using only hair for updos

I can put my hair in to a secureish bun using only my own hair (no clips)-are there any other styles you can do with only your own hair?

Can anyone else do the bun with their hair and how long does it have to be?

 I can put my hair in a pony tail using my hair to wrap around the pony tail and hold it in place. I can also do a bun.

goodness no. Too slippery... too slippery. I wish I could! How I envy you LadyFrog  

For the bun, I pull my hair back as though I am putting it in a ponytail, then twist it, then loop it around to put it in a bun, then pull the last ends through the middle (from back to front). It doesn't work with clean hair, but works great with hair that hasn't been washed for a few days. I wonder if I will be able to do this once my hair grows longer...?

I love this style! I had a friend who wore her hair like that all the time.
I tried to do it when my hair was long, but it had too many layers so it
wouldn't stay up. What's really great about this style is when you want to
take it down, do as follows:

1. Stand within an eye shot of a hot guy, or the guy you like at the time.

2. Flip your head over and shake your head little bit to loosen up the bun

3. Then flip back again, letting your hair flow freely as it flips over your
head and falls down your back

4. Follow up by non chalantly running your fingers though your hair to
get it out of your face

I find this to be an effective mating call.

I love it!  I like how you called it an "effective mating call" because that's so accurate.

  You'd have my attention!

tdouty - Yes, this is true.

missrini - only if you are currently availible at the time of course! he he

That's great Sugaree!  What fun!

I used to be able to do the bun alone thing when my hair was platinum...It was dried out enough to have good "stick it" stay power. There were some advantages to having dried out hair.  Its also harder to do when your ends are blunt instead of tapered. (Can't do it now, still too short and slippery).
