Curly hacks: 15 minute bun

Time is a commodity when you have curls: you want it to look stunning every single time, but as the minutes tick away the option of a lengthy refresh day slips away. Between washes, we have created another quick and stylish updo that ticks chic sartorial boxes, without feeling like you’re imitating Gen Z. This curly twisted bun is your new best friend for third, fourth (or even fifth) day hair. It takes just 15 minutes and requires nothing more than our leave- conditioners.

Here's what you'll need:

  • [Eight, Ten, or Ten pro leave-in conditioner]

  • Hair tie - scrunchie works too.

  • Bobby pins/grips

Step 1: Apply product

Apply enough of your leave-in directly to your hair and rake it evenly through your curls. This rehydrates your curl pattern, allowing it to be revealed and keeps it malleable for smoothing back into a bun < essential for this style.

Step 2: Twist

Gather your hair into a mid-level ponytail. Secure it firmly with a hair tie. Here's the twist : instead of a regular ponytail, separate your curls into 5 sections and gently twist each section. Secure each section with the grips/ bobby bins.

Step 3: Check and smooth

Admire your bun and check each angle, seeing whether you need to use any other hair grips to keep your cute bun secure.

This hairstyle is perfect for work, errands, or even a night out. Styled with Ten pro leave-in conditioner, but it works beautifully with all of our conditioners, even on fine curls.

Bonus Tip: For extra hold smooth extra leave-in over the fluffy bits.

This style works best on second or third-day hair, as freshly washed curls might be too slippery for the bun to hold. So, embrace those non-wash days and rock your curls with this quick and easy twisted bun.
