I guess I don't need to tell you all what an amazing resource and community this is, but in the few short weeks that I've been here, I have learned SO MUCH, and am so grateful to you all for sharing.
So here's evidence of one little thing I've managed to master--the Nautilus Bun. All are held with my one little hair stick, a Ketylo 6".
My first try, immediately after having watched Hypnotica's (whoot! thank you!) YouTube video twice. A little lopsided and without tail tucked well, but still, pretty darn happy with it!

My second try, in the car. Not so much.

Third try, today, got a kind of funny rotation, but I didn't mind, so I kept it and got lots of compliments.

You know, I WAS fairly happy with my length, but now there are MORE BUNS that I want to try, and I may just grow out some to be able to increase my options! :p

WOW. Those are some awesomely thick buns. Especially the second one, it really shows off both your length and thickness. Congrats on a successful 1st - 3rd try! ;)
Everything about this site inspires me to keep growing, lol. :D

very good for a first try! my first updos using hairsticks were a failure, lol!
I'm going to have to try this bun sometime.

Awesome! Keep up the good work. I wish my buns were that thick and lovely.
I love this site, and am able to do buns because of all the generosity of those who have written up instructions and made videos. Some my hair isn't long enough to do, but that just gives me more goals!

Beautiful! What wonderful hair -- those beautiful photos really encourage me to reach my own hair goal (if only I had enough hair to make them . . . GROW hair ;))
Congrats :)

Nice big bun! The Ketylo is great too.
My biggest "problem" with updos is that unless I do it everyday, I completely forget how to do the style, and have to find/watch the instructions again! :p

I love the nautilus bun since it is so darn secure. I wish mine looked half as neat and tidy as yours does, but as my hair type wouldn't agree to that, I'll make due. Two thumbs up!

Thank you all so much for the warm words!
Melikai, I am on a "Nautilus bun a day" regiment until it becomes second nature to me. I am one of those learners who has to keep things REALLY simple. ;)

That looks really great!
For some silly reason, the nautilus is one that I'm struggling with - sometimes I get it right, but more often than not I screw it up and it flops over soon as I stick the hairstick in. I can manage a ton of other buns, but this one just doesn't seem to want to be my friend. :rolleyes:
