I don't know what took me so long - I LOVE the sock bun! My hair is probably 1.5 - 2 inches from APL, and I'll probably be rocking this style until then!

Please forgive grainy cell phone quality.

Looks awesome on you! You have a nice round hairline, ideal for wearing buns. Consider yourself lucky! ;)

Thats a lovely example of the perfect sock bun, your bun is huge, imagine how big thats gonna be at even longer lengths!

Hey that looks great! I love sock buns, too. Can't wait until I can do one, although I think mine might be kinda itty bitty lol. Yours looks fantastic:)

Looks lovely! And I agree with the comment about you being fortunate to have the nice hairline that you do.

I also want to add my experience.
I have very fine hair and it's almost to apl, I tried using one of my socks but I don't have enough hair for it to cover the entire sock and it isn't long enough to go around very much so I took two of my kids socks and made two smaller buns, pretty much just in the middle of my head... it still doesn't cover the whole sock but i'm sure if I were to just use one sock it would look fine. Just a little tip for those of us who have fine and apl length hair.
