fechan I spent a whole afternoon and most of an evening working mostly on that cursed bun. I thought I would die!!
I like how it turned out though (even if it's a bit crooked and kinda bigger than I expected)

I made the bun using a Styrofoam ball cut in half and carved in to better fit the shape of my head for base. I glued (with loooots of caulk) wefted extensions onto the bottom and wrapped it around the bun more or less randomly. I braided sections of the extensions.
