Respect & Positive Attitudes

A touch of emerald green is always encouraged!
How to Make a Ballet Bun :)
1. Brush hair until it is smooth and tangle free. Gather all hair into a ponytail and secure it with an elastic. Height is up to you.
2. Twist the ponytail tightly, and coil it around the elastic, securing with bobby/hair pins. Tuck the end of the ponytail under the rest of the bun. Be sure to use enough pins!
3. Wrap a hairnet over the bun. Secure with some more bobby/hair pins, if needed.
4. Mist with hairspary, if needed.
5. For an Emerald ballet bun - add a touch of green!
