So I was messing with my hair today trying to do an infinity bun and I think I figured out a "new" style (is it new?) that would work well for BSL hair!

Basically, I just twisted my hair as if I were doing a cinnabun off to the side on my head, and then, holding the ends tightly in one hand, took the first loop I had just made and turned it over, pressing it down across the head horizontally. The ends that stick out I pinned down with a bobby pin. It looks kind of like a "half-infinity" bun.

Is this new? If so, yay! :cheese:

If not, woot! Still a great bun!:cheese:

I really like how that looks. Don't know if it would work since my hair is waist length though. Thumbs up to ya!!!

I should probably add that it's worth an attempt at all lengths, varying the "horizontal length" of the loop and with different thicknesses will probably be possible anywhere between APL and waist.

that's the way I have always done an infinity or a figure eight. I didn't know there were other ways :lol: but it looks like an infinity, so congrats!

Oh! I've been doing the same thing the past couple weeks, except vertically, so it's more of a half-figure-8. I can just barely manage it with my past-shoulder-but-not-yet-APL hair, and only then on days when I don't have much slip.
