I love this look and I finally found a tutorial that might work for me. I'm 65 years old and haven't had long hair since my 20's. Yes, I wore it short that many years. It's been long for about 5 years now and this looks so easy. Than you so much!!! 🙂
Thank you for sharing. I am 67, going grey, artsy and young at heart. I love this look. I have finer texture hair. I am happy you said this style worked on your friend.
I'm 33 going grey with fine coarse hair, it has always been a struggle to do a messy bun, they usually come out perfect like a ballerina and that's not what I want
sorry to be so offtopic but does anyone know a tool to get back into an Instagram account..? I somehow forgot my account password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.
You are an absolute ROCKSTAR for sharing this tutorial! I've been struggling with a thousand hairpins and sock bun gadgets for YEARS and it never looks right - or it falls apart in a few hours. I've got just 2 hairbands in my hair today and my messy bun is perfect. Finally, at the age of 48 I've figured it out, thanks to you. Amazing work. xox
I have literally watched 20 messy buns video and this is the ONLY one that actually works for me.... now all my friends are jealous of the way I do my buns because of this!! thank you so much!! this is such a life saver and a new way to change up my hair for school ❤️
Thank you so much for teaching me how to do the messy bun! My 12 year old loves it! All the girls at school told her how pretty her hair looked! I loved that it's quick and easy!
I cannot tell you how many messy bun tutorials and videos I have watched! Yet I still rarely get one right, and even then it's usually by accident, and therefore not repeatable. But I tried this today, and it not only worked, it worked the first time, with no frustration! I can't thank you enough! Also, your makeup looks amazing. I'd be interested in a tutorial on this look, and the products and colors you used.
omg I tried this and it actually worked, I thought the bun was just going to look like a big mop on my head lol! I had to do it twice before I got the shape I wanted but it was super quick and simple, usually buns don't suit me at all but using this method changed my mind. Thanks a lot this was so helpful xxx
Yay! Finally a messy bun I can master.I just wish I would have found this before I chopped my long hair all off.I can just barely get it all up and into a bun now but this works! Thanks I Love It!
This is the best messy bun; the instructions are clear and the end result is fabulous. I've attempted many and this is the first one that worked and looked good. Thank you.
Ok, so I have watched a million (lol exaggeration) messy bun tutorials but, this was the best and easiest I have seen! Thank you‼️ After second try I mastered it!
Oh that is so good to hear!! I'm glad that it has helped you! I know I struggled, I always had a ballerina bun because I could never make anything else work!
Thanks! It looks a little different with layers, but still the best messy bun I've tried. I'm 60, and sometimes a bun makes me look 'classic old lady'... but not this one! You also inspired me to go from reddish brown to ashy with blonde panels.
Thanks Mikaela. I'm 77 and just tried this. I'm going to like it after I practice a little more and get extra lift and volume for my thin hair. It is an answer to what I was looking for.
My daughter does her messy bun and it comes out amazing every time! I do mine and look like I've slept under a rock for three years...lol Finally, someone with long hair did a messy bun tutorial!!! Thank you! 💞
Thank you .... I did your messy bun today and I went out to the store and I got a compliment in passing... a lady said ‘great hair’. So thank you for sharing!
You've changed my life. Messy bun is so easy for me now! And I have thin, fine, stick straight hair. It looks amazing with just a bit of texturizing spray and dry shampoo for fluffiness & volume!
Finally! A messy bun tutorial that doesn’t look like I have a fan bun sitting on top of my head! I had to adapt it a little for my liking because I can’t stand my hair feeling loose but the concept was so easy. Thank you!
I never put my bangs out of my face because I don't like the way I look without them. I was just messing around when I tried this and I love it. I feel comfortable putting my bangs up and it doesn't look awkward or weird. Thank you!
Oh my god thank god for you ❤️ My hair is so thick and heavy that I have tried so many other videos and they give me nothing but arm ache and a fresh out the garbage bin look 😂 I. Love. This....! So easy and quick and no arm ache at the end of it! Thankyou!!!
This video has literally changed my life! No Joke! I have never been able to do a messy bun and I just tried this and I love it!!! Thank you so much💜💜💜💜
Out of the million videos I watched for bun this one is the best and easiest and the most doable. I tried and it was successful. So had to come back to comment
Hey Mikaela! I love how you broke this down. I describe it as my new fool proof messy bun. I'll be featuring your style on my blog in a couple weeks! :)
i must be pretty awesome then cause I have always been able to do a perfect messy bun since I was like 9 years old. and I'm 29. never had to watch tutorials to learn prior. just something i tried once and got it the 1st time! love the messy bun!
I have been trying to do a messy bun FOREVER and none of the videos help,But this video is SO helpful. It only takes a couple of minutes and I am happy with the results. TYSM!!!
I hate when I watch my friend throw their hair into a bun in 2.3 seconds and it looks awesome. But I spent an hour on my bun and I end up looking like a potato.
Oh my goodness!! Thank you, thank you! I have 2 girls 13 and 3 , one with curly and one with straight hair. This helps me SO much!! They both like messy buns, this is the best way and easiest. 😍
There's no way I could come close to your beautiful blonde hair, but I do think it got enough of this updo style to go outta the house w it! Thank u!!!
Thank you thank you thank you!I have gotten so frustrated watching messy bun videos. I can never do them. I am so glad I watched your video. I was actually able to do it! I have thin hair but it worked perfectly. I put my hair in a ponytail first then I did what you did, so I used two hair ties.
I tried this before school this morning and for the first time in my life I DID A GOOD MESSY BUN. I had so many compliments thank you so much! It was sooo easy
I just found this video and subscribed to your channel. I know you prob have had a lot of people tell you this but thank you so much for posting this video! I have long and very thick hair and thought I was never going to be able to get my hair in a messy bun again! I have been searching and trying different things for over a year and could not get any to work with my thick hair. But your technique has worked for me and I am so happy I now have a messy bun to go to! Thanks again, love your channel!!
Thank you so much! I have been looking at many messy bun tutorials and every single one has the same process, but this has very clear instructions & is different, thanks!
kaila powell I have thin hair as well. I have found that I need to backcomb my hair in about 2-3 layers on sides and top for ample volume and use tinted dry shampoo before backcombing and using hairspray on each layer. Smooth out the layers with a bristle brush to keep the volume and make them cleaner-looking. I hope that helps you :)
kaila powell Using a texturizing spray/dry shampoo beforehand will help to keep your hair from sliding all over :). Pull and fluff out to make it look thicker or to cover any areas that show your scalp. :)
I was able to follow your technique with damp hair, and it turned out great. Way better than what I was calling a messy bun. P.S. I have really thin hair and it totally worked wonders. :)
Another thing is pull the pieces tucked in first. And also make sure you get al Bobby pins out first, and then just be careful of the mop when pulling out
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! Mikaela, like you I have struggled for years trying to do a messy bun that I consider looks cool. I finally found you and your messy bun works for me and my hair. You're Awesome, thanks so much for sharing :)
I Love ❤ This Messy Bun look !!! My Hair is Very Long so I've been trying. Love ❤ ur Messy Bun and Ur Make up looks Great 👍 Thank you so much for this Video!!!
This is the best! I could never do the messy bun because I have thin hair and always had to resort to using a donut to get any sort of fullness. This is now my go to and it's easy, lightweight .. and can wear it the whole day. Thank you!!!!

I've done my hair like this 2-3 times since stumbling upon this video. I LOVE it, so easy and fail proof! Thanks so much for this idea.
Fail proof? I guess I did the impossible (not trying to be sarcastic or mean) but I failed at this so hard. :/
My daughter does her messy bun and it comes out amazing every time! I do mine and look like I've slept under a rock for three years...lol
Finally, someone with long hair did a messy bun tutorial!!! Thank you! 💞
LOVE THIS -- sometimes I wish I had lighter hair though bc my hair is so dark it doesn't have as much dimension in braided/bun hairstyles :(
Thank you .... I did your messy bun today and I went out to the store and I got a compliment in passing... a lady said ‘great hair’. So thank you for sharing!

Thank you so much! I have been looking at many messy bun tutorials and every single one has the same process, but this has very clear instructions & is different, thanks!
how can i do this with super thin hair? and my hair is fine so its hard t get perfect and volumized.
kaila powell I have thin hair as well. I have found that I need to backcomb my hair in about 2-3 layers on sides and top for ample volume and use tinted dry shampoo before backcombing and using hairspray on each layer. Smooth out the layers with a bristle brush to keep the volume and make them cleaner-looking. I hope that helps you :)
kaila powell Using a texturizing spray/dry shampoo beforehand will help to keep your hair from sliding all over :). Pull and fluff out to make it look thicker or to cover any areas that show your scalp. :)
Aww finally a messy hair tutorial I can do......thanks you are the best.....👍👍👍
you look like a 90s supermodel 🤗
Thomas Müller she does!
I was able to follow your technique with damp hair, and it turned out great. Way better than what I was calling a messy bun. P.S. I have really thin hair and it totally worked wonders. :)
how easy is it for you to take your hair out of all that
Haha depends on how many days I wore it in a bun! Hahaha.
But you just gotta pull on the pieces that were tucked in first.
jw because I have thick hair as well and it is a pain to take out :(
Another thing is pull the pieces tucked in first. And also make sure you get al Bobby pins out first, and then just be careful of the mop when pulling out
my hair is curly and about shoulder length when i do the first part the bun just falls flat. any tips to get it fluffy?
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!
Mikaela, like you I have struggled for years trying to do a messy bun that I consider looks cool. I finally found you and your messy bun works for me and my hair. You're Awesome, thanks so much for sharing :)
omg omg it actually works
I Love ❤ This Messy Bun look !!! My Hair is Very Long so I've been trying. Love ❤ ur Messy Bun and Ur Make up looks Great 👍 Thank you so much for this Video!!!
This is the Perfect messy bun but I'm Too dumb for that 🙄😂
No you not.
One second, your hair is absolutely gorgeous.
By the way, you have freakin fit arms! Keep it up :)
One of the best buns I have ever seen
I can't get it to work my hair goes all knotty and looks absolutely horrible
ashlyn mohr same
i just tried this rn and i swear to god It worked from the first trial and it looks so prettyyyyy thank you so much you're awesome xx
i still suck at it 😬
This is the best! I could never do the messy bun because I have thin hair and always had to resort to using a donut to get any sort of fullness. This is now my go to and it's easy, lightweight .. and can wear it the whole day. Thank you!!!!
i swear my hair can't even do the simplest things and it drives me up the wall
When I was in the military they taught us how to do something very similar for a quick bun that holds all day. It's done much neater of course, but it's essentially the same idea of creating the bun in the center and then tucking all the loose ends around. It was probably the most popular among trainees in BMT along with the sock bun.
Omg. How the fuck does this happen? Its legit impossible!💩😠
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I have struggled with the messy bun for years. Thanks to you and your tutorial, it works first time about 90% of the time.
YAY! That is so great:) I totally understand the feeling. I really envied my friends and their ability to do messy buns until I found this way of doing it!
"Is less than 5 mins"
Me:the vid is 5:02 BOI
literally the best messy bun tutorial. I get so many compliments:)
Okay you are Cher from Clueless oh my god 😭
