I love the bun. It does look like an apricot!

Please, oh please, tell us how you accomplished it!

Tawnylioness...you are a lifesaver for starting this thread! I've been stuck in my own "oh no, here comes another shed" funk for the past few days. I have also dumped untold amounts of money on new hair toys that I can't use because my hair is too thin.

This thread is just what the doctor ordered for me. Thank you.

Here you can see the end of my shed-ravaged braid last year. And here is the puny single braid itself, kinda looks like one of your double braids!

I might have the courage now to go play around with those new hair sticks and see what other puniness I can come up with!

Oh...and your twin braids look adorable.

Ms bubbles, looking at your avatar piccie your hair is beautiful! im sorry to hear about your shedding, myself have had two kids in the last 3 years, so my hair is shedding, growing, shedding again and i diddnt have much to start of with :P

hopefully we can get inspired with how to put up our hair, coz i am sick of a scrunchy ponytail :P

It might help my attitude to be able to see perfectly lovely updos on people with thinner hair. I just get so down seeing all those youtube vids of people with twenty times more hair than me.

I imagine all those pregnancy and post-pregnancy hormones kept your hair follicles busy!

I know what you mean about the youtube videos. I just watched the ones for Ketylo sticks and that lady has LOVELY hair, looks like thigh length. Not sure if its the length or the thickness that caught my breath!

I am trying to focus on hair and scalp health, and thickness or lack thereof is just something I will have to contend with. Still going to grow to BSL and maybe waist. Right now I'm not even at APL, so it's a long way from any goal.

im also terrible at updos, im quite uncoordinated

lately my bun of choice....well...but of not much choice due to my hair is a nautilus bun

it doesnt look toooo tiny and actually holds through the day, ill try take a pic later after i wash my hair for the umpteenth time to try to counter the effects cassia had on my a couple days ago... :P

Oops, I didn't mean to imply that the name of the updo was "apricot bun", that is just how I describe all my updos because they tend to come out the same size and shape as an apricot. This particular updo is a Neoma Knot which is a wonderful updo for slippery straight hair.
