3 braided hairstyles to make in less than 3 minutes!
You know those ugly mornings where the alarm clock rings and you’re totally stuck into bed. When you finally manage to get off one foot at a time, slowly, it’s already time to get the bus? There you go, those are most of my mornings! But, as I’m a “girly girl” I had to figure out some hair style to give me a twist those days I’m in a super rush. That’s what today’s post is all about: 3 braided hairstyles to make in less than 3 minutes!

Step 1
1. Braided headband
This is the fastest and easiest hairstyle and my favourite: perfect for most occasions, adds a boho look to every outfit! Let’s start!
Step 2
With a small hair strand near the back of the ear make a small braid. Repeat on other side.
Step 3
Add volume by pulling slightly outwards the braided strands. Now make a sort of hairband pulling your braids over the top of your head and pin them in place.
Step 4
Easy as pie!
Step 5
2. Braided bun

Make a very high ponytail and divide it into 2 big strands
Step 6
With these two make braids (fix one with a tweezer while working on the other).
Step 7
Now, pump up the volume by pulling slightly outwards the braided strands. Now hold one braid and make the other one flip around it, pin it in place, and to the same with the second one.
Step 8
Finished!
Step 9
If you wish you can add a decorative ribbon or a flower at the bottom of the bun.
Step 10
3. Side braid with a twist

Start with a medium strand of hair from just over your ear and divide it into 2 parts.
Step 11
Now twist them like this: the right strand goes over the left and the left goes under the right. Now add another strand to your right strand and repeat the twist.
Step 12
Keep going like this until you reach the back of the other ear.
Step 13
Now get the rest of your hair and make a regular braid going down on your shoulder
Step 14
Done!
