The “Carrie Bun” and a giveaway

December 19, 2012

I love all things SATC, so therefore, I love the huge buns Carrie wears throughout the later seasons. This hairstyle is such a great go-to. It looks classy and simple and is actually fairly simple to do. It just takes a little practice. It is perfect for those holiday parties coming up too!

“Carrie Bun”

Hair length: medium to long
Difficulty: 3.5 bobby pins

Images: Picture 1 Post here,  Picture 2 Post here, Carrie via Pinterest

One of my New Years resolutions is to learn how to actually use iMovie. I filmed this in a hurry and you can tell… I apologize, I promise 2013 hair tutorials will be better, life is a bit crazy right now. 🙂

Will you be trying the Carrie bun? Any questions?

On another note, pop on over to The Chiffon Diary for an awesome giveaway I’m participating in! You wont be sorry!

    You're great with your Youtube videos! I have a hard time with buns because I have really long hair (and a lot of it!), so my bun ends up looking HUGE! haha

    Love it! I will try it – once my hair gets long enough! I love her style here – a bun sometimes looks a little headmistressy – but with the right outfit it works.

    I love the bun look! It's so classy! I've been trying to get my hair into a bun for a long time…haha. Believe it or not I have too much hair! My hair just doesn't stay up and I need those super duper long and wide bobby pins to get it to stay. It's quite a production!
