Messy Bun Mess [SEP] This messy bun is made from synthetic hair and comes with 2 black nylon-like stretchy bands and 10 black bobby pins. Right out of the package, the messy bun was true to its name. It was a mess! It took awhile to find the tousled strands (which I've included a close-up shot of one where it's held into its tousle with a tiny clear rubberband). I sorted through the bun and pulled all of the longer parts through one end so they might hang better for a natural look.<br /><br />I wear my hair in messy buns a lot, but I just can't get this hairpiece to look good on my head. I believe that the color does play a small role in my dissatisfaction, as the top of my hair is much more blonde BUT the underside of my natural hair that I pull up IS much darker and matches the shade of the brown tones much better.<br /><br />Unfortunately, the entire design of the bun just doesn't work well on my thin hair. The photos I've shared are of it secured around a bun of my hair with a few bobby pins. I think this piece might work better for people who have thicker hair. I also suggest trying to match the top layer of hair rather than the underside that you pull up if your hair is darker underneath like mine.
