Get it twisted

The fab French braided bun

Begin by smoothing your hair with the Angelo David Paddle Brush.

The French braided bun step 1

Section off pieces in the front (as shown in the photo), and on the rest of your hair, create a French braid, starting at the top of the ear on one side of your head, going diagonally across to the other side. Secure the end of the braid with an elastic hair band.

Now, grab the end, and slowly coil it to form a side bun. Hold the bun in place with bobby pins.

The French braided bun step 3

Use a curling iron or rollers next to create a few waves on the front section of hair.
Then divide it up into two sections, pinning one directly back and the other to the
side of your head, attached to the bun. Secure tightly with bobby pins.
