Here are some braided hairstyle ideas combined with bobby pins to inspire you.

There are different styles of braids and buns, including cornrows/flat braids, thread braids, and simple braids.

The hairstyles mentioned above involve simply braiding or threading the hair and either:

• Leave the ends of the braid loose in very small, small, or medium curls. The curly hair will naturally form balls due to the natural shrinkage effect of curly hair.
• Or you can tie loose curly hair into a ball and pull the ends up.

This does not give the same result on straight, wavy or naturally very curly hair; manual hair modifications may be necessary to create volume.

For example:

• Creating curls with rollers, curlformers etc... .
• Backcomb the hair.
• Or if the hair is naturally curly (very small to medium curls). But the hair has been stretched and temporarily straightened. The hair will need to be re-wet to activate the shrinkage (formation of balls).
