The
hair bun trend continues to be super popular and bang-on-trend, so if
you fancy giving this trend a twist then follow our hair tutorial to
create a gorgeous upside down french braided bun. Adding an upside down french braid to your bun will really transform this look and create a statement style.
Step One
Start
by flipping your head over as you will need to start the braid at the
nape of the neck. Apply a little serum to your finger to help smooth out
the hair. We think Bed Head After Party is just peeeerfect!
Step Two
Separate
a small section of hair from the bottom of your ear to the other side;
this section of hair will be the start of your braid. Split this into 3
and begin braiding. Follow our french braid hair tutorial for the next
few easy steps for creating this hot look. :)
Step Three
You
need to stop braiding as you reach the crown of your head as this is
where your bun will sit. Secure your braid with an elastic.
Step Four
You
now need to hold back the front section of your hair that hasn’t been
incorporated into the braid. Smooth this back and secure this and the
hair from the end of your braid with another elastic.
Step Five
You
now need to create your bun! If you're going for a super smooth and
glamorous look, you can use a mesh bun ring to give a perfect shape and
if you're choosing the more relaxed look simply twist your hair around.
Secure these with some pins and your look is complete.
This
can appear to be quite a difficult style but once you have the french
braiding technique this really is very simple and will only take a few
minutes to style. We love trying out different ways of styling braids
