Step-by-step guide: Create your messy bun
-
Prep your hair : Apply texturizing spray or dry shampoo to the roots. Work the product in for extra hold.
-
Gather and twist : Pull hair back, twist it loosely around your fingers to form a knot.
-
Secure with Tangled Scrunchie : Thread the scrunchie over the knot and adjust so it sits securely.
-
Create volume : Gently pull out sections of the knot for a natural, messy look.
-
Secure if necessary : Use a few discreet hair pins if the scrunchie slips.
Adaptations for different hair types
-
Fine/thin hair : Use extra texturizing spray and avoid pulling too hard. Two wraps of scrunchie can give more volume.
-
Thick hair : Divide into two sections, tie the middle section first. Then distribute the rest around the scrunchie.
-
Curly hair : Maintain definition by gently twisting. Add a drop of hair oil to the ends.
-
Straight hair : Build texture with dry shampoo at the roots. Finish with volumizing mousse for extra hold.
Troubleshooting: Common Problems & Solutions
-
The scrunchie slips out : Alternative technique – twist the knot an extra turn before attaching the scrunchie, or use a wax stick at the roots.
-
Uneven volume : Try two scrunchies in different sizes or colors. Adjust by loosening and pulling out more loops.
-
The knot is too tight : Make a looser twist and pull in several steps until the desired sloppiness is achieved.
Styling variants & accessories

Color combinations : Two scrunchies in contrasting colors for a playful look.
