Tossing your hair into a quick bun is the easiest and neatest way to wear your hair if you have not maintained it or styled it in a while.
Hair buns are also great when you have been postponing washing your hair and want to conceal your messy or greasy hair.
Buns can also be an elegant hairstyle for special occasions and events which require you to dress up and show off.
These three simple hair bun hacks are perfect for beginners and will help you get your desired hair bun.
Messy buns are the cutest hair buns to rock when you do not have much time to style your hair.
Karla Vega Kazemi has shared her hack on how to achieve a perfect messy hair bun in less than a minute.
In the video, she starts off by putting her hair into a hair tie. She then takes her hand and pokes it through the hair tie, then grabs her hair and flips it forward twice.
She then secures the hair she has flipped and twirled into the first loop she made with the hair tie with the other hand, before fluffing her hair into her desired messy bun look.
She finishes off the look by tying down any loose hair with bobby pins around her head.

The Hairstyles TikTok page has shared a hack on how to easily and quickly transform your ponytail into a bun.
In the video, they start off with a perfectly tied high ponytail. They then take the hair tie and pull out a fair length of the ponytail before using the hair tie to tie another knot.
They then take the end part of the ponytail and wrap it around the other part of the ponytail to create a round bun.
Once that is done, they make use of bobby pins to tie down any loose hair.

Valentia has shared her hack on how she achieves the perfect bun using two scrunchies.
She begins her tutorial by tying a high ponytail making use of both scrunchies. She then spreads her hair around the ponytail and scrunchies to ensure that they are fully covered, before using a black hair tie to tie the hair into place.
Shen then twists the rest of her hair, which is still in a ponytail, and then wraps it around her bun once she is done.
She finishes off the look by securing the hair with bobby pins.
