Hello,
So I watched Kill Bill 1 and 2 for the first time today. I was fascinated by Pai Mei's hair and was wondering how to achieve it? My hair is not nearly long enough yet.

Well, stop trimming your eyebrows for one… -snicker-

:rockerdud I love this! Ok, actually, I have done this on accident in the past, and for the sake of science, I just tried it again and it worked...
It doesn't look half as cool on me as it does on him though.
Start by acting like you're making a lazy wrap on top of your head. Wrap around 2 fingers (or maybe 1? Depends on your hair thickness probably) Stick a hairstick in the base like he has his. Fan the loop out.
I wonder if a hair elastic when making the initial ponytail would be a good idea to help anchor it and give it that height.
He's so mean, but that hair is so cute I can't stand it...

MsPharaohMoan - I don't trim my eyebrows but I've never been able to reach that level of awesomeness :') I guess it may come with age :P

I was thinking lazy wrap bun as well - then just work your fingers out, spread the "fan" a little and bobs yur uncle!

schnibbles - Thank you for the advice :) I think I get what you mean. I'll have to give it a go next time I'm feeling adventurous :).
gustavonut - That beard flick is epic :D. Like with the eyebrows, if only :P

He's an amazing actor. Like my mom always says, if an actor can make you hate them then they are really good at acting!

gustavonut - He is a good actor. He was easy to hate but at the same time kind of funny. And I fear you may be right, my dreams of bushy eyebrows are dashed :'D

It's a lazy wrap, I used one finger to wrap the hair around. Had to use 2 sticks to get it to stay. His hair is so much more fine/silken than mine is. Also, I think mine is much thicker than his so that's why it looks more bulbous. LOL
Fun, though...

That "bun" is made by making a ponytail, and by --on the last pass-through-- not pulling the hair completely through the loop of your elastic. If that makes sense. Your hair can be quite short for this still, that's (perhaps) the beauty of it.

That beard flick made the character!!
I adore QT and his films and the KB trio are my faves. I think my husband could rock this look. He has the eyebrows for it!
