{P}inspiration: The Sock Bun

How many times do you pin something on Pinterest? Do you ever actually do or buy whatever the pin is? I do every once in a while. However I have decided to do something about that. I am going to actually do some of those things, create some of those outfits! Here is my first {P}inspiration, it is the famous sock bun!

Here is the original pin that pinned:

Sockbun

I have found with my hair that it needs to be almost dry into order to made the curls. If I am wearing the sock bun because I am being a bit lazy then I just take my damp hair and pull it up.

  1. I am gonna have to try this. I love pinterest! In the summer I usually get a hair cut because it is way to hot. Maybe if I can learn this bun I can keep the hair. Thanks.

    I like the idea of doing a sock bun! These seem to be easy steps to do! I really like Pinterest, and pin something almost every day! I think that you did a great job putting your hair in a sock bun!

  3. Wow I didn’t know a sock bun you actually use a sock lol, I love this very cute I often wear my hair in a bun because its so long

  4. Beautiful! I’ll have to try this :)

  6. Miranda M says:

    I actually wore the sock bun out a few weeks ago and it looked really nice!

  7. Harmony B says:

    I will have to try this! I have a huge list of pinterest on my to do list

  8. Alycia M says:

    I’ve seen this pinned so many times, but never tried it. Looks super easy and cute!

  9. Super cute! You did a great job! I really need to start trying more things from pinterest!

  10. I remember doing this years ago- it is surprising me how many of the pins are older ideas- it turns out so pretty though and noone knows you have a sock on your head :)

    I LOVE PInterest and have this same–or a very similar–tutorial pinned! I’m so glad to know this works. Of course, I won’t be using this technique on my fine, thin, short hair :( But I plan to use it on my grand-daughter when I visit Texas in a couple of weeks. I love to pin recipes–I have some of yours pinned.

  12. I should tell you all that I did not use the bobby pins or the rubber band in my hair. Not using these gives you that messy look that is so popular. If you want a more refined and put together look then you should use these.

  13. Nice way to show us how to do a sock bun.

  14. Ash Johnson says:

    I just tried one the other day. My hair is long and thick, so it got pretty huge.

  15. Leslie G. says:

    Imagine the world if we actually all took action on everything we PIN… we’d all be so crafty!!

    This is cute though… I wear a knotted bun most days because my hair is a pain to deal with… but this looks much more polished.

  16. I like browsing Pinterest more than I like actually doing anything I find on there.

    I remember having this in my hair but it was many years back. Kinda brought back memories for me.
