✨DUTCH BRAIDS AND LOW MESSY BUN✨

Dutch braids and low messy bun is an easy hairstyle to wear casually or dressed up. With a low messy bun it is perfect for every day or create a sleek donut bun or chignon to dress it up for wearing out. With the holidays right around the corner, I wanted to feature a different variety of hairstyles that will be perfect for holiday parties and get-togethers with friends. This hairstyle is quick and easy to do and perfect for looking put-together this holiday season.

Dutch Braids and Low Messy Bun Steps: Step 1 / Start with a side part on the right side. Step 2 / Pick up a section of hair on the heavy side of the part leaving a small section of hair right at the hairline. Step 3 / Divide the section into three smaller sections. Step 4 / Cross the back strand under the middle. Step 5 / Then cross the front strand under the middle. Step 6 / Cross the back strand under the middle and bring in a section of hair, incorporating it into the braid.

Step 7 / Next, cross the front strand under the middle and bring in another section, continuing to leave out the front bang portion. Step 8 / Repeat steps 6 and 7 two more times. Step 9 / Now gradually bring in the front bang portions. Step 10 / Once the braid reaches the ear, continue braiding the hair down in a regular braid and tie off the end with a clear elastic band. Step 14 / Now create another dutch braid on the other side of the head, then tying it off with an elastic band. Step 15 /Bring all the hair up into a low ponytail.

Step 16 / Wrap the elastic band one time over the hair. Step 17 / Then wrap the hair pulling it halfway through the band. Step 18 / Pin sections of the hair up to create a low messy bun.
