When giant ballerina buns were trending last year, I poured over Youtube videos and picture tutorials trying to emulate the look. And you know what? They were super helpful. Tube sock in hand, I coaxed my hair into a huge bun worthy of Audrey Hepburn. So with that in mind, I scoured the internet for hairstyling tutorials with step-by-step directions to amp up your everyday look. Leave your boring ponytail at the door.
