Hello - I have had extensions to make my hair longer (photo below). Now it's all just my hair. It's super hard to grow hair long, esp when it's in that yuk middle length. Extensions are a great way of dealing with the middle length problem.

Don't go for the horrible glued in hair extensions. They can cause your hair to fall out and look like big dandruff if your hair ever moves.

Long hair tamed into an effortless bun.

I received a recent question about my hair do on Immad's Birthday, I've been asked a few times now. So I have decided to post it up :)
These photos of my hair were taken at the end of the day so it does look a little messy - I didn't anticipate writing a blog post :/

Hello Ruhi,

To achieve the hairstyle in my profile photo I curled my hair using rollers - the Velcro ones.

I have used many types of rollers but these come out the nicest - set the rollers in damp hair and relax for two hours.

Then I divided the hair into three sections - top, middle and bottom. Bun the bottom section loosely, I used a hair band to secure this. 

Then wrap the middle section around the bun using bobby pins, this hides the hair band and makes the hair style appear effortless. 

Scoop the sides of the top section into the middle, securing with bobby pins as you go along. 

I use the largest rollers on the crown of my head for volume. 

Hair spray everything into place - You can use Elnett Hairspray for flexible hold or if you want a more rigid look then try Garnier Fructis Bamboo Flexihold Hairspray.

So in answer to your question, I cheated. Heavy hair refuses to stay in place just with pins.

Hope that helped

:)
