I'm not sure why the hair forms those spheres. I could see putting a small band right at the ends and then pushing those banded ends up into the sphere, if that makes sense. Simply molding them into spheres, possibly with a sticky product, might work as well.

Obviously this woman had a pretty decent amount of length and thickness. Shorter and/or thinner hair would need more sections, I think.

My $0.02...

These up-do's are GORGEOUS!!

I so wish I could see the back. I need to start learning how to do these tuck styles - the bun gets kind of tired when it's the only up-do I can figure out

MmmmHmmm.

How can anyone say that there's anything wrong with natural hair? Especially when it looks so right!

I agree!! This is why I love these types of threads as well as the 'How are you wearing your hair today' threads. I thoroughly enjoy looking at OUR hair.
