A hybrid of styles, when carefully crafted, adds interest and flair, especially when it comes to hair. The braided bun look allows wearers to sport the best of two all-time favorite classics: the single french braid and the bun. The styling tools and products required are minimal, and the style can be done quickly, making this an excellent choice for those who have busy lives but still want to look and feel feminine.
Installing the Braid
The braid at the back is an important feature of this hairstyle. To get started with installing your braid, first part your hair into two sections by separating it across your scalp from one ear to the other. Take the front section of hair and pin it up so that it will stay out of the way while you braid the back. Next, comb the back section of hair in order to make sure that there are no tangles. Braid the hair starting at the nape of the neck up towards the crown. Once the part line is reached, secure the braid using a ponytail holder.
Creating the Bun
Unpin the front section of hair and comb it back towards the ponytail. Using a second ponytail holder. Grasp the hair of the front section along with the hair left loose from the braid and secure them together. Comb through the hair again to ensure it is smooth, then twist it and wrap it around the base of the ponytail, creating the bun. Secure the bun in place using either bobby pins or a second ponytail holder.
The braided bun is an elegant updo that is suitable for almost any occasion. If you are planning to wear this style to a formal affair, then consider letting a professional hair stylist at Total Image Hair Designs in Dunedin, Florida handle your new look.
