The sock bun has been a trend that is very popular, its easy, fast and makes you look fabulous. There is a lot of different ways in which you can achieve the sock bun and I have tried many ways and I finally found one that works great for me and hopefully it does for you as well.

Step 1. You will need a sock if your hair is long and thick use a long thick sock and if your hair is short then use a short and normal sock. Lay out your sock flat and cut off the toe part(about ¼). Roll your sock down into a doughnut shape.

Step 2 & 3. Brush your hair into a high ponytail if you have long hair and just in the middle if the length of your hair is short. Apply a polish serum to get rid of any flyaways and if you want a sleeker look apply a coin size of gel to your hair.

Step 4. Pull your hair up and pull it through the hole of the sock. Leave the sock on the tips of your hair but allow space for the ends to stick out of the sock.

Step 5. Tuck in the ends of your hair that are sticking into the bottom of your sock. This is when you want to cover the sock with your hair.

Step 6. Once all your ends have been tucked in start rolling the sock down. Make you sure to get a good grasp of your hair by pulling each side at the same time as you are rolling it down.

Step 7 – 10. Once you are done rolling your sock pin your bun down with bobby pins. One on each of the sides, if you feel like it needs to be more secure you can add more bobby pins.

Voila! This look is great for any occasion its not time consuming and looks amazing. You can wear it nice and sleek for any upcoming holiday parties or wear it in those rainy days and pile on your scarf.
