Are y'all loving the princess/sock bun hairstyle, I know I am! It's a great look for when you're in a hurry and don't have time to wash your hair. Just spray on some dry shampoo, and try this hairstyle out. Here are a few ways to wear a princess/sock bun.
1.Bun with a Bow: This is one of my personal favorites, wearing the bun with a bow. Pick a spot that goes with your look or outfit. It may be in the back under the bun, or on top in front of the bow. It can even go on the sideways on either side of your head.
2. Bun with a Scarf: Choose one of your light weight scarves and wrap it around your bun loosely. It will give you the modern turban look. Or just pair up a bun with a scarf around you neck, to dress up your outfit, but still have that casual feel to it.
3. Bun with a Braid: Start with you hair down then flip it over. Now start to braid/French braid your hair down the back. Then do the Bun as usual. There ya have it, a cute twist to a bun!
4.Bun with a Headband: Headbands go great with anything, so why not pair it up with a Princess/Sock bun? I usually go for the simple braided leather headband. Pick one that you love and rock the outfit!

Today I thought I would share my experiences dyeing my hair. Recently I dyed my hair another color.
First, I dyed my hair with highlights when I was younger, but it didn't go so well. The highlights were uneven and in places were they should not have been. Then, I dyed my whole head a lighter brown, which went alright. After my hair color faded and grew out, I dyed the bottom layer, light ash blond. That was when it actually turned out pretty good. I was so happy that, a few months later I dyed my hair in the ombre technique, ash blond. I got the hang of things and it worked out fine.
Which brings us to now, I waited on having my hair colored again a while to let it become healthier. I decided to dye it again, but this time it was to make it appear healthy. I dyed my hair back to a medium brown, now its all one color!
Usually when people have hair that is one color or that's darker, it looks healthier. Sometimes I think it even looks healthier when you first dye hair. Now I'm not saying that it is healthy, it just looks as if it is. So if your a person who is concerned about the health of your hair my technique might not be the best, but it works for me.
When dyeing hair, follow the directions on the box. I recommend wearing a trash bag or clothes you don't care about while dyeing your hair. Prior to dyeing hair I think you should wash your hair with shampoo only then 4-5 hours later start dyeing you hair. This will allow the dye to absorb, and the color to blend better. Then when your conditioning, after you dye your hair, add a little of you own conditioner, and leave in for 5 minutes. This is where you will get a deep conditioning, so that your hair will feel soft.
Once your done dyeing your hair you want to either air dry your hair or blow dry it. Then put on some leave in conditioner.
I hope this gave you an idea of what to do when at-home dyeing your hair.

Open-eyed Tip: When applying the dye to roots make sure NOT to massage into scalp, it will make it much lighter than the rest of your hair and un-natural. It says not to massage or rub it into scalp on most directions, but most people overlook that detail. Instead just dab onto roots, trust me, it will absorb the color. It can make all the difference.
