You asked for it.
I have received numerous comments and emails asking for a sock bun how-to!
Y'all know I love me a good sock bun and as silly as I feel doing a video blog,
I feel like I OWE IT TO YOU GALS to teach you how to do a sock bun.
They are that essential to my getting ready repertoire now. Every lovely lady
must be able to pull the sock bun out of her bag of tricks.
So, I'll let the video do the talking. It's a little longer than I anticipated.
There's several photo bombs cameos from Slade. It's a little bit of chaos.But y'all.
If it was perfectly quiet and crazy-free... well, it just wouldn't be real life, now would it?
You have to let me know if you try a sock bun!
Send me a picture if you get it right and I'll post a group of them on the blog!
GORGE!!!! I'll be trying it tonight! ;)
ReplyDeleteTotally trying this! Thanks for the tutorial!
ReplyDeleteYou are adorable and can rock that sock bun like no other!!!
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOUUU for this! I can't wait to try it tonight...if I get this to work tonight, I'm doing it tomorrow. You're awesome---and I love your "fakeout" terminology for workout clothes. ANDD your little one is precious!!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Thanks for hosting the scarf swap! I had so much fun!
You are so hilarious and your sweet little man is adorable.
ReplyDeleteLove! You are so cute. I swear I thought I saw you at the dotMOM conference this weekend. Your "twin" was with me in line to get coffee. We chatted briefly and I felt like I was talking to YOU!
ReplyDeleteI love this! I have been rocking the sock bun ever since you debuted yours on here. Thank you so much! It has been a life-saver hair style for me because I can still look glam when I don't have time, which is every day lol. My favorite part of the video is precious Slade and his little laugh! Oh my goodness! He is too cute for words.
ReplyDeleteI learned something new!!! I seriously thought you bobby pinned the hair around the sock instead of rolling it. I think my hair might be long enough for a sock bun! I'm going to give it a try!
ReplyDeleteAlso, you are so cute! I loved putting a voice to your face! So fun! Jillian watched with me and loved it, too! :)
I AM SQUEALING WITH DELIGHT!! THANK YOU THANK YOU for posting this!! I have watched some i found from pinterest, but you may have noticed, I have never had a picture of me sporting a sock bun! Can't wait to give it another try tomorrow :) SO glad you did this :) ps- slade is the most precious thing ever
ReplyDeleteI used to do one and would put a thin hair tie over it once finished for a tight look as well. Great video!

ReplyDeleteLove this- was exactly what I needed to try the sock bun- Thanks so much for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteYou are so cute! I tried this after you posted pics with a sockbun the first time and it was a hot mess on me. All my hair just kept falling out every time I tried to roll it down. I gave up and threw the sock in the trash! I guess I'll have to cut another sock up!
ReplyDeleteThanks for this! You are a DOLL by the way! :)
ReplyDeleteYou are adorable! Loved the video and your precious Slade. I love wearing my hair in a sock bun. Sally's and H&M sell a sock bun donut that comes in several colors to match hair color. Just another option. :)

ReplyDeleteHow cute are you!? I, too, have become a fan of this hair trick. I'll have to send you a picture this week :)
ReplyDeleteP.S. Hi sweet Slade!!
You're so cute! I tried the sock bun, and I looked like the Michelle Duggar type. Not that that's a bad thing...just not really the look I'm going for ;) It's so chic on you, though!
ReplyDeleteha ha ha Im sorry but all I could watch for was slade cracking up that he was on video... love it!
ReplyDeleteSeriously with a baby constantly on my hip, I couldn't imagine NOT having the sock bun in my life! I rock one at least once a week! Hehe :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for doing this tutorial, Meredith! You are so cute and you sure do rock the sock bun!! I gave it a try last night & couldn't believe how easy it was. I posted a pic on my instagram (husker_girl) if you want to check it out :)
