What You’ll Need to Create a Slick Back Bun:

Step-by-Step Guide to Styling a Slick Back Bun:

Step 1: Smooth Your Hair

Start by brushing through dry hair with the Stefan Duboa Brush. This will create a smooth and sleek base, which is essential for the perfect slick back bun.


Step 2: Tame Flyaways

Apply the Stefan Flyaway Stick around your hairline to smooth frizz and control baby hairs. This wax stick not only tames flyaways but also gives your hair a polished and long-lasting hold.


Step 3: Create Your Base Ponytail

Keep a clean centre part and gather your hair into a tight ponytail at the middle of your head. Secure it with a tight hair tie to ensure your slick back bun stays in place all day.


Step 4: Twist Your Ponytail

Divide your ponytail into two sections. Twist each section into a spiral, then twist them together to form a rope.


Step 5: Form the Bun

Wrap the twisted rope around the base of your ponytail to create a bun shape. Secure it tightly with bobby pins, making sure there are no loose strands.


Step 6: Perfect the Finish

Use the Stefan Flyaway Wand to smooth down any stray hairs and add a touch of shine. For extra hold, finish with a light mist of hairspray.
