Why it worked

The video likely resonated with viewers due to its relatable struggle with a common beauty task and the creator's authentic, humorous reaction to her 'hair fail.' The use of a novel, visually interesting hair tool also likely captured attention.

Summary

The creator attempts to style her hair into a bun using a spiral hair tie, which she purchased on Amazon. She struggles with the process, finding that only a ponytail with a scrunchie works for her, and expresses frustration with her inability to create a bun.
