Sleek Bun by @styledbygracevictoria

Sleek ponytails are probably the most popular hairstyle for oily hair. However, if you get a headache from ponytails or simply want an extra elegant hairstyle, you can turn a sleek ponytail into a sleek bun. Divide your ponytail into two strands and tie them together as if you were tying your shoes. Finish by securing the bun with bobby pins.
