Look at my croissant bun

My hair is too short, particularly as its tightly coiled, to do a figure 8 bun. So I tried to improvise by dividing my hair into 2 sections. Then I wrap one section on top in one direction and the other section on bottom in the opposite direction. But it never quite looks like a figure 8. It either looks like a hair blob:



Or it looks like a croissant.





I must be doing something wrong. I don't mind, though, because I think it's cute.

Looks good! I couldn't do that if my life depended on it! Like the hairstick too.

That looks great! I wish I could get my hair to hold that kind of shape *sigh*. Love the stick, too

I agree, it does look really nice!
