Here’s a new hairstyle tutorial that’s perfect for the holidays. This curved braid bun is really simple and is an elegant twist on the low bun.
This bun is formed by curving a low braid around into a bun. It works in both curly and straight hair and I love how this shows off the new colours in my hair.
I was playing around with some braids when I tried this loose bun and loved the look. It’s perfect for wearing with a statement necklace or earrings for party.
Curved braid bun hairstyle tutorial
Step-by-step
- Braid your hair. Split your hair into three equal sections and make a basic braid (plait).
- Secure the end of your braid with a small clear hair elastic. The small elastics are easier to hide in the finished styles.
- Curve your braid up and around to form your bun. Tuck the end of your braid inside and pin your bun in place with bobby pins.
Hairstyle variations
This simple bun hairstyle can be varied in so many ways to create so many different looks.
- Instead of a basic braid, try a fishtail braid for a more detailed look.
- For a simpler twist, try a two strand rope braid.
- For longer hair, you can continue the spiral around and make a larger bun.
