Side Braided Dutch Braid with Flowers
A side braided Dutch braid with flowers creates a romantic flair and is perfect for Oktoberfest. With a bit of practice, the side Dutch braid becomes the perfect bed for your flower crown. You start at the forehead and braid the strands tightly back, continuously adding new sections of hair. The technique of weaving the strands under each other provides the necessary hold. Once you've secured the braid, gently loosen it for more volume using the 'pancake' method. Now you can place your flowers at strategic points in the braid. Make sure not to cut the stems too short so they sit securely. A spritz of hairspray at the end, and you're ready for your Wiesn appearance!
Flower Crown with Loose Waves
Be enchanted by the lightness of a flower crown paired with gently cascading waves in your hair. Perfect for Oktoberfest: Loose waves framing your face give your look a natural freshness. You can easily create lively waves with a curling iron or large rollers. The real eye-catcher is the flower crown, which sits like a crown on your head, completing your wave ensemble. Choose flowers that match the colors of your dirndl for a harmonious overall appearance. The best part: With a flower crown, you add a flowing touch to your style without spending hours in front of the mirror. Enjoy the admiring glances that are sure to come your way!
Updo Braided Hairstyle with Floral Details
On a special day like Oktoberfest, creativity should not be lacking, and the updo braided hairstyle with floral details becomes a real eye-catcher! Braid your hair into an artistic structure that is loosely secured at the nape. While braiding, you can already incorporate small flowers or blossoms to add a fresh touch to your hairstyle. The use of hairpins with integrated flowers not only gives your look hold but also adds playful accents. Once the basic hairstyle is created, larger flowers – whether real or high-quality silk flowers – are subtly inserted into the updo. A tip for maintenance: You naturally want to avoid real flowers wilting, so it's best to choose varieties that last longer without water or spray them with a bit of hairspray to protect them. That way, your hairstyle will shine alongside you all day long!
Bun with Braided Flower Crown
Imagine yourself floating on a sea of blossoms as you stroll through the festival tent alleys – your bun with a braided flower crown makes it possible! First, tie your hair into a neat bun, ensuring it is secure. If you have thin hair, use a bun cushion for the necessary volume. Then, carefully braid in the flower crown, skillfully weaving it into your hair structure. Let a few flowers peek out for a romantic touch. Finish with hairspray to give it the final polish – and you're ready for festival fun and dance!
French Braid with Floral Headband
The French braid with a floral headband enchants with its timeless elegance and is so practical! Start by creating a classic French braid, adding extra strands side by side starting from the hairline. The secret lies in the perfect balance between tight guidance and gentle volume – this way, the hairstyle stays secure yet playful. Once the hairstyle is in place, add the floral headband. For extra hold of the flowers, spray a little hairspray on the band before placing it in your hair. The flowers emphasize the bohemian flair of the braid and perfectly complete your Oktoberfest look. Now you're ready for an unforgettable time at the Oktoberfest!
Guide for Hair Preparation Before Braiding
Before you start braiding, it is important that your hair is optimally prepared. Begin by washing and conditioning it thoroughly. Let it air dry or use a blow dryer if you're in a hurry. Then, carefully brush your hair to remove knots and tangles – this makes braiding easier. To give your hair some texture, you can apply a light volumizing spray or dry shampoo. This will give your braid more grip and hold. If your hair is very smooth, adding some waves with a styling tool can also help make braiding easier. Now your hair is ready for the beautiful Oktoberfest hairstyles with a flower crown.
Care Tips for Flower-Adorned Hair
If you’re integrating real flowers into your hairstyle, you should consider a few care tips. Keep the flowers in the refrigerator until the last moment to preserve their freshness. After applying them to your hair, avoid staying directly under the sun or in high heat, as this can cause the flowers to wilt. If you use hairspray, spray it carefully so it doesn’t weigh down the blooms or take away their natural shine. Should you use artificial flowers, make sure they are of good quality and mimic the appearance of real flowers for a stylish effect. After wearing, you can carefully remove the flowers from your hair and save them for the next occasion if necessary.
Tips for Long-Lasting Flower Crown Hold
To keep your flower crown in place all day, here are a few tips: First, make sure the crown fits well with the shape of your head. A crown that is too loose can easily slip, while one that is too tight can cause headaches. Use hairpins that match your hair color to carefully but firmly secure the crown in your hairstyle. Make sure to hide the pins under your hair so they are not visible. You can also use thin, almost invisible threads to secure the flowers extra. For additional hold, a little hairspray can help, but be careful not to damage the blossoms. With these tips, your flower crown will stay in place even while dancing and celebrating, allowing you to fully enjoy the festivities.
