ArucariaBallerina Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Hi and happy new year! My favourite bun net has been discontinued sadly and I have tried a few brands of bun nets which are either too flimsy and don’t stick to the hair, or cannot wrap around my hair more than once! I’m wondering does anyone have any recommendations for a bun net which is elastic but tight when wrapped around, say, 2-3 times? So not too big or too small if that makes sense. Preferably a style that doesn’t rip too easily too (always happens on days when my bun needs to be perfect)! thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna C Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Bunheads Invisible Hairnets. You get three for around £1.50. You can get them from Capezio and loads of places sell them online. They come in lots of different shades too: https://www.capezioeurope.com/hair-nets 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peanut68 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Always found Lion Brand good.... I buy in bulk on Amazon.... search putting in yourcpreferred hair colour. What was the brand you have liked in past out if interest? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Lion-Hair-Bun-Nets-Medium/dp/B01LR4KBII/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?keywords=bun+nets+light+brown&qid=1578005450&sprefix=bun+nets+&sr=8-1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruby Foo Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Boots. 2 fine hair nets (as opposed to the bun nets, which are not big enough). Wrap round twice. 2 shades of brown, black and blonde. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peanut68 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 (edited) Would agree that if you have a large bun (lucky you if you have the sort of long lush locks that make for a heavy large bun!) then maybe buy full hairnets to go around securely 2/3 times.... again Lion Brand sell these Edited January 2, 2020 by Peanut68 Typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dancing unicorn Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 (edited) I agree Lion Brand are favourite with us too and buying in bulk also! Dd usually uses 1 or 2 at once! Using holed ones under new til can’t be used any more! Edited January 3, 2020 by Dancing unicorn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixiewoo Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Lion brand in bulk here too! Although DD is now preferring hairnets from boots, wilko or bunhead ( when I'm ordering dance stuff online! ) they seem to last well ... she just loses them!

balletgremlin Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 I use Bloch hair nets (again, not bun nets) - they come in a pack of three and they keep my waist length hair under control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep - that’s what we do too.... keep reusing holed one under ‘good’ one seems to give enough added bun stability whilst making those pennies go further 👍🏻 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArucariaBallerina Posted January 6, 2020 Author Share Posted January 6, 2020 Thanks everyone, I have ordered some Bunheads and Bloch ones to arrive at school and hopefully they'll do the trick! (Will keep other suggestions in mind if they don't) . I have longish hair (just had it cut) but it's really thick and wavy and crazy with lots of shorter flyaways. Have to gel it down everyday to make it slick! My favourite brand was originally a German (I think) brand called Solida, they used to do a thick elastic, stretchy but tight invisible bun net which rarely got holes (I still have one from a year ago haha) but they've discontinued the model and now only make ones that barely wrap around the bun and are too delicate if that makes sense. I like a net to wrap around 2-3 times and no more or less so maybe I'm too picky! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Brown Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Home bargains used to do fantastic ones but they seem to have discontinued them in my local branch. Worth a look though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
