A Wedding Hairstyle You Can Do Yourself: The Braided Updo
Be it for a wedding or a dinner out, updos look sophisticated and chic. They can, however, be time consuming and complicated and so today I wanted to share a quick and easy braided updo.
This takes about five to ten minutes and will take you from casual to classy in no time at all…
Step One
Start off by brushing your hair to get rid of the tangles and spray in some texturising spray. This hairstyle works best on second day hair as it has more grip.
Step Two
Separate the hair into three sections. The one at the back should have more hair in than the two at the front. Then, tie the hair at the back into a low ponytail.
Step Three
Take a bit of hair from both the sections at the side and thread them through the ponytail
Step Four
Pin up the back section of hair, bringing the hair up and tucking it under. Ensure that all the pins are beneath and out of view.
Step Five
Braid both sections of hair at the front. I chose to do two fishtail braids but it will work just as well with any type.
Step Six
Wrap the braids around the pinned up hair and secure in place underneath. Spray with hairspray to hold.
Step Seven
Add some statement hairpins to the side of the updo for a extra glam look!
