For my dancers who need extra hold!! I'm about to make your life easier!! Two words: spin pins. They're double corkscrew shaped hair pins that you twist into your bun, and they are BEAUTIFUL. I use TWO and my hair is ROCK SOLID no matter how long it's up or what I'm doing. I've done this for auditions, conventions, college showcase rehearsals, class (usually just one pin for class), and nothing moves an inch. For reference my hair is somewhat fine and elbow/lower back length, but I've also had friends with thick hair use them with success.
Hey I just wanted to say good job! I love your videos. You inspire me to be a better Mom! You make me think, if she can do then so can I! God bless you and keep you on your walk with him!
As a ballerina I always have my mom do my hair for recitals because I cant do them myself(btw I'm not like a 20 year old making my mom do my hair) because they are so oddly specific, I also have really long hair which makes any style hard to do/keep in. Recently though, my dance studio has enforced a bun rule and I nor my mom have time to do that every single dance class and I have long hair so its hard to get a good looking bun that will stay in. I tried this and I'm happy so say it worked thank you so much!❤❤❤
My favorite tip I’ve ever got in growing up as a dancer and now a dance teacher put the twist in the hairnet and then do the bun it’s a lifesaver I will never do my buns without putting my hair in the hairnet first especially if you have curly hair or like layers or hair that falls out of pins really easily
OML!! It was the nutcracker last year and my sister usually does my hair but she had to leave to the studio early!!! One of the “ballet moms” did my hair and I was crying for a straight hour because it looked like a doorknob! I ran to my sister and she redid it. BALLET BUNS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE FLAT!!
Ballet bun: stays in place after removing the pins and hair ties from the amount of hair gel, and gives your 6 year old a face lift from how tight it is. That was literally the standard at the studio I attended as a kid lol. Rock solid no flyaways.
Thanks for the video. I live in FLA where it's insanely hot...and I'm tired of the messy bun look. I tried this and it looks fabulous. I couldn't tell if you went clockwise with the first ponytail, then counterclockwise with the other ponytail...but, that's how I do it...looks nice and neat.
As a former dancer, when getting ready for my ballet numbers we had to use don't rings. Let me tell you It felt as if I was getting my hair done forever. It HURT
Im a dancer who does a bunch of dances 1 of them being ballet, so its not gonna loom crazy good like this as its not the studios main thing, all dances are
Actually, the last time I went to ballet, you didn’t need a bun just keep your hair up unless you have short hair, and it doesn’t need to be perfectly exactly like that. I’m not saying your wrong because we all go to different ballet companies with different rules, different hair.
It’s professional to have a bun . My 3 yr old granddaughter goes to dancing school it’s her 2nd year teacher said hair has to be up . And a bun is just more nicer and her bun is perfectly done 🌻🌻🌻
When you go to ballet I’m in comp but even regular it’s better to keep in a tight bun so I dose not fall out while dancing I have ballet 2 times a week point and classical and both I have to do a tight bun most company’s rather tight Huns but I guess yours doesn’t or your just very young
It depends which steps you're practicing, as soon as you start properly learning turns with spotting a ponytail is going to sting as it whips you in the face! A ballet bun also helps you clearly see the line of your epaulement. But yes on casual days I have worn braids too for a change!
You should make the hair the center focus of the video, it’s weird how it’s more angled on the child’s body. Parents need to stop including their children in videos. 🙄
“Now mom friends you’re gonna wanna get out the camera and have good lighting and make sure your children are used to always have a camera being pointed in their face because where would we be without strangers showing us how they braid their overprivileged employee children’s hair.”
And it's not even useful because of all the skipping at crucial moments 🙄 Like why would you skip through the actual wrapping of the strands, and not show how you bobby pin it? I found a much better video showing this same technique by Bloch AU, if anyone is trying to learn as well.
It’s not tight enough. Ballet buns aren’t supposed to be “flat”. They are supposed to be low buns in the same “horizontal line” as your nose, and they should be very steady.
