It snowed for the first time this year here where we are in Colorado. I’m sure it has been snowing in the mountains, but down in the city, this week was the first! I was excited for it, and had to go out and take pictures, but I was having a bad hair day (aka it’s the day I don’t wash my hair, please don’t judge me haha. I read somewhere that it’s actually healthier for your hair if you don’t wash it every day, so I only wash it every 2-3 days). So I thought I’d try a sock bun! I’ve seen it on Pinterest and on YouTube, but have actually never tried it before until this week. Look at these pictures, and notice my bun! What do you think?
At first I was a little weirded out by how gigantic my bun turned out to be. I thought maybe it was a little too much, like I was wearing a fake bun. But then I kinda liked it, so I went with it. The more I look at it now, the more I love it!
Just a quick tip if you haven’t tried it and want to try it now, or if you have but didn’t have much success: If you hair is layered, it’s more difficult to roll into the sock, so start with the sock not rolled and then roll your hair and sock at the same time, as opposed to rolling the sock first and then rolling your hair into the rolled sock. If that makes any sense 🙂
So what did you think of my sock bun? Have you ever tried it?

Ur hair still looks gorgeous that way! I actually really like it:-). I definitely don’t watch my hair everyday either and usually every 2nd or 3rd day and use dry shampoo. This is the cutest shirtdress also paired with those ankle boots:-). Have an awesome weekend !

Yeah washing your hair should not be regularly done. Love your messy bun.

You look lovely, Lily! I love your outfit and your bun came out perfect 🙂 Wow, you have snow already! We don’t start to get snow here in New York until mid-late December. It usually gets worse around February and March. Anyway, I hope you have a lovely day and weekend ahead, beautiful!

You look so pretty in that cosy outfit and your sock bun is lovely 🙂 Snow already? That’s great, we are still having temperature around 16-20 degrees, so it doesn’t feel like Autumn at all 🙂

I agree about getting weirded out at how big they turn out, but I think that you just have to get used to it. It looks really, really good!!!
