Lisa Goodwin+FollowHow to Do a Messy Bun With Thin Hair If you’ve got fine hair, you’ve probably wondered more than once: Can I actually pull off a messy bun? Good news is - you totally can. It’s all about creating the illusion of volume and letting go of perfection. Here’s the trick: 1️⃣ Start with volume. Dry shampoo is your BFF. Spray it at the roots and give it a fluff—this gives you that full base to work with. 2️⃣ Ponytail it. Pull your hair into a ponytail where you want your bun to sit. Use a no-crease hair tie to keep things smooth. 3️⃣ Wrap & secure. Twist the ponytail around itself and secure it with a second hair tie. It’ll look tight and weird at first—don’t panic. 4️⃣ Mess it up. Gently tug the bun to loosen it. Let pieces fall out, shape it to your liking, and lock it in with a few pins and some hairspray. Finish with a bit of shine spray if you like that extra gloss. Got your own messy bun trick? Drop it in the comments 👇 #MessyBuns #ThinHairTips #HairHacks #HairTutorial #HairCare 20Share
