Hello friends, I selected this set of four magic bun makers in black for bun making.This comes with a set of four individually wrapped hair bun makers. Each bun maker is in a nutshell two slap bracelets joined together in opposite directions with ends of ribbon glued to them. They have a dark ultra thin thread that is wound around them. In order to use them you have to have straight hair or lightly wavy hair. They will be a challenge for curly hair. They are also a challenge for anyone who has layers in their hair. It wants you to have your hair straight and spread out. This is hard to do if your hair is really long. You may need a friend to help. My hair is medium length and it was very difficult to do it according to the directions starting at the bottom of the length of your hair. Doing it at the bottom of the hair causes the bun to appear at the bottom of your head which may or may not be desired. I figured out a way to get it up on top of my head. I brushed my hair with my head down and then pulled it together onto my hand as if I was about to make a ponytail. I then very carefully place the ends of my hair between the two slap bracelets and smash them together, then rolled my hair up until it hit the base of my head. Then very carefully I released the slap bracelets. You need to be really careful with them because boy do they smack hard. I then pulled my hair around to the edges that were exposed and it created a perfect ballerina bun. I can see how with some trial and error and experience this can make a really fast bun on your head. I do have a few hairs that are pulling on my head but the bun is not hurting my head. I like that it's not coming out of a ponytail but is loosely up there yet secure. It looks pretty nice. The instructions weren't the greatest but I figured it out. Happy hair styling.
