I love the moon fork so much! I really want one for myself.

My hair is BSL (26 inch) right now and not able to do the stick buns I did last year with another inch or so of length. I can’t for the life of me figure out how to link the videos from my ipad

Edit:
I figured it out, these are the videos I used to learn the disk bun:

I’m sure most of you lovely long hair’s know how to do this already! Personally i have only been using this for the last 2 weeks, it holds well for me all day of basic activities like grocery shopping and walking around all day.

Need to try this one out!

I feel it depends on the bun for me! At APL between BSL it hurt so much to do buns.

Could I ask how you take care of your hair these days?

Hehe it is so much fun! I'm pretty low key I guess, I WWC once a week and rotate 3 hair masks every 2 weeks or so. I wear it up MOST of the week and always sleep with it in a plait on my satin pillowcase. :>

Estrid, your bun looks great, love the stick.

Does anyone know if this is an existing bun and what the name is? I feel as if it should exist already...

Are you left handed? I (am right handed and ) do one that looks like this and is a no name. My bigger loop ends up on the right, not the left, like yours.

Gather hair into a ponytail (no tie or elastic). Hold with right hand and with put left hand under the pony. With right hand make one loop under and around the left hand. With right hand loosely wrap the rest of hair around the base of the pony. With right hand stretch the original loop and pull down on the right side. Stick a fork through it. I usually stick mine from the top down, diagonally.

This holds well and make my not so thick hair in to a respectable bun.

This is a Nessa bun. One of my GOTO's

I'm right handed and that is not how I made the bun

It is! Thank you. Except, I pull the first loop down to the side instead of over the second loop and it becomes an asymmetrical bun. It looks very much like Tatsu's bun, only reversed.

Tatsu, how did you do that?

I also pull the first loop to the side like this
