Nothing beats au naturel, yes? Synthetic braided headbands are okay, but sometimes, it can be tough to match the faux version’s color to yours. Solve that dilemma by using your own hair.

How-to: Get one inch section on the right side (below the ear) and start French braiding all the way to the other side. Tighten the braids as you go then tie the end with clear elastic. Hide the ends by clipping it near the nape for a clean finish.

This hairstyle is like an inception of buns and braids! A bun within a bun and braid within a braid! Genius! This is a perfect hairstyle for brides because: one, it’s oh-so fabulous! That alone should be a good enough reason, but will give you a number two. The big bun will serve as a strong anchor for the veil. It’s also low enough to make the veil flow gracefully to the shoulders.

Fan Bingbing hit the red carpet sporting a colossal slinky bun at the 2013 Oscars in Los Angeles, California. We love that she opted for this fun and quirky coif rather than the classic bun. It adds more interest to her total look! Wanna try it? Pull your hair up towards the crown of your head and fasten it with elastic. Before you do one more round with the elastic, create a big loop. Tuck the remaining ends of the hair towards the base of the loop. Fan out the loop from side to side and secure with bobby pins.

Put a splash of excitement to one of the most proverbial go-to hairstyles of women by doing a loop instead of the usual ponytail! Copy Fan Bingbing’s low ponytail by following these simple steps: Part your hair in the middle and gather it all at the side of your neck then secure with elastic. Create a hole by creating two sections above the elastic, then get your Topsy Tail and insert the ponytail ends in the loop and thread it through the hole you’ve created. Curl the ends of your hair using a curling wand then spritz some hairspray to set the style.

It looks pretty difficult, right? But, actually this rolled updo is one of the easiest to create. For better grip and styling, use a day-old hair. Prep it with some anti-frizz serum then do either a side part or a middle part.

Divide the hair into two sections; clip the left section first to get it out of the way. Start with the right side by grasping the front part of your hair and simply roll it inwards. Add a few more as you go. When you reach the nape, secure it with pins, leaving some hanging loose. Do the same thing to the other side. Twist and roll the loose ends of your hair and tuck it in the rolled portion and secure with bobby pins. Set the style with hairspray and gently comb the loose strands for a polished finish.

We heart the ever changing look of Fan Bingbing, but the simple styled Fan Bingbing is our favorite! Her classic bun hairstyle is most suitable for weddings and proms. We like the faux side bangs that hang just below her right earlobe. It prettifies the look further and creates an angular effect to her round facial structure.

Fan Bingbing’s intricate braided updo looks intimidating at first glance, but it’s actually quite easy to do! Apply some volumizing spray at the roots and tease the crown including the sides. French twist your hair and secure with pins. Make sure that the end is neatly tucked at the top of the twist you’ve just created. Now, get a faux braided elastic headband that matches your hair color and place it over your bouffant ‘do. Set the style with some hairspray.
