Braided Bubble Bun Tutorial, Dance Hairstyles

With the 2014 Winter Olympics right around the corner, we thought this braided bun would be a perfect hairstyle for figure skating! I can totally picture an ice skater wearing this bun in a performance or competition. Of course, it would be great for many other occasions as well. Wouldn't this be a cute hairstyle for ballet / dance? Or, a sophisticated and polished Prom Updo?
This up-style is a variation of a "sock bun" so you will need some type of a bun maker to create this look. We used our "hair donut " which we found at Sally Beauty Supply. These come in many different brands and varieties and are usually fairly cheap to purchase. If you don't have a bun maker, you could take a sock, cut off the toes and roll it up to form the same donut shape. There are many tutorials on TH-cam showing how to do this.
This bun is quite versatile in that you can change up the braid to create different looks. We chose a French braid bun this time, but you could also do a Dutch braid, 4 strand braid, twist braid, or even a French fishtail instead.
