For anyone wondering what hair tie I use for this, it's the TIY hair ties. Linked here: bit.ly/3tJF7gr

I've come to appreciate how skilled women are at this. They make it look so easy

It doesn't seem to matter how many times I watch this but my hands just don't do it right

bro I’ve been trying to do this for 30 mins and I keep failing lol why is it so difficult

Yo that flick technique legit took 30 min to figure out, gassed my shoulders, and had me cussing in a mirror... but once I got it down the rest wasn't bad and I ended up with real dirty highball. Stoked to better get with this technique and less pumped in the shoulders. Great video. Cheers!

Yep! my hairs' past my shoulders and I can confirm that messy wild buns are where' it's at, always love it have tried other styles but just come back to the good ol' messy bun with lots of texture/volume. I like mine best when it's really central and right at the crown. Your 100% with having to flick your whole head down to position the hair correctly, then flipping it through the hair-tie. I use large head bands because I've got alot of thick hair that doesn't fit in a small elastic. I love my hair and I can always appreciate a good man bun when I spy one!

i woke up 40mins earlier everyday just to tie a decent bun, and sometimes I failed to do so, and this guy literally just did it in 3 secs.

bro when i do the flick i end up holding the hair tue wrong, how is it above ur fingers?? i juet end up holding it

This has got to be the absolute, 100% most frustrating thing, ive ever tried to do in my life.

This makes no sense to me no matter how many times I try.

Growing my hair out for the first time, just want to say thanks! For giving ppl like me the confidence to rocking out the long hair/man bun

Thank you very much trav I’m a visual learner so this helped a lot👌👏will definitely try this hairstyle

thank you so much for this video. i let my hair grow during the pandemic. a time the lazy loop was fine but now my hair reaches almost halfway down my back. and the simple lazy loop was just so aweful but i had no idea how to do it right took me like 4 tires and now looks great, not perfect because i was just washing my hair but i am very pleased. an hour of practice later and now it goes actually very easy. thanks man, made my day!

after 2 weeks of stiff neck, i finally did it. the hardest part is the "flick" and the "grab" right after. thank you so much for the tutorial!

Been trying this off and on since you posted Trav, and it FINALLY clicked!!! Thanks!!!

Man this is so helpful. To me tying my hair back is like trying to untangle the Christmas lights. It's tedious and frustrating and I somehow end up wrapping it around something else I didn't intend to!

I watched this a few times and it does not make any sense to my brain

I've had real difficulty with this (not just your videos, trav!). My sister put this up for me in seconds! So I've gone a bit rogue; for now I'm grabbing my hair, tying a traditional ponytail by twisting the tie over into a figure 8 shape w/ the tail in one of the holes and then pulling a little over a half (or the majority for a bigger bun) of my remaining hair halfway through the 'other' hole in the figure 8. If you get me? You can actually repeat this, depending on length, 3 or 4 times to tighten as long as you pull the majority through the hole at the end. It's a really basic bun. Not as cool but I can tug at it to make it messier, I can make it higher or lower on my head and if I throw my head forward and tie it there I get like, a lazy top-knot, though it doesn't suit me. Edit: I'm not used to this kind of styling and it was this sort of experimenting that let me eventually nab the cooler bun in the video. Improving my hand coordination, knowing what will & won't work etc

Fourth time am letting my hair grow... there's something with that "twist" move that is magic... my hair hasn't reach my shoulders yet on thus new hair journey... I do that twist and my bun seems like my hair is super long...like...people think that to get that cool bun your hair obviously needs to be long...but no! I also observed that I feel my roots better comfy with that twist which make me feel like it helps it grow faster?...for this I don't know if it's just a feeling or if it's real...but yeah that TWIST is magic in many aspect

I finally pulled it off! I had to use a second tie to tie around the bun to reinforce it (as I used an older, stretched tie for the attempt and wasn't overly confident with the 'flick' - more of a 'lift', ha) but it held all day and I was totally proud and confident. Thanks a lot! ❤

Thanks bro this video was really helpful.. I got it first try the second loop just pull halfway through then last loop normal I didn't have to listen to your description got it by watching back view thanks again

2 years trying different things to make my bun look like this, but always failed. THANK YOU SO MUCH MAN!

I've been looking for content on how to style long mens hair for a while and I found just that with your fantastic content! Thanks! I just subbed to you!

Thanks man! Took way too many tries and broken hairs but I finally got it mostly right.

man, I was looking for a new bun style. I knew you'd deliver

wtf you make it look easier than it is…. I’m saving this video” I’m just gonna keep watching I love the way you style it !.

Dude, you have just changed my life, lol. Thank you so much for this tutorial 👍🏻

Dude you are literally the first person to ever teach me how to accurately tie a bun like this. I’ve watched so many dumb videos, and have even had many different chicks show me with no success. You are fucking dope thanks haha

Hey Trav, Trav here. This is a game changer, thank you for the amazing video!

This is what i’ve been looking for, nice

Thanks man, really helpful. I also got it in my first try.

Thank you, just what i needed. ❤💪

The man bun is done hun! Thank god

I was not aware that my wrist and fingers are that flexible Thank you very much for this enlightening video.

Beautiful hair! I'm envious.

Thank you Trav, the video helped me a lot to tie my hair in a way that looks good 🙌 Sorry if my English is bad, I'm not English speaker hehe

I feel really dumb. I've been trying this for about a 100th time and still can't do it. 😅

Great vid very helpful. I am finding when I tie my hair up the ties pull out quite a bit and break my hair. Any tips or suggested hair ties?

Great! Very useful. Thank you. However, how much damage does such a tight tie do to hair?

Hey Trav! I recommend to tie the upper half of the hair and let the bottom hang. Then bust out the hair loopies just like Katara! 😆🤜🏼🌊

I'm not sure I did it exactly like you showed here but I think I still got it up in a decent bun by attempting to follow along haha, thanks

Amazing job of showing us exactly nothing of what the hands are actually doing

It looks super cool on you by the way

This is the best looking man bun style for a man imo.

I’ve tried many times and lost a bunch of hairs doing this, can’t seems to follow after the first twist with the thumb as the thumb is mostly not visible among the hairs after that part, is it under the band or over it?

This is a cool look I always shoot for. I been using a high pony than twisting while wrapping and inserting a toothy bobby-pin at the end. Makes it much easier to take out with less tangling before bed.

OMG FINALLY, THANK YOU.

Thanks Trav !

after 2 weeks of stiff neck and wrist pain, i finally done it. hahaha thanks

Thank you mate, I have basically the same hair as you (same length and thickness), have been trying for a long time to get it right and did it

Alright Ive watched this about 39 times in .25, What you should take away; twist your hair ALONG with the first twist of your hair tie. Also the second twist if you can/need to. That's literally all that's different here, the hair AND the hair tie, you twist both at once.

I haven’t been able to do it myself since this video was released

For anyone wondering this works, its a very simple and quick way for a great bun.

This method is so tricky but it looks good every time

Hey Trav! Was curious as to what shampoo and conditioner you use on the regular now. Still OGX tea tree? Or can you do a video soon on your current washing method. I have very similar hair to you just lighter and chin length. Thanks in advance for all your advice.

Wish i can control the video with voice control since both my hands are up in the air attempting this. Thank you for the video, how often do you cut your hair? And how long do you aim for?

It’s so easy to do a pony tail but super hard to put it in a man bun 😩 great video btw!!

Thanks, I'll try it.

Can’t wait to try this In a year and a half 😆

The hardest tutorial i'd ever seen

Man I seriously love you and your content ... Great work and keep it up man

Finally something that works

Cool tutorial but I only have hair on the top, the sides and back are shaved to the skin. My hair is currently down to the top of my shoulders when combed back, generally either platted or in a small top bun. Bun for sunny hot days to get my head tanned evenly lol. Thank you, great slow mo tutorial 😃👍

Everytime i look for ways to put my hair up the peoples hair is always WAY longer than mine. This one actually helps

Not a fuckin chance lmao This is a great example of making difficult shit look easy Kudos brother

hey trav , you should make a video about drying wet hair after washing it . just an idea , thanks

I got this finally, after how many times I've watched this. Don't think of it as a 3 loop thing, even if it is, think of it as a 2 loop tie.

Highball??? Is this a Longhairs colab??? Let's get D.I.A.L.E.D boys!!

Is there any way to increase hair density mate? I'm growing for 3 yrs now. Shedded a stupid lot in between during 2020 due to stress. Now I've stopped hairfall to an extent by controlling my stress levels. But can't get the scalp back to its normal form.

Thank you for the ultra slowmo! Really helped out trying to understand all the loops and twists.

Should you trim the sdes slightly to get rid of the fly always?

Trav, in a different video you mention not getting your hair wet after working out as you do not get that sweaty. I am a runner so after 5 miles my scalp is drenched, how would you recommend rinsing in order to mitigate damage from daily hair rinsing?

Ladies can nail this kind of stuff all day long. I am getting ready for Mass right now and I'm struggling hard. Anyways, thanks for the tips 😅

i got so close but now i have to head of to school when i get back though i’m gonna try nail it

I've already done that in my LongHair. Simple but looks fresh and good👍🏼

Thank you first try❤

Thank you so much 🤩

This is so easy. Heck yes

Glad to see I wasn’t the only one who found it impossible to do this

I have some shorter bbay hairs on my neck that don't quite fit in the bun. What can I do with that?

Thank you, my real hair right now is about Billy Joe Armstrong of Green Day in 21 Guns. So I wear wigs for now and this was helpful 😊

I lost you at the second step lol

@Trav White May i know how long is your hair at the moment?

Dope, thanks

Okay that looks good for outing. Tell me how to manage them at home

Got super curly 😹 please do a video hair styles for curly hair 🖤

Honestly just thinking about cutting my hair at this point. I love my long hair and I’ve been growing it for about 4 years but it just gets in the way a lot of the time and I can’t put it up for the life of me. No matter what I try I just can’t seem to do it.

Hey Trav, been following your vids for 1 year and I can't tell you how much I've learnt about hair! However there is something I haven't found about in tour channel: doctor just recommended me to start swimming 4-5 days a week. What can I do to avoid needing to clean my hair every time I swim? I got used to cleaning my hair 1-2 times a week and I'm afraid swimming will make my hair greasy again and needing to use shampoo way to often. Any tips?

My hair is hella curly and long, so ive need this😭😅

been watchng this video for 3 days now and everyday I have to do something different to this like using another hair tie... bit hard to understand what you actually do after the flick of the hair

Alright imma try another style 🥲

I been growing my hair for 4 years and just now learning how to hide the extra hair . My is curly so it makes it difficult to handle at times

Head bobbing to the background music instead of paying attention, gotta rewatch now

Are there any cons to having a flat bun? Because I think it would suit me better.

I just can’t figure this one out, that flick thing is getting me

what gel u use?

I actually GOT IT! Except my hair is down to the middle of my back so I think I need to pull the hair down further right before the second knot. I’ll try, I’ll update Nope, pulling more of my hair through right before the 2nd twist as you pull over the bun didn’t work. My problem is I can’t find a way to put up my hair not that it’s super long. I have hella wavy, thick hair. Like you said, I wash my hair about once a week. Sometimes longer or sorter depending on how “bad” oily it starts to look. Put it this way, I can look my hair through a normal just bun where you just flip it through twice, well I can flip it through 3 times and make a small hard knotted bun thst I pull out quite a bit and it still stays up and is the messy look I’m going for problem is, even after 3 loops and pulling my bun apart to make it look a little bigger. I still have 8+ inches of hair just hanging ontop of my head still. What part of this hairstyle do i have to do differently because my hair is soo much longer? After. Do it I’m still left with 8” or so of hair hanging out. Alirght well my 5 try to so and I got it. Still had some long hair hanging out but I pulled more of my hair through right before the twist and over the bun, I my think this hair tie is too loose. I’ve got not been using it for 3 days but like I said my id really wavy some cury so I think it’s too stretched out from the way I was putting it up before. I locked it in it’s just mad loose once I let go. It holds but just droops a bit. Thanks bro I’ve been looking for a way to put my hair up that’s not hard asf got the last 6 months since my hair went from a 3 loop and no length hanging off to a 3 loop and mad length still not in the bun. Thanks bro!

I have butt-length hair. Does this method still work for really long hair?

The key is really the right tie for your hair.

No way I can repeat this haha
