    I absolutely refused to stop thinking of what I can do until I could select "5-10"! I didn't count variations after the brainstorming but I still feel like there's gotta be something I'm forgetting. I honestly forget I know so many hairstyles and usually stick with 2 or 3 of them.

    Cinnabun, disk bun, lazy wrap bun, infinity bun, nautilus bun, braided buns, chinese bun w/ or w/o braiding, sock bun w/ variations such as braiding around the base, loop bun although I haven't really done that since middle school except to work out, and I just learned the Elling Woman the other night. I could technically do a vortex bun if I wasn't lazy about bobby pins and had long enough hair for it to be worth it aesthetically.

    Hmmm... I can do Lazy Wrap, Nautilus, Artemis, Hypnobun, Gibraltar, Shells' Everyday Knot bun, and sometimes the Cinnabun, though I don't much like that one on me. Also, I do braided versions of all of those except Hypnobun and Gibraltar. Huh, more than I thought, though I won't count the braided ones, so just 7.

    I have learnt the Gibraltar bun this evening, so I can add another to my list!

    I'm bun challenged. I can only do a cinnabun or a braided cinnabun.

    I don't know the names of the vast majority of buns I can do, so, because I'm a really interesting person with a very exciting life... I made and photographed them instead. I got to 25 (not including braided variations other than where the braid is an important part of the construction of the bun) and got bored.

    In theory, I know how to do may buns.
    But the ones I really do and I am comfortable with are the cinnamon, the vortex, the lazy wrap and the sock bun.

    I voted 5 - 10. I know how to do - lazy wrap bun, nautilus, cinnamon bun, rose bun, chinese bun, disc bun and the jamie leigh. I sort of know the fig. 8/infinity bun and spidermoms bun. I also know the braided version of the lwb and braided cinnabun but I didn't count those really, I also didn't count the good old looped ponytail bun or my mystery bun!

    ETA - In theory I know how to do a sock bun (Loepsies version) but in practice I can't seem to make it happen

    I was going to vote 15+, then read about the "comfortable" part and picked 10 - 15. There are many buns I can do that don't suit my hair particularly well, like lazy wrap, chinese bun, Celtic knot, inside out..etc. Hmm I probably should still have picked 15+. I've been here forever and invented a few myself. Though I've only posted one video.

    My DH can only do one bun, but I don't know if anyone else can do it. It's a knot bun using nothing to hold it in place. His can stay bunned for hours.
