French Pin Bun: This bun is not only beautiful, but also very easy to make
When it comes to elegant hairstyles, we like to look over to our French neighbors, because they always have special styles to discover. This also includes the French pin bun, which is currently very trendy. And not without reason: the style is chic and quick to make. So when time is short in the morning, this bun is the perfect alternative to a simple ponytail.
As the name suggests, you need a French pin for the French pin bun. This is a large, double-tipped hairpin that slides easily into the hair. To create the look, first gather your hair with a brush and fix it with some texturizing spray if necessary. Then, twist your hair into a low bun without using a hair tie. Finally, you tighten the bun by inserting the hairpin into the bun from the front, then twisting it and pushing it through the bun. This way the hair stays firmly in place and if you want you can improve the hold with a little hairspray.
