Put a Sock in It

I've known for a while about the ever popular "sock bun", but after a few failed attempts I had all but given up. Today I went for a haircut and left with a fabulous sock bun (and only one socked foot).

Here is the final result! Yes, there is a black trouser sock in my bun. I shamefully admit that the sock came right from my foot. I know, it's kind of gross, but desperate times call for desperate measures. I am still working on mastering the technique on my own, but it is definitely a style I plan to incorporate into my daily life, and the hairstyle I plan on having for Katie's August wedding.

Here is a link to a sock bun tutorial and another. There are plenty of video tutorials on youtube as well!
