How to Create a Cute Low Bun Updo in Minutes - Easy TikTok Hack

Tools and materials:

• Hair elastic
• Hair tie
• Brush

1. Do a regular ponytail

So, for this low bun updo, start by doing a regular ponytail, as shown. 

2. Make a bun

Pull all of your hair through once and twice, on the third time, pull your hair, but not all the way through. You want to create a messy bun. 

You should have your ends hanging out as I do. 

3. Create the easy low bun updo

Now, pull your hair tie down by about an inch. 

Next, create an opening right above your hair tie, as if you’re going to be doing a topsy tail. 

Flip your bun, and the ends up through that hole you just created. 

The trick here is not to pull it all the way through; simply tuck it in, as shown. Make sure all the ends are tucked in, too. There should be no loose ends or strands sticking out. 

Pull the two sides from either end of the bun together. 

Now, grab your favorite hair tie and place it around the bun. Make sure to hold both sides while placing the hair tie in place. 

If you have any gaps in your bun, you can cover them with your hair. Placement is key! 

Also, if you have ends sticking up at the top, you can stick them back in. 

You can always pull and pinch some hair to give the low bun updo some texture or if you want a messier look, pull out more strands. If you want it to look chic and sleek, then add hair gel.
