If you’re tired of your flowing long locks constantly getting windblown, the classic messy bun is a perfect solution to your hair woes. As the temperatures rise, frizzy locks and glistening complexions are inevitable, which will surely lead to distressed tresses. If you’re wondering how to style your Rapunzel-like strands this season, here’s how to master the effortless messy bun now.

1) Start off with a head of messy waves: In order to launch your hairstyle on a right note, start with messy, slightly textured waves. If you have naturally straight hair, you can always use a one inch curling iron to create beach waves for a subtle effect.

2) Pull your wavy locks back into a high bun: Next, style your wavy locks back into a high ponytail and then flip the ponytail into a rolled-up bun. Secure your strands with an elastic band to keep your high bun in place.

3) Adjust the bun to create more volume and texture: As a finishing touch, use your fingers to carefully fluff out your bun and bring volume to your hairstyle. The texture will help to create thicker-looking strands, and a carefree-looking bun as a result.

4) Use bobby pins to secure flyaway strands: After you’ve perfected your high bun, hold loose strands near the base of your hairstyle in place with bobby pins. Use your fingers to adjust any flyaways and bring a smooth, flawless finishing touch to your hairstyle.
