How to Have a Full Bun or Braid

Everyone wants a strong, full bun or braid and certainly nothing that looks wimpy . Unfortunately that’s not always possible with only your natural hair since there are limitations. When your stylist suggests extensions you wince at the thought of navigating all those complicated clips. Fortunately for you there is an easier way… Easy Updo Extensions.

A brilliant tool designed by a woman with fine hair who wanted to have a full bun designed them out of her own necessity. The best thing is that since she has no professional training it was designed with the average consumer in mind. You simply tie the hair elastic around a gathering of hair (like a ponytail) and continue to style from there. As a stylist I love that you have all the options of styles available to you: bun, space buns, rope braid, rope braid bun, 3-strand braid, loop braid, chunky fishtail and more. The possibilities are really endless. You just wrap your own hair around the extension int he direction it’s fibers are twisting an proceed as normal.

Each strand is multi-dimensional and since you can use various strands per loop it makes blending even easier. Colors include platinum, light blonde, blonde, light brown, brown and black. There are also a few mermaid colors. How to choose your color? Base it more so upon your ends (your ponytail) vs your roots.

They can even be attached to very short hair… you only need 4 inches! Who would have thought someone with 4" inches could end up with a top knot. Well, you can! They are easily styled with bobby pins, elastics etc with no need for heat since they are a synthetic blend. They’re so easy that I especially love using them when I travel or I’m busy and I just don’t want to have to fight with my own hair. And for extra bragging points if that’s your thing they are used by stylist Jeri Lynn Stephens on contestants of NBC The Voice. A bit of a testament to their quality, right?!

Right now everyone is chillin with a lot of extra downtime so why not learn a new look. You can emerge from this thing like the beautiful butterfly you are with a dope new look.
