A step-by-step guide for the perfect slick back bun this Christmas
The slick back bun is a timeless and elegant hairstyle that’s perfect for the festive season. Whether you’re heading to a Christmas party, a family gathering, or simply want a polished look for the holidays, this style has you covered.
One of the best things about the slick back bun ? It’s even easier to style on hair that hasn’t been washed for a few days, making it a low-maintenance yet high-impact choice.
What You’ll Need to Create a Slick Back Bun:
- Stefan Duboa Brush : To smooth and detangle your hair
- Stefan Flyaway Wax Stick : A must-have wax stick to tame frizz and baby hairs
- Tight Hair Ties : For a firm ponytail base
- Bobby Pins : To keep your bun secure
- Stefan Flyaway Wand : For a sleek and polished finish
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.
