In fact, it\u2019s the opposite of a secret! It\u2019s very rare to see me wearing my hair any other way, as I\u2019ve now been embracing sleek buns for almost five years. Over these years, I\u2019ve fine-tuned and perfected this hairstyle. Although many of you have requested to see my <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-atlantic-pacific.com\/2021\/02\/25\/healthy-hair-down-ulta\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">hair down<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> more often, I rarely stray from a sleek bun because it\u2019s the style that works for me. Today I\u2019m excited to share more about why I love this hairstyle, a sleek hair bun tutorial, tips for perfecting this style, and outfit inspiration to wear with a sleek bun.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n<h2 id=\"h-why-i-love-a-sleek-bun\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Why I Love a Sleek Bun<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I consider my beauty and hair evolution to be just as important as my style evolution. When I <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-atlantic-pacific.com\/2018\/02\/21\/faq-blogging-journey\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">first started blogging<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in 2010 my outfits were much different than the ones I wear today. It only makes sense that as my fashion choices have evolved, so has my hairstyle.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are so many reasons why I love a good bun \u2013 this style just \u201cworks for me\u201d<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">!<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> For one, this hairstyle <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">compliments<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> my personal fashion choices. Since I typically focus on over-the-top fashion, I feel like a sleek bun really allows my outfits to stand out and shine. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another bonus? A style like this looks fabulous with a statement headband or a pair of big, big earrings \u2013 which happen to be two of my favorite accessories.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I also feel comfortable and confident when wearing my hair this way. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you get the hang of it, a sleek bun is fast and simple to create <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and stays put all day. After <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I put it up in the morning, I don\u2019t even have to think about it or worry that I need to touch it up!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another reason why I love a simple bun is because it has significantly transformed the health of my hair \u2013 goodbye split ends and a head full of flyaways! Before I started wearing my hair in this style back in 2018, I was curling my fine, color-treated hair every day. This resulted in so much damage. After switching to a sleek hair bun and going a bit darker, my hair has become <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">so<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> much healthier and now has minimal breakage and damage.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n<h2 id=\"h-frequently-asked-questions\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Frequently Asked Questions<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Almost every time I do a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-atlantic-pacific.com\/2022\/09\/10\/qa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">question and answer session<\/a>, I receive so many questions about how to create my sleek hair bun (along with questions about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-atlantic-pacific.com\/2018\/02\/21\/faq-blogging-journey\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">how I started blogging<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-atlantic-pacific.com\/2018\/02\/23\/faq-what-is-merchandising\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">my merchandising career<\/a>).

Plus, it is an affordable drugstore find, which is a big bonus! Again, since my hair is fine, it needs a lot of product to hold it in place all day. I apply mousse from the top of my head all the way down to the ends. Next, I blow dry all over for two to three minutes. I typically leave my hair slightly damp while continuing to style. I have found my hair tends to stay better this way and will continue to slowly dry on its own. Plus, less heat equals less damage. If I am not in a hurry, to avoid using any heat on my hair, I will allow my hair to air dry for about 30 minutes versus blow drying.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2265\" height=\"3264\" alt=\"sleek bun, bristle brush, atlantic-pacific\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the-atlantic-pacific.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/HAIR-FOUR.jpg 2265w, https:\/\/the-atlantic-pacific.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/HAIR-FOUR-295x425.jpg 295w, https:\/\/the-atlantic-pacific.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/HAIR-FOUR-768x1107.jpg 768w, https:\/\/the-atlantic-pacific.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/HAIR-FOUR-640x922.jpg 640w\" src=\"https:\/\/the-atlantic-pacific.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/HAIR-FOUR.jpg\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 2265px) 100vw, 2265px\" class=\"wp-image-34749 lazyload\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2265\" height=\"3264\" src=\"https:\/\/the-atlantic-pacific.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/HAIR-FOUR.jpg\" alt=\"sleek bun, bristle brush, atlantic-pacific\" class=\"wp-image-34749\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the-atlantic-pacific.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/HAIR-FOUR.jpg 2265w, https:\/\/the-atlantic-pacific.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/HAIR-FOUR-295x425.jpg 295w, https:\/\/the-atlantic-pacific.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/HAIR-FOUR-768x1107.jpg 768w, https:\/\/the-atlantic-pacific.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/HAIR-FOUR-640x922.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2265px) 100vw, 2265px\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h3 id=\"h-step-four-pull-hair-back-into-a-tight-low-ponytail\">Step Four: Pull Hair Back Into a Tight Low Ponytail<\/h3>\n<p>Using the <a href=\"https:\/\/shopstyle.it\/l\/bQZZ1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">boar bristle brush<\/a>, I pull my hair back into a tight low ponytail.

There you have it, my tutorial on how to create a sleek bun! In addition to these steps, I\u2019ve come up with some tips for this hairstyle over the years. Following these tips will help take your sleek bun to the next level and ensure it lasts all day.<\/p>\n<p>-Don\u2019t be afraid to use a lot of product! With my fine hair, I need mousse and hairspray to keep all my flyaways in place as well as oil to give it shine and a flawless finish.<\/p>\n<p>-Be sure to clean your boar bristle brush! I clean mine once every two weeks, but this could vary depending on how much hair you have. Fill a Tupperware container with warm water and shampoo and let the brush soak face down for 15 minutes. Once the hair has become loose, using a fine tooth comb, begin to brush the hair out from the base of the bristles outward.<\/p>\n<p>-Test out different products to see what works for you. The hair products I mentioned today are ones I\u2019ve come to love over the past few years. But, if you find they aren\u2019t working well for you (everyone\u2019s hair is different after all), give some others a try.
