5 simple braids

1. Braided ponytail
First, you need to comb your hair well until it is completely detangled. Make a ponytail at the back of your head, but leave out a section. Next, braid that left strand, then wrap it around the ponytail. Hold the hairstyle in place with a hair elastic.
If you want, you can add a little hair accessory to make it look even more beautiful!
2. Waterfall braid
Even with the waterfall braid, you first have to comb your hair well until you no longer have any knots.
Then, part your hair into a deep side part and place the hair on the other side of your head. You now have to divide the side with more hair into three small parts.
Braid these three strands, adding a little hair from the rest each time. As you do this, make sure the hair goes around your head, almost diagonally. Don’t drop your hands during the whole process.
Once you’ve come as far as you want it to be, you can finish the hairstyle with a regular braid. Then secure the whole thing with a hair elastic.
3. Double braids
This style goes really well with a pretty headband or hat, and it’s ready in just 3 minutes. Part your hair and braid each half. Braid down to about half the length before finishing with a ponytail.
The result is two loose, loose braids that will make your hair look gorgeous.
4. Elegant bun as a braid
Again, comb your hair until it is completely detangled. Leave out a small section and tie the rest of your hair in a high ponytail.
Then twist the ponytail around the hair elastic, creating a bun. Next, stick some bobby pins into the bun to keep it from falling apart. Then braid the remaining strand and wrap it around the bun.
5. Updo with a braid
There are many variations for updos. For example, if you’re in a hurry, you can simply braid two small strands and then use the rest of your hair to pin them up.
If you have a little more time, braid half the length of your hair and pin it up with the two strands already braided. If you want to wear these hairstyles for a special occasion, you can also add a braided pigtail crown.
Tips to keep in mind
Change your appearance
Many think that there is no such thing as a hairstyle for shorter hair and they comb each other the same way every day. But that gets boring over time. We also have an idea for shorter hair.

For short hair
If you have short hair and don’t know of any type of braid that would go well with your hair, then you’ve come to the right place!
Just take half of your hair, pull it up, and braid it in a braid. The half that you drop can be turned into curls. And you’re done.
