What's a Banana Bun? — Edith & June

As americans, we love french style. It’s easy, it’s cool, it’s flowy and neutral, and best of all- effortless when it comes to beauty. French girls are especially lax when it comes to their hair, so we’ve heard from french stylists and bloggers. Wake up, shake it out, apply some product and you’re out the door.

But on those days when maybe your hair is just a little too untamed- that’s when a simple style like the banana bun comes in. Below, we’ve curated the best pictures of this messy, tangly, bun, along with the products you’ll need to achieve it. Viola!

IGK Body Oil Finishing Spray, $29  Sephora.com — **IGK Body Oil Finishing Spray, $29** *Sephora.com*

For this sleek take on the BB, simply smooth down hair with a bit of an oil finishing spray and then put your hair in a low ponytail, leaving out some hair on the right side. Then, taking the loose hair, twist and pin around the ponytail until you are satisfied with the look.

Drybar Detox Dry Shampoo, $23 Ulta.com — **Drybar Detox Dry Shampoo, $23** *Ulta.com*

This version is more of a wrap twist take on the bun, and using a hair tool like this one from conair may be easier to put on the nape of your neck and then wrap the hair upwards around.

Verb Sea Texture Cream, $14 Sephora.com — **Verb Sea Texture Cream, $14** *Sephora.com*

For this style, use a dollop of texture cream to give your hair that sea salted look. Then simply split hair in two and wrap around into a small bun while leaving majority of your looks free.

Amika UnDone Texture Spray, $24 Birchbox.com — **Amika UnDone Texture Spray, $24** *Birchbox.com*

The easiest of the banana bun styles we’ve seen, this version is a knot type twist with lots of free hairs and volume.
