I LIKE BIG BUNS AND I CANNOT LIE.
In fact, someone once told me that the SECRETS OF THE UNIVERSE are tucked safely inside my bun. You could say, I'm the Forest Gump of buns:
I can rock a top bun, bottom bun, low bun, high bun, to-the-side bun, all-the-way-to-the-front bun, right bun, left bun, twisted bun, braided bun, messy bun, clean bun, pristine bun, single bun, twin buns, triple buns, quadruple buns, and some buns it's just impossible to name. I should probably keep a catalogue of all the bun variations I've managed to create. I'm like a bun architect.
Plain and simple, I'M A BUN MASTER. Which brings me to ONE OF THE THINGS I'M MOST EXCITED TO DISCOVER SINCE ARRIVING IN BALI: I can fit all of my buns into a motorbike helmet! Praise God!
I am not exaggerating when I tell you that I LOST SLEEP over what I would do with my hair if I couldn't put it in a bun while living here. My major and best hairstyle is some kind of bun, because it's low-maintenance and humidity-resistant. However, the major and best mode of transportation here is motorbike, so there is no getting around having to use the motorbike taxis, and eventually driving one. I ride my bike around my neighborhood, but for longer distances, or travel on major highways, motorbike it is.
So yeah, I'M SO HAPPY that all my different hairstyles can fit in a helmet. It's a touch of BLACK GIRL MAGIC I guess, because I just put a scarf on it, smoosh it in there, and when I take that helmet and scarf off, it pops right back into place.
And BOOM, my hair is still Bali beautiful!
