No Sock Sock-bun

The Sock Bun!!

We all know what the sock bun is.  It is pretty and simple but sleek too.  Back in the day my synchronized skating team would use bun forms to make this nice little shape, and now girls do it in real life with a cut up sock.  Usually when I wear my hair in a bun I literally just tie it in a top on the top of my head without using anything to secure it. A literal "top-knot" if you will, but today I decided to switch it up.  Since I have a limited number of socks (why am I always buying them and never having any?!), I decided to fake my way to a sock bun. 

From the front, it looks like a normal but, sock or no sock.  What I did was put my hair in a high pony tail, and folded that into a semi loop, only halfway down. Then I twisted the rest of it around that loop, so it looks like a donut from the top and front, but from the side it has a little more lift in the back, because that's the loop I folded from the pony tail.

 You see what I'm saying about the lift in back?

Et Voila! from the top, it looks exactly like a sock bun!
