The bandeau braid is the bohemian-chic hairstyle par excellence. The good news is that it can be declined in three ways: crown version, like a headband or bun.

Crown style braid

Nothing complicated, just a little dexterity! Apply a good amount of volumizing cream to wet hair to texturize and prevent frizz or stray locks .

Start just above the ears by drawing a line on each side. Make a braid from left to right or from right to left. As you go forward, take other locks of hair on the same principle of African braid. Once finished, the braid forms a crown . Simply hold it behind the ear with hair clips.

For long hair, the headband braid is a fun and easy way to clear the face while highlighting the basic hairstyle. It is advisable to start on unwashed hair. If you are working on clean hair, brush beforehand and coat the hair with texturizing powder.

Draw a line on the side and start making an African braid on the front of the head.

Continue following the hairline and finish in ponytail .

The braid headband bun

A hairstyle to absolutely adopt for its glamorous effect.

Directly above the left ear, take a very small band of hair and braid it. Place it across the head, spaced about an inch from your forehead. Tie it with a mini-elastic, and pinch it with a hair clip over the right ear. Gently smooth the rest of the hair with a brush.

Combine it into a low ponytail with a strong elastic. Twist the ponytail around itself, forming a small bun, and hold it all with hairpins.
