Hello my weekly Fashion readers!

Having issues with damaged or complicated hair? Maybe trouble with not having enough time to get ready in the mornings? Are you becoming fed up with your hair? If any of these questions apply to you, I have the perfect solution! In this weeks blog I am going to talk to you about the hottest trend currently in today’s fashion: the Sock Bun.

Recently the “Sock Bun” has become a very trendy and innovative styling technique among women of all ages, not just soccer moms and ballerinas, looking for a quick and easy way to have a classy and clean look, or even gorgeous curls! It works well in all lengths of hair as well as any texture, and can be done in a matter of minutes. For me personally, I am not a person that loves washing their hair everyday, so I may choose to wash my hair one day, wear the sock bun allowing it to air dry, sleep in it overnight as well, then take it out and rock the glorious curls the next morning!  An eHow Contributor tells us:

Hair buns are beautiful, classic and easy hairstyles that have a long and distinct history. Buns are as beautiful today as they were when it was considered socially correct for only matrons to wear them, and they've lost much of the prim stigma they used to have. A bun can be worn for any occasion. (eHow Style)

Buns are a perfect style for a nice outing, a professional conference, or even going to work out with friends! Place your hair in a high ponytail, slip the hair through the center of the rolled sock, then roll down until the bun meets the crown of the head. The instructions are simple and it looks  flawless. This look is suitable for anyone who chooses to wear it.

Here is a tutorial showing the instructions further in depth. Good Luck!
