DIY: Braided Bun Up-Do
Looking for a fun style to show off at your next event? Try this easy DIY Braided Bun Up-Do! Today’s TuesTorial comes from Amanda Villanueva (Cosmetology Student at La’ James International College in Cedar Rapids).
What you need:
- 4 Hair Elastics
- Bobby Pins
- Hairspray
Step 1: Create 2 low ponytails.

Step 2: Braid each ponytail into a classic three strand braid.

Step 3: Wrap one braid up and over the second braid. Use bobby pins to secure the braid in place.

Step 4: Wrap the second braid around the first ponytail & into any open spaces. Make sure to hide the elastic bands & then secure in place with bobby pins.

Step 5: Pull apart the braids to give it a loose & messy look. Use hairspray to hold the bun in place and smooth any fly aways. *TIP: Messy is in so no need to worry about all the little hairs.

…. and now the Final Look!

Beautiful job Amanda! Thank you for the great tips & for participating in today’s #LjicTuesTorial!
