How To Achieve The Perfect Ballet Bun

Brush your hair back into a ponytail. Try to get your hair straight and even, using a water spray can help smooth things out and make your hair more manageable.
The best height is right on the crown of your head, so that you can just see the top of your ponytail poking up if you look in the mirror.
The tighter you can get your ponytail the better so use a good strong hair elastic!
Use a comb or brush to remove any bumps (a nit comb is really useful for this).
Now you can use a little hairspray or gel spray to keep any wispy bits back.
Start to wrap the ponytail around the hair elastic to form the bun shape.
Once you reach the end of your ponytail then tuck the end of your hair under the bun to stop the ends of your hair poking out.
Secure the bun with hair pins. Start with pins at 12 o’clock, 3 o'clock, 6 o'clock, and 9 o’clock ( if you imagine your bun was a clock face).
You can now place a bun/hair net over the bun. This keeps everything in place.
You can now add more pins to really secure your bun and if you like add a sparkly hair pin or a bow to really finish it off.
A final spritz of hair/gel spray and you’ll have the perfect bun!
