This video tutorial shows a very simple way to spice up an updo hairstyle, for any holiday occasion. This one happens to be for Valentine’s Day.
In this video (you can use Messy Bun #1 or Messy Bun #2), I use a thin ribbon cut into small strips (length can vary), and then tie them onto bobby pins. You can tie the ribbons into tiny bows if you would like, but I did not have time when I filmed this tutorial. If you make the ribbons longer… you can curl them by running the edge of scissors along the ribbon so that they look like curly-q’s. Then I place the bobby pins throughout the messy bun until the hair style looks right.
Items Needed: 6-8 small bobby pins, thin colored ribbon, scissors
Time Requirement: 5+ minutes
Skill Level: Easy

I just found your site a couple days ago, and have loved watching all your videos! My daughter has fine hair. I have had it cut into a style, but it never looks fixed, or if fixed it doesn’t look good for long. I have had so much fun the last couple of days playing with her hair, and having her look BEAUTIFUL all day!! We did this messy bun with ribbons to day and got so many compliments! Thank you SO much for taking the time to help others!
