Braided Wreath with Side Bun


Braided hair is in right now, so this is an easy way to incorporate the style into a fun and simple updo.  It's great as a bridal style, or even a grad style.  

1)   Make sure your hair is nice a dry before starting.  If your hair is slippery, use some texturizing product, such a dry shampoo, a powder or a spray.

2)  Divide your hair into two sections.  The divide should start from just in front of your ear and travel diagonally to the back of your other ear.  This is where the bun will be.  Clip away the smaller section.

3) In the larger section, start with a small section of hair at the front of your ear.  Braid this section like a french braid.  Begin the braid, and twist each section underneath the old one.  Add additional pieces from each side as you twist a new section underneath.  Braid the section along the head, and aim it along towards the bottom and other side of the section.  Use a hair tie to section to keep the braid in place.  Repeat with the other section.

4) Pin the braids as needed to hold it in place.  If there are loose pieces at the bottom, pin them in.

5) Curl the loose ends of the braids.  Pin the curls into a loose bun.  

6) Once done, spray some hairspray to keep everything in place.

Done!
