Low Bun with Wispy Bangs for a Romantic Look
A low, gentle bun or a side bun with long, wispy bangs will accentuate the graceful beauty of the ‘ao dai’. The ideal length for the bangs is just touching the cheekbones, softening and elongating the face. After styling your bangs perfectly, apply a light hair serum or hairspray to keep your hair smooth, shiny, and fragrant as you stroll through the spring festival.
Braided Bun Hairstyle
If you’re not a fan of traditional braids, try something new with this intricate braided bun. It’s especially suitable to pair with the ‘ao dai’ during Tet. This hairstyle is perfect for those who adore a gentle and sweet look and is an excellent choice for dates or parties.
To achieve this look, separate your hair into three or four sections on one side and braid them until you reach the ends. Repeat the process on the other side. Finally, wrap the two braided sections around your head and secure them with bobby pins. With this hairstyle, you’re sure to be the center of attention at the festivities!

Low Bun Hairstyle
The low bun is ideal for those who adore a gentle look but want to add a modern twist. When creating this style, remember to be gentle and create a slight puff for your hair. You can also try the Messy Low Bun for a natural, carefree, and dynamic look. With this style, the loose strands will give you a lively and free-spirited appearance.
High Bun Hairstyle
The high bun, also known as the ‘garlic clove’ bun, is a simple yet elegant choice, allowing girls to comfortably stroll through the spring festivals without worrying about oily or messy hair. This versatile hairstyle pairs well with the ‘ao dai’ and many other outfits.
Girls with round faces should try high buns at the top of the head to create the illusion of a longer and slimmer face. However, keep in mind that this style can make your head look larger, so avoid pulling your hair too tight. Instead, gently pull the top section of your hair to create a natural puff, resulting in a softer appearance.
