DIY: Sock Bun tutorial







IDK bout u but i have curly hair and there are some days i just don't want to do anything to it....but i don't want to scared people with my Afro hahaha!!!! So i just remembered a thing my second sister used to do when she wasn't feeling like going over-board with her hair ( and her hair was curly and all the way til the waist...or longer!!!) she would just grab a pair of old socks or the sock she couldn't find the pair and would do this very simple thing!!!! So here i'm doing a very short tutorial of what i remember she showed me!!!








Materials!!!!!
- Sock!!! (old, new, missing pair, ur partner's sock, your kids, W.E.)
-Scissors
-Music (optional) >.<
- Ur head full of hair, LOL
- Elastic hair band
- Pins (optional, to secure bun)






-So grab that sock and cut the S**T out of it....LOL you don't have to be as aggressive as i was...LOL




-After cutting the S**T out of that sock, now is time to form the "bun", so start to "fold", Roll or W.E. you want to say...as long as W.E. you do forms that bun shape >.<




-Now Tie your hair as high or low as you want, do 2 ponytails if your feeling a bit Star War's character too, >.<   Then put on the sock bun, then grab the ends of the ponytail and start to roll the S**T of that sock bun,      
Optional use pins to secure the bun in place, but if your hair like mine it will stay in place....Optional....make the hair do messy to make it look sexier!!!!! And for straight hair if you want that "wave" in ur hair...u know what to do grab ur tools and curl ur hair a bit b4 doing any of the "hair steps" >.<

This is PERFECT for summer...for the pool, the beach....just bring that sock bun with u and do it right after  coming out of the water....it will look hot 4 sure!!!!




Taaaadaaahhhhh!!!!

Monokini from long sleeve shirt!

For this summer i wanted to get for myself a swimsuit that would be a bit less revealing than a 2 piece bikini...for my own personal reasons. So i checked online stores but the prices are just too much, in the stores, same story. I checked in Victoria's Secret site and saw the same one i wanted to get and loved it!! But i was like..."There is no way i'm paying that much for this monokini!" So i grabbed a bikini bottom of my swimsuit that fit and a long sleeve shirt and got started...i didn't really draft a pattern for the rest of the monokini, so here is the finish product:









I am very happy with the finish product, although i had to add black elastic lace for more coverage for my "lemons" LOL....i think anyone with a little bit of sewing experience can make this....its a bit time consuming if you have never done something like this and you have a little one like a do, this took me a whole day to finish it, but so worth it!!!

Here is a quick video of the process of making the monokini =)


  
Sorry i dont explain anything i was so exited that i forgot all of that, remember this wasn't supposed to be a tutorial until now =) enjoy it 

Thank you for watching
