Yes. Some product links on this site are Amazon affiliate links. Purchases through those links may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. I only recommend products I use in my own tutorials.
Why does my messy bun fall out? +
Usually the hair is too clean and slippery, or pins are placed on the surface instead of anchoring the twist. Start with texture at the crown, pin the base in an X pattern, and see the full how-to messy bun tutorial on this blog.
