    Default What is the name of this bun?

    Can someone tell me what the name of this bun is?
    Let me rephrase:

    You divide your hair into 2 sections. One section is the great majority of your hair. The other is about 1/10 of your hair. That smaller section is best done on the side of your head. You take the larger section and gather it into a ponytail. Then you tuck the ends of the ponytail under so you have a folder over ponytail. Then you use the smaller section you left out to wrap around the base of the folded ponytail, so that that smaller section is essentially acting like a ponytail holder. You tuck the end of the smaller section under the base of the smaller section to secure it, thus effectively tying your hair, with your hair.

    Thanks.

    I don't know what that should be called, but wow - what a thick head of hair you have! Little suggestion - next time put more light on your hair. This video is so dark that I could see no detail.

    I think it might be called the lazy wrap bun! I'm not 100% sure though.

    Thanks. I would, but there's no other light to put on it in my room.

    Thanks, but definitely not the lazy wrap bun. You don't divide the hair into two sections for that.

    Your accent almost sounds Ugandan. Very cute bun too.

    Hmm, it seems to require more texture than my hair has. My 2a hair brushes out to slow body waves (like, 2-4 waves from crown to tips) and I can't make this bun stay. Oh well. Maybe when my hair is longer and I can get the wrap hair to go around twice...

    It's a cute style, though! Looks good on you.

    folded ponytail bun? I do something similar by making a ponytail, then only pulling it halfway through the hair tie, then wrapping the ends around the ponytail and tucking them under the hair tie.
