- Correct protruding strands with varnish or spray.

Using a donut
A bagel is a special hair device consisting of a sponge or dense mesh. There are 2 types - with and without a clasp. In the first case, fixing and distributing the hair will be more convenient, and in the second, it will be reliable.
There are 2 ways to make a bun using a donut.
Option 1 will require a minimum of time and equipment:
- Gather your hair in a ponytail at the crown of your head with a regular elastic band
- Put a donut on top of the hair. Spread hair evenly over its surface.
- Holding the structure with one palm, twist and collect the hair sticking out below into one strand with the other hand.
- Secure the remaining tail with invisibility.
You will get an even volumetric bundle, but it is important that the length is sufficient to secure it. Due to the lack of fixing agents, the hairstyle can quickly deteriorate.
The 2nd option starts with the same sequence, but after distributing the hair, they are fixed with a 2nd thin elastic band. It is better to choose colorless silicone. The remaining tips will need to be distributed to curls and bent, each fixing with invisibility.
Low beam
Classic hairstyles seem complicated until you have to do one of them yourself. Low beam is this case. You can get your hair done in 3 minutes.
- To do this, you need to collect all the hair at the bottom, securing it with a thin elastic band to match the hair color.
- Lowering it a little, you need to divide all the hair into 2 equal strands above the fastening.
- The resulting tail, directing from the outside to the inside, will need to be passed into the resulting hole.
- You need to repeat the action as many times as there is enough length.
- The remaining small tip must be fixed with an invisible inside the resulting beam.
- The whole structure can be sprayed with varnish for better fixation.
For completeness of the image, in the upper part of the cocoon, you can fix a comb or invisible ones with decor.
High beam
A bun for medium hair can be made without additional accessories. For example, a tall version of it looks complete, but it usually takes a lot of time to create such a hairstyle.
The sequence of actions is as follows:
- Distribute all hair into 5 zones: hat, 2 temporal, bangs and occipital. Fasten the hat with an elastic band, after making a small fleece.
- Create root volume on both temporal zones using a curling iron. Fasten with an overlap, leaving the ends hanging loose.
- Comb the bangs a little and attach them to the central part with the help of an invisibility.
- Now the central tail needs to be bent, and around it twist alternately strands from the temporal zones and bangs.
- Secure the remaining free back of the hair with invisible hair, wrap the ends around the bun in the center and fix.
The option looks voluminous and is more suitable for a party than for a regular walk in the park.
On the sides
The bun looks elegant on one side, but now hairstyles with 2 small "bumps" on both sides are at the peak of popularity.
The complexity of the image lies in the selection of accessories.
For a small, halved hair volume, finding a suitable donut is difficult and self-made accessories are unreliable.
The way out will be a special way of creating that is suitable only for this type of hairstyle.
Divide the entire volume of hair exactly in half; on each side, using simple elastic bands, make simple tails at a convenient height.
For each, stepping back from the edge no more than 5 cm, fasten a small elastic band. Divide the tip into 2 parts. Now you need to wind each of the tails onto the forked tip, like a skewer.
Do not twist tightly, as this will take away volume. At the end of the creation of each bundle, you need to evenly distribute the strands of the structure and fix each with invisibility. The hairstyle is noticeably youthful, giving the image spontaneity.
Sloppy, vanilla bunch
A deliberately careless hairstyle is liked by many girls, because this version of the beam does not require more than 2 minutes. for creating. To make it, you need only 1 elastic band of medium density. First, the entire volume of hair will need to be collected and started to pass through the elastic band.
You cannot complete the action; it is enough to stop in the middle. The resulting loop of hair must be fixed by twisting the elastic band once. The tips are fixed with the other half. It turns out a sloppy bunch, the volume of which can be changed by pulling out individual strands alternately.
Smooth beam
A bun for medium hair is easy to make if you want volume and carelessness.
Smooth options are more difficult to implement, but the simplest one can be done without outside help:
- In the back of the head, collect all the hair, separate the lower third.
- Fasten the main part with an elastic band, bending it in half in the form of a loop.
- Wind the lower hair in the place where the elastic is attached to mask it. Fix the tip at the bottom with invisibility.
A simple low bun will be perfectly smooth if the hair is carefully straightened and sprayed on at the end.
Volumetric beam
It is not difficult to create a large volume without additional tools if you prepare your hair correctly. You need to start by collecting the entire volume in a high tail. After that, you need to make a small corrugation using a special nozzle, and also comb the curls along the entire length.

This type of hairstyle looks voluminous and careless, so the image and the reason for it should be carefully selected.
Braided
The bun can be done with braiding, which looks interesting on medium hair.
This can be done quickly enough:
- Collect a high tail. Divide hair into 2 halves - front and back.
- You need to start weaving from the front. A regular 3-curl braid is the simplest and most suitable technique. However, you need to weave not from the base, but stepping back 10 cm from the elastic.
- After making a few movements, start adding curls from the front of the tail. The result is a sheet of hair attached to the end with a pigtail.
- Gradually, you need to weave the entire volume into the structure and complete the technical part of the creation by securing a thin braid with an elastic band.
- Now you need to evenly distribute the hair using invisibility, creating a bun that is hollow inside. Hide the pigtail at the end inside the structure.
Despite the apparent simplicity, creating an image will require training.
With harnesses
