braided bun

Plaited hair coil

A braided bun is a hairstyle combining two techniques: hair is first woven into one or more braids, then coiled or wrapped into a bun at the back or crown of the head.

The style ranges from casual to elaborate, appearing in everyday wear and formal occasions like weddings: She twisted her braid into a low braided bun.
