Upside Down Braid With Messy Bun Finish
Here, I’m going to show you how to create an upside down braid with a messy bun finish.
If you’re on the lookout for something a bit different, you’ll love this. Let’s get started!
Tools and materials:
- Hair elastics
- Hair tie
1. Braid hair upside down
Tip your hair upside down and start braiding your hair.
2. Tie off bottom
Proceed to tie off the bottom of your braid.
You don’t want to incorporate all of the hair into the braid, you want to leave a section of hair down at the front.
3. Tie hair into bun
Proceed to scrape all of your hair into a ponytail and tie it with a hair tie.
Don’t pull your hair all the way through at the end, though, as we want to create a bun.
4. Widen the bun
Pull on the bun to give it a loose and messy look.
Proceed to pull out small sections of hair at the front on either side of your head to frame your face.
5. Separate hair at back
Separate the hair at the back into two sections.
6. Tie hair at front
Bring the hair round to the front and tie the bottom with an elastic.
7. Twist hair around bun
Separate the hair you’ve tied to create a circle, then twist that circle and put it over the bun.
Upside down braid with messy bun finish
Here is the finished look. I love the braid going up the back of my head from the bottom, with the gorgeous messy bun sitting at the top of my head.
This hairstyle is quite different and unique and a really great option if you’re looking for a change.
