The Bow! 10/4/14

Hey guys I discovered this hairstyle about a year ago and I really like it. I rarely do it because it takes so many bobby pins and I usually have to do it several times I am following this tutorial I found:

 

How to create a bow bun! 

Step One: create a "slinky bun" that stands up on its own! So fabulous!

Next take hair and for me I wrap it around the base and then back over the bun to make the "knot" in the middle.

  

This is how the first couple of buns turned out, not bad, but not what I wanted. 

 

A side view. I didn't under stand what in the world was going on. It was driving me absolutely crazy.  I started thinking maybe my hair has just gotten too long for this hair style (SAD DAY!!). Then I did some googling and saw that some people made the "end" of the pony come out front and did it that way.

Looking fabulous, maybe I should just leave it this way?

TADAA!! Bow! Still not perfect, but it was the best looking one yet and I was happy to call it "done".
To be honest I do think my hair is a bit too long for this style in one bow. And I saw a different tutorial that I would like to try and it would give me the oportunity to stretch my "teasing" skills. I hope you guys have a great Weekend. Stay safe and lovely
