Hi Beauties,
Mary Helen shares her favorite technique to style braided ballerina bun with a few twists on how to accessorize it. This is a romantic hairstyle lasts all day from ballet class to your evening out!
You'll need: a brush, a spray water bottle, your favorite hairspray, 1 large hair tie for the pony tail, 2 small elastics, bobby pins. BONUS: use a handheld mirror to help you style your bun!
Base: You need to start with a great pony tail that you really love! Split the pony tail into 2 sections to create 2 tight braids.
Products: A small spray bottle of water and a hairspray to tame fly-away's will help you achieve a sleek, clean braid.
BONUS! Add accessories to personalize your braided bun! Braid a ribbon into your bun or even tie around your bun, place pre-made hair clips, or your favorite flowers!

XOXO,

This was great Mary Helen. My hair is thick and as long as yours is. I can't wait to try this bun. I know what you mean about tangles! The longer the hair, the more tangles!!
