DIY Sock Bun Part 2: The Sock

October 3, 2012 1:04 am

After posting the instruction for my favourite hair secret, the sock bun, I received several questions about making the sock doughnut, something I skipped right past in my original post. Making the sock doughnut is super easy, so follow the animated instructions to make one yourself!

1. Grab a clean sock and a pair of scissors.
2. Cut off the toe of the sock.

3. You now have an open-ended sock, or a very small leg warmer.
4. Roll the sock into a doughnut, see animation below to see it happen!

I hope this clears up any confusion in making the sock doughnut, I’m loving all your comments about your successful sock buns, and loving all your questions!
Cheers!

    Cheap and easy, especially as I always manage to lose socks in the washing machine so end up with one lonely sock! Thanks for the post.

    I was wondering if you knew how to make a hair art? Like that long fuzzy stick that you can shape into a circle to make a bun? I don’t want to shape it into a circle because I would like to use it for a pin-up bang style. (if this makes any sense)

      Hi Marie! I’ve never tried to use a fuzzy stick to make hair art, but colour me intrigued!!! I’ll see what I can come up with for a pin up style bang, I do love Gwen Stefani! Cheers! Alana
