4 Stranded bun

[@arkmom2girls]

Simply amazing! I thought I had done every bun available on my 2 ballerinas...but THIS takes the cake! Beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing it with us!!

[@yupyup1562]

Wow...I can see you have done this lots of times. I think it will take me doing it many times to get the hang of it, but your results have inspired me. What a pretty look. Thank you.

[@KristinaBallerina]

yupyup1562 thank you, oh yes, hundreds of ballet performances, I do use a mirror for on stage, but we couldn't figure out how to record it that way, so it took me a little longer than normal without a mirror as I had to feel for all the sections versus just simply seeing them. (So sorry, I lost access to the account and I had no idea all these replies were here!)

[@SineadxFay]

LOVE IT!!! It's better when people are turned around so you can actually SEE what they're doing. Thank you so much. The bun is beautiful!

[@fabulessfunkeez6642]

holy cow . a lot of hair , dedication and a lotttt of patience . Wow ! awesome Job.

[@MegBirch]

Thank you so much - that's the first time in a long time I've found something new I can do with my hair!! Being as mine's so long and thick, it's hard to find anything elegant yet feasible within a reasonable time period, but this took less than ten minutes and feels really secure. I would feel comfortable wearing this all day. Bravissima!

[@breathingwater76]

I love that she just does it at a good camera angel w/out all the boring instruction. Looks great!

[@NargelsLikesMe]

I first saw this video last spring, and must I say, Thank you. I use this at least once a weak, and it really helps getting my long hair out of the way. It's really hard to find tutorials for longer hair, since the tutorials who claim to be for 'long hair' usually only wrks for chest length. It's not easy for us with tailbone length... So thanks, really Thanks

I needed a hair style I could do for my cousin's wedding. I have 2 left hands when it comes to hair. And the style had to be a bit durable since it was a beach wedding. This was a lifesaver.I felt like combining the strands at the end hide most of the flyaways. Plus I added a clip-in flower where the very end was to hide any strays that came out and to dress it up a bit more. It held great and looked good, even if it wasn't as big as your's. Thanks for helping us hair challenged girls.

[@KristinaBallerina]

wolsh45 this is my go to style to survive a full 2 hour ballet and tons of pirouettes, so it's solid! If you watch at 4:50 I do begin to combine all the tails into a single strand to hold all the wisps in, and then I tuck the last few inches all under the last coil. So glad it worked so well for you, that makes me so happy! (So sorry, I lost access to the account and I had no idea all these replies were here!)

[@Malleolust]

Holy moly, THAT is gorgeous! And it makes it look like your hair is sooooo long. Beautiful! Can't wait to try this!!

[@KristinaBallerina]

Tess Teas thank you! I think my hair was about hip length or longer. (So sorry, I lost access to the account and I had no idea all these replies were here!)

[@TheGoLdenEyedBeauty]

Certainly Elegant and simple..! This is the hairstyle I shall always love...!

[@TheScarletPout]

This is insane! So beautiful, simple yet effective! I wish my hair was long enough to try this...

[@erzbet07]

Thank you for this very instructive, concise video. Appreciate the camera being positioned so each move was clearly evident, plus the pleasant soundtrack. The color of your hair is lovely and it is evident that you have taken good care of it. I wish more long hair videos were as professional as yours. Being able to SEE each facet of the hairstyle is worth more than a page of dialogue!

[@sunkissedbeach]

You did an amazing job in 6 minutes. You also have lovely thick hair. Great job!!!

[@Nadjuset]

The music is SO appropriate for this video. Beautiful music for a beautiful hairstyle. Hope to be able to do my hair like this one day ^_^

[@psykokitty7]

I have been looking for this for years! Thank Torrin she mentioned you! I subscribed and want to do this!

[@KristinaBallerina]

psykokitty7 sorry!!! I lost access to this account and totally forgot about this video! Where did you see this posted?

[@panipirhadi8569]

Looks great, and very practical to wear.

[@solshine26]

I love gigantic buns like this! They make my hair look longer than it really is haha. My hair is at 32ish inches and I was able to do this with a lot of bobby pins. It's really awesome.

[@AngelusSpkGrrl]

It's stunning and all under ten minutes. I'll try it for the holidays.

[@sissy173]

you have beautiful hair, i bet you were the envy of everyone at school! A very good video I'm sure my daughter is going to love her new hairstyle thank you for the video

[@MordiaPender]

Lovely! Going to try as soon as I get back to my hairpins. Want to try with ribbons, too; I think that would be fantastic. Also, great music.

[@valeriesengupta768]

Absolutely beautiful and your hair color is lovely!

[@KristinaBallerina]

Valerie Sengupta Thank you! (So sorry, I lost access to the account and I had no idea all these replies were here!)

[@DvCordia]

So much hair... *_* Such a big bun! It's really gorgeous, I have to try this, too.

[@mysongs56]

Absolutely lovely and very simple!!

[@babieangels]

Lovely. You have such beautiful hair (and so much of it!) God bless!

[@KristinaBallerina]

babieangels thank you! Sometimes it feels like a sentient being on my head, it can get bossy and quite fussy at times! (So sorry, I forgot about this old account and I had no idea all these replies were here!)

[@CatLadyHQ]

This is the most intense bun I've ever seen! completely beautiful!

[@bellaswan7190]

the music and the style are awesome and really great! BRAVOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@ShushLorraine]

I was watching "Cheaper By The Dozen" with Myrna Loy, and she had something similar. I wondered how the coils were made. Very pretty. Thanks for sharing.

[@JJJLongHair4u2c]

This is so beautiful! Thank you for sharing.

[@fionafornarina]

I made it today. Really easy on the head but a bit difficult to make. I needed 7 spin pins to secure it. 😊

[@kaliz]

Very pretty. I definitely have to try this. Hopefully the bobby pins will hold in place this time, my hair is so smooth and silk like that they always slide out.

[@ender2d210]

I would never really wear that style out to anywhere but I think with less hair like my length and altering it a tad to make it more modern ish. So thanks for the start of an idea for my hair.

[@KristinaBallerina]

ender2d210 I developed this style when I was a classically trained professional ballet dancer, and it was beyond perfect for that. Hope you found a way to adapt it that suited your style. (So sorry, I forgot about this old account and I had no idea all these replies were here!)

[@amilindaable]

Awesome, that was beautiful, can't wait to try it out :0) Im gonna have to put my extensions in for thickness. Thanks for the idea. Fabulous!!!! Your hair looked good enough to eat (cinnamon roll)

[@fuhnnypaul016]

this looks very nice! I will try it with my hair. Nice work, even without a mirror!

[@iwuvitasassak]

This is amazing and beautiful, i loved trying it!

[@NorryaParsa]

@CinnamonCurls That is beyond beautiful!! And your hair's strength to handle that work is stunning!!! Please tell me what you do to get your hair that long and healthy...

[@KristinaBallerina]

Norrya Parsa thank you! My hair just grows decently long naturally, and I take care of it rather well (I don't wash it all that often, and keep it slathered in oil, and up on my head and not rubbing on my back all day). (So sorry, I lost access to the account and I had no idea all these replies were here!)

[@OldWorldNobility]

I wish I had the patience to grow my hair long, I would love to be able to do this sort of thing. Mine is a pixie cut. Sassy, but not so beautifully feminine as yours. I am in awe.

[@PurdyBear1]

Amazing video, I just love your hairstyles.

[@mB099s]

and all without a mirror. someone is a champ.

[@PranatiDarbhe]

WOW REALLY NICE EASY TO WEAR AND LOOK GORGEOUS!!

[@realartprinter]

i like it so much, i have no words to explain that how much i like it. very very simple n easy, nice nice nice

[@dragons7764]

Very cool hairstyle - great way to put up your hair if it's long & thick. Very "Elizabethan era" looking

[@loveu4life100]

That is a big bun! but it's beautiful. Can it only be used on long hair?

[@nazaninka]

you are talented and what you did is very beautiful.

[@tornickin]

Your ginger hair is beautiful.

[@RavenReedStarr]

I need to work of the patience to try this. It is a lovely updo!

[@cniska]

My goodness that is intense! It looks very nice. I'm sure my arms would get tired doing this :)

[@zeniamarshallofficial]

Beautiful! Is it possible for shorter, flat, layered hair?

[@anneglitz]

I JUST HAVE ONE WORD TO DISCRIBE THIS... PERFECT...I LOVED

[@BitchesandBullets]

I absolutley love this !! :D its looks amazing and so easy to do .

[@KristinaBallerina]

TheAngeltears99 thank you! (So sorry, I lost access to the account and Google won't help me retrieve my password, I had no idea all these replies were here!)

[@SuperBrilliantbrunet]

Beautiful bun! Can you show us exactly what length and brand name of hair pins you use to make this bun? Are they the 3" Amish hair pins? Thanks so much! Can't wait to try this, but need to purchase some hair pins first so I want to make sure I get the right ones! ;D So I just watched your video again and you used 34 hairpins! Are these the MennoniteMaidens thick 3 inch hairpins on Etsy? Thanks!

[@KristinaBallerina]

Pearls, Curls & Bluejeans Hello!! I lost access to this account and forgot about this video, soooo sorry! They were just the basic Goody hair pins, basically the same thing as 3" Amish pins, but not their steel color.

[@SoNiceThings]

Wow! This Hair and the coulor! Amazing. Did you count the pins?

[@Emmajen]

This is absolutely incredible! I'll definitely be trying this in the summer. :)

[@KristinaBallerina]

Emma Dilemma how did it go? (So sorry, I lost access to the account and I had no idea all these replies were here!)

[@XOpheliaX2]

tnat looks so so awesome!!! i have rather short hair, will it work on short hair?

[@elizabettym]

Great job!! Beautiful!

[@hippeastrum]

Beautiful, elegant.

[@pau2680]

Me encantó el peinado,pero lo que mas me gustó es lo fácil que es.

[@texasgidget1]

I think it is a beautiful bun and I'm going to try it on my daughter!

[@KristinaBallerina]

Tracey Walton thanks so much, this is the only way I like to do my hair for performing! (So sorry, I lost access to the account and I had no idea all these replies were here!)

[@TheNat2341]

this is the sort of music i listen too

[@Oscitant_Otter]

Lovely hairstyle!!! I am definitely going to try this! And, though some of these comments are funny, there are only 30 pins being used. XD

[@MsHobgobblin]

ich hab das an weihnachten nochmal probiert. vorher rutschen die Strähnen immer. da bin ich auf die Idee gekommen sie zu flechten. Voila hat funktioniert. habs noch etwas witzig mit kleinen Weihnachtskugeln dekoriert. meine mum fand es total toll. danke dir für die Inspiration.

[@zilvervisje]

I love this bun!! Such a good idea :-D Thanks very much for the video

[@Ashley51168]

Wow! You have so MUCH hair. I wish I had enough hair to do this.

[@Emillysilly]

very beautiful and I love the music too! :)

[@MultiMahrukh]

waooooo!!! you have done an amazing work there and looking good too BRAVOOOOOOOOOOO

[@ValkyrieVal3]

That looks appropriately indestructible for ballet

[@TheSweetified]

woww... you have a lot of hair. i like the bun thought!!! :)

[@Princessdreamer21]

Beautiful! I love it!

[@aecronominiens]

Lots of pins with that kinda long hair of course. but bravo that was the most nicest bun i ever see.

[@KristinaBallerina]

Jenifer Andrew thank you! It's hard to get a solid and flat bun with that much hair that will withstand a two hour long ballet performance! (So sorry, I forgot about this old account and I had no idea all these replies were here!)

[@peace43ver]

I would love to know what type of hair pins you are using I can't seem to find ones that stay in my hair for ballet

[@KristinaBallerina]

peace43ver these are just the basic 2 1/2"? Goody hair pins, not bobby pins, but the U shaped ones that are open on the ends. They make longer ones 4-5" which I just tend to use on the outer coils as otherwise there is just *waaaayyyy* too much metal under my hair, lol. (So sorry, I lost access to the account and Google won't help me retrieve my password)

[@lunareclipse601]

This just looks awesome I can't wait to try it!

[@emgrace5702]

Pretty I love it ........dang that is a lot of hair.......wish mine was that long :) -3

[@greeneyedbaby18]

Wow, that is one crAzy bun!

[@alondralabute4434]

Wow that's amazing. You'd have to have very thick hair to do this but I could probably pull off a reasonable facsimile of it.

[@rosey4exclaim]

Absolutely beautiful!

[@syedaaliya9065]

OH MY GOD,,,,,,,,its so beautiful ..thank u so much

[@KristinaBallerina]

[@Mokhtarito22]

Toll !!! Du hast wunderschöne Haare !!!

[@kidfrom1981]

Im a guy and I must admit, you got some mad skills... 2 thumbs ^

[@BreezesofConey]

@Zippedychick They're called hair pins. Note a difference between bobby pin and hair pin, as well as the term "hairpin curve" on a road. These were used long before bobby pins. I have three inch celluloid ones from the 19th century.

[@TheHynote]

Oh man that's a lot of twists... Bet it looks cool when you take it out

[@KristinaBallerina]

TheHynote the coils just actually look like weird curly sausages or something. More tentacles and snake looking. (So sorry, I lost access to the account and I had no idea all these replies were here!)

[@lovla1]

You should make more tutorials, dear! They are lovely and VERY helpful!

[@KristinaBallerina]

Sadie Collins I will try! I did another video of a three strand bun, but be careful you'll get a neck ache as back then you couldn't flip videos and KZbin uploaded it sideways!! (So sorry, I forgot about this old account and I had no idea all these replies were here!)

[@scsublett21]

That looks very complacated!

[@Emilonghairedatheart]

Great idea!! Gotta try this!

[@aaadny]

beautiful! but did you count how many hairpins did you use?

[@ronjaice]

Got a mohawk. But love to watch those awesome tutorials. And right now i wish my hair was waiste long lol

[@bhelliom3]

I am definitely going to have to try this next time I have about 40 bobbypins at hand.

[@dragons7764]

@14kDiamonds I love the music in this video - do you happen to know what composer this is & the name of the piece?

[@SuicidesEve]

absolutely beautiful!

[@cherrycoma13]

omg, you must have SO much hair lol looks great!

[@KristinaBallerina]

cherry coma thanks so much! (So sorry, I forgot about this old account and I had no idea all these replies were here!)

[@MrsBrit1]

How long is your hair? I've decided to let my TBL hair grow, just to see how long it'll go. A new bun is good to have. I think I'd try using less pins, but I guess it might make the next twist bunch under the last one. Thanks for a nifty, pretty protective looking bun idea!

[@KristinaBallerina]

MrsBrit1 I think it was TBL or classic when I did this, it usually grows down to my thighs before I trim, it up. Yes, sadly it needs this many pins as the coils start to wander and overlap and slide under each other. I use a ton more when it's for performance as I can't have chunks of my hair flying around! (So sorry, I forgot about this account and I had no idea all these replies were here!)

[@GracieRedd]

How many bobby pins did it take to do that?? and your hair is VERRRRY beautiful :)

[@felikate]

i love this! i do this for dance practice now!

[@missa1663]

c'est magnifique j 'ai adorée et la musique convient parfaitement

[@MsCurious2see]
