But I used to do sock buns all the time when I was a new mom and they never looked like that. You don't need to use one of those big foam donuts (in fact I advise against it) -- you can literally use a sock with the toe cut out and rolled up. You don't want something massive in there, just something to roll the hair around. Then minimal bobby pins, just enough to secure it in place (four is about right for me, as I don't have super think hair). I think it looks best on second or third day hair and a little texture is good -- not frizz but just kind of "dirty hair" texture so it doesn't look too perfect. Depending on your head shape it can look good at the nape of the neck, though this doesn't work for me. I look best with hit basically on the top of my head.
Also ir helps to do the whole thing upside down because then you can skip the brush and maintain your texture. just finger come it into the pony tail and roll it into the sock or whatever you are using before lifting your head back up. I think this keeps it from looking unkempt without requiring brushing or product.
Thanks! This sounds like what I was thinking. Everyone is probably right that my hair won't really reach a high one yet, but it is very thick, so I think I can do a low one. Do you roll the sock up or just smooth the hair around the sock and use a hair tie and then twist the ends around?

Bun doughnut tool. I use it in my two year olds hair for her dance class.

Same - I have shoulder length hair and make a high ponytail and then pull my hair halfway through to make a loop, which I fan/spread out a bit. It looks full, but there isn’t anything inside it. I often add a hairpiece over it to make it look fuller and add curl — something like this, but what I bought was revlon from sally. I often get compliments, people do not know it’s fake because it matches

These look like nasty fake rat pieces. Do you have a link to one that looks good?
They all look fake because they are not real hair. Just like bad plastic surgery, no one is going to confront PP and ask what that nasty thing is she has on her head.

You need a bun maker doo dad of some sort to help. I like the bun bar from pony o for a high bun and the Carlin by mihoko for a low bun.

The only women I know that do this are either dance moms or military. And yes they look fake
You need to get out more.
