1. Fishtail Braided Chignon
We love this elegant fishtail braided bun hairstyle for a fun workweek look. To start, use a little TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Serum to smooth out any frizz or flyaways. Then, create a side fishtail braid, and coil it into a low or side bun.
2. Twisted Pretzel Bun
If you love braided bun styles, and you want the intricate look of a braided bun, but without creating a three-strand braid (or fishtail braid) try out this awesome pretzel bun. When you get down to it, this style is actually super simple. Start off by setting your hair into a low ponytail. Then, split that ponytail into two sections, wrapping the sections around each other to create a sort of rope braid. Then, take your rope braid and wrap it into a bun! You’ll get this super interesting style, no complicated braiding necessary.
3. Braided Space Buns
We love these simple and chic space buns. They’re super cute braids and buns, or buns with braids! To create a space bun with braids, you’ll need to start by parting your hair down the center. To get the super slicked down look, apply the Nexxus New York Salon Care Exxtra Hold Sculpting Gel to the roots of your hair. It’s like outer space chic! Then take the two sections of hair and do a three-strand braid all the way down. When you’re done braiding, wrap your hair into buns and secure the style with some bobby pins.
