How To Do Braided Buns

Documentation Download Documentation Download Documentation Buns are a terrific way to keep your hair out of your face while still looking stylish. Regardless matter how simple your buns are, you can always incorporate a braid to give your hair a little extra flair. There are several techniques to create a braided bun, and the most of them take only a few minutes to put together!

1. 1 Make a ponytail out of your hair. You don’t have to brush and smooth out your hair in order to get this braided bun look. Make a loose ponytail at the nape of your neck and tie it with a hair tie. Adding volume to your ponytail may be accomplished by squeezing your hair at the top of your head.

• Put your hair in a ponytail and secure it with a clip. For this braided bun, you don’t need to brush and straighten your hair before you start. Tuck the nape of your neck and the back of your neck into a loose ponytail to finish. Adding volume to your ponytail may be accomplished by squeezing your hair at the crown.

• 2 Make a ponytail out of your hair. Make a three-strand braid out of your ponytail for a classic look. braid your hair all the way down to the very bottom of your hairstyle

• It’s quite OK if a few strands of hair fall out as you finish the braid.

• s3 Make a hole in your hair with your fingers. Create a hole in the region of your hair above the ponytail holder with your fingers by rubbing them together. Extend your thumb and pointer finger up and below your ponytail holder so that they peek up vertically through the hole you just made

• Continue to poke your fingers through
• They will eventually become entangled in your braid.

• 4 Fold your hair through the hole and secure it. Lift your braid up with your free hand and bring it up to the two fingers that are peeking out through the opening in the middle of it. Grasp the braid with your two index and middle fingers and draw it through the opening

• Considering that the braid was dragged through the opening, the sides of your hair should be twisted as well.

• 5 Pull your braid through one more. Fold your braid through the opening one more time to secure it. This time, instead of pulling your braid all the way down through the opening, pull it halfway. The braid should be flipped to drag the bulkiest section of it through the hole, and the bottom half of the braid (the tail) should be allowed to fold over on itself within the hole.

• When creating the bun, it is intended that the bulkiest area of the braid be visible for the vast majority of the time.

• 6 Tie the braid in a tight knot. Maintain the position of your braid with one hand while using your other hand to push bobby pins into the sides of your bun. To make the bun seem fluffier and more textured, pull the braided sections apart with your fingertips once it has been fastened in place.

• The fact that the bun is a little sloppy and not perfectly formed is perfectly OK.

1. The fact that the bun is a little sloppy and not perfectly formed is OK.

• The ponytail has to be wrapped up high on your head since you’re putting up a top knot bun.

• 2 Tease the ends of your ponytail. Using a comb, divide your ponytail into two halves. Teasing both portions of your hair, concentrating on the hair closest to the root of the ponytail, will give it a polished look.

• You’ll get the finest results if you tease your hair using a teasing brush or a rat tail comb rather of your fingers. You’ll notice that your braids appear wider and fuller as a result.

• 3Make a braid for each segment. Separate each segment into three strands using a separating tool. Braid each area with a three-strand braid, as seen in the picture. Each braid should be secured at the bottom with a little elastic hair tie. 4 Make the braids a little more interesting by adding some texture. Adding texturizing powder or dry shampoo to your braids and pulling apart the braid plaits is optional, but it will make your braids seem more polished. Pulling the braid plaits apart gently will result in broader, more substantial braids.

• You can simply pull at your braids, loosening and widening them, if you don’t have any texturizing powder or dry shampoo on hand.

• 5 Tie your strands together. Wrap one braided part around the base of your ponytail until it reaches the back of your head, then repeat the process. Make use of a bobby pin to keep that first wrapped braid in place. Wrap the other braided portion around your head in the opposite direction of the first, until it reaches the back of your head (see illustration). Try to arrange this braid below the first braid that has been wrapped around

• For those of you with longer hair, and your braided parts wrap around your head further than the back of your head, you may just fasten the end of the braid wherever it occurs to finish.

• 6 Tie your strands together. Hair spray and bobby pins can be used to fix any stray hairs or bits of hair that have fallen out of the braids.

• A similar-colored set of bobby pins may always be helpful in blending things together.

1. 1 Tease your hair a little. To begin, take a little portion of hair from your crown (approximately a 1-2 inch chunk), and bring it closer to your forehead. Brush this portion of hair back with a light back comb and tease it, then turn it over to the front of your face. Take a little part of hair behind the first portion (again, around a 1-2 inch section), and continue the teasing and back combing steps with that section of hair. Overlap this back combed part of hair with the first segment of hair

• 3-5 sections of hair should be teased and back combed for a decent amount of volume at the top of your head. Flip your entire head of hair back and let it hang naturally

• 2 Tie your hair up in a bun. To begin, divide your hair into three pieces and loosely braid your hair into a conventional three-strand braid, as seen below. Don’t use an elastic ponytail holder to hold the braid together throughout. Instead, just two out of the three strands should be secured.

• It’s quite OK for some sections of hair to fall out of the braids. This braid has a more laid-back feel to it.

1. 3Pull the braid all the way up. Keep hold of the strand of hair that wasn’t secured into the elastic ponytail holder with your other hand. The other two strands that have been attached should be pushed up until they form a bunched basis for the braid. Wrap the bun with plastic wrap and fasten it. Bind the free strand around the braided strands that have been bunched up and secure the bun with bobby pins. You may secure the bun with bobby pins on all four corners to ensure that it remains in place throughout styling. Advertisement

1. 1 Back comb your hair to the back of your head. Use your back comb to comb through a small area of hair at the top of your head (a 1 to 2 inch chunk of hair) and press the hair down with your comb. Transform the rear area of your hair to the front of your face by flipping it around. Take the portion of hair behind the initial section of hair you back combed and back comb that area of hair as well, if necessary.

• Tease and back comb about three to four sections of hair. Afterwards, flip all of your hair back to let it to rest naturally

• 2Section your hair using a comb. Separate your hair into three vertical sections: one for the right side of your head, one for the left side of your head, and one for the centre of your head. 3Braid each part of hair towards the nape of your neck using a ponytail holder
• Tie each section of hair together. Braid each part of hair in a loose three-strand braid to create a classic look. 4 Attach a tiny, elastic hair tie to the end of each braid to keep it in place. Twist and fasten each braid with a hair tie. Hold one braided segment at the bottom near the hair tie with one hand while using the other hand to twist the center portion of the braid with the other hand. The twisting action is quite similar to the motion you would use if you were going to knot the braid on itself in the first place. Bobby pins are used to hold the twisted braid in place.

• Make sure the other two braided portions of hair are twisted and attached in the same manner so that they line up near each other once they are put into place.
