Braided Updo
This intricate hairstyle features a series of braids that are gathered into a twisted updo at the back of the head. The braids create an elegant, formal look while the slightly messy, textured finish gives it a soft, natural feel. This style would be suitable for a variety of occasions, from formal events to more casual settings.
To achieve this braided updo, start by sectioning the hair into several vertical sections. Braid each section, securing the ends temporarily. Once all the braids are complete, gather them together at the back of the head and twist them into a loose, textured updo. Secure the style with bobby pins, allowing a few face-framing pieces to remain loose and casual. Finish with a light hold hairspray to keep the style in place.
