when we let it down. At this time, bun styles are the perfect hairstyle to incorporate into your beauty routine.

Or perhaps, many of us have picked up a fashion magazine, flipped through the pages, and paused at an eye-catching updo. Sometimes, a hairstyle in a magazine can spark the idea of trying to recreate the look at home.

You might wonder if this is possible with short hair. The answer is yes! Even with short hair, a hair topper or hair wig allows you to create a stylish bun effortlessly. In this blog, we'll show you how to create a bun for short hair.

Make the perfect low messy bun for your hair using the steps below.

Make a Ponytail

Firstly, gather all your hair at the nape of your neck, and tie it tight and secure in a low pony. No matter how short your hair is, this is definitely going to work as long as your hair can make a ponytail when gathered at the nape.

If you want to add a bit of spice, or you're making your bun for a special occasion, you can choose to gather your hair to the left or to the right.

Tease the Ponytail

If you don't want a messy bun, just a low bun, you can skip this step. If you do want the messy look, use a comb to gently tease your ponytail while holding it out. This will make your bun "messy" as well as add volume to it.

Pin Your Hair

Take a little section of hair from your pony and curl it under the bun elastic. Secure the ends that won't stay using a bobby pin. Keep picking little sections of your pony and pinning them under until you have pinned all your hair and you have a messy bun. Then make sure all the ends are secured tight.

Keep in Place

Spritz some hairspray onto your new bun and spray the rest of your hair to keep your hair in place.

The steps below will illuminate how you can make a high Ballerina-Style bun on your hair.

Make a Ponytail

Firstly, make a high ponytail by pulling your hair over your head with a comb. If your hair is long enough to be gathered into a high pony then do it, if not then you can choose to go a little lower.
When you have gathered your hair, tightly secure it with a hair tie to make sure your hair doesn't fall out.

Tease the Ponytail

Next, add some volume and texture to your bun by teasing your ponytail slightly with a comb.
Pick up one section of your ponytail and hold it out straight, then backcomb it gently towards your head. Keep repeating this step until your whole ponytail has been teased.

Divide the Ponytail

Divide your ponytail into two equal sections. Make sure both sides are equal, with the same amount of hair.

Twist and Pin

Now twist one section of the hair around the ponytail and tuck it underneath the ponytail base, making it curve round resembling a crescent moon. Use several bobby pins to pin the ends under. This will reveal the first part of your bun shape.

Now twist the other section of the hair this time up and over the ponytail and then tuck in the ends. Use several bobby pins to secure and keep them in place.

Tuck in And Spray

Use a mirror to check for loose ends, and if you find any, tuck them in. If you find it necessary to use extra bobby pins, go ahead and use them. Hairspray your new bun and other parts of your hair to avoid loosening.

Prep Your Hair

Make your hair wet and glossy by applying a mousse or gel, which will also help to keep your hair together. Make sure the gel or mousse is evenly distributed by applying it from the roots to the ends of your hair.

Gather Your Hair

Slightly comb your hair to make it appear smooth. Gather your hair just at the nape of your neck or a little higher, depending on where you want your bun.

Hold and Secure

Holding your ponytail up straight, fold it in half, and cinch it to form a small-looped bun. Use the second ponytail to secure your bun. This will leave the ends of your bun sticking out close to the nape of your neck.

Spray to Hold

Hairspray your bun as well as the remaining parts of your hair to keep it in place.
