1. Quick and easy loop bun
Start with a ponytail secured with a hair tie. Lift up your hair tie slightly and create a small loop using your pointer finger and thumb.
Wrap the ponytail around your pointer finger and thumb.
Pull the ponytail through the loop you just created. Adjust by stretching the top and bottom parts of the bun.
Let any extra hair hang out naturally for a relaxed look.
2. Simple updo bun
Pull your hair through a hair tie multiple times until it feels secure.
On the last loop, stop halfway to create a small bun.
Split the loose ends into two sections and twist them around your fingers.
Criss-cross the twisted ends at the top of the bun.
Then, tuck them underneath the bun.
Secure with bobby pins, ensuring the ridge side of the bobby pin is down for a better hold.
Gently pinch and pull at the top to create added texture.
3. Knotted ponytail
Part your hair into two small ponytails at the top of your head.
Cross the two ponytails like you are tying a shoelace to make an "X." Pull one section through and secure it.
Repeat the process in the back with another knot.
If more hair is hanging out, tie another knot or secure it with a bobby pin.
Adjust any loose parts with a comb for a neat look.
Okay, so that one took me 66 seconds, but still pretty quick!
4. Twisted half-up bun
Gather the top half of your hair and secure it with a clear elastic.
On the last loop, stop halfway to create a small bun.
Split the loose ends into two sections. Create a small opening above the bun. Push the bun up and through the opening to create a twist effect.
Stretch and adjust for the desired look, adding accessories if desired.
5. Full updo variation
Follow the same steps as the twisted half-up bun, but include all of your hair. If you have loose ends, use a claw clip to tuck them under the bun. Adjust by pinching and pulling for volume.
6. Knotted ponytail hairstyle
Start by putting all your hair into a ponytail and making a little bun with the last pull through the hair elastic.
Take the hair from under the bar and just wrap it around itself so it forms another bun.
Push the whole double-bun up a bit and place your claw clip at the base of the bun.
7. Alternative knotted ponytail
Make a regular ponytail, then take a small section from the bottom of your ponytail and split it in two.
Tie the two sections into a knot at the top of the ponytail.
Flip the ponytail up, bring the loose hair from the two sections under your ponytail and secure them with a clear hair elastic.
Drop your pony tail down, and now split that underneath the ponytail into two sections, bring it up and knot it as you did before.
Continue knotting and securing until you reach the desired look. Secure with bobby pins if needed, and adjust by pinching and pulling for volume.
