Low Bun with Wispy Bangs for a Poetic Look
A gentle low bun or a side bun paired 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 the facial features and creating a more ethereal look. After styling your bangs meticulously, apply a light hair serum or styling spray to keep your hair shiny, fragrant, and ready for those spring outings.
Braided Bun Hairstyle
If you’re not a fan of traditional braids, try this intricate variation: the braided bun. It’s especially suitable for pairing with the “ao dai” during the Lunar New Year. This hairstyle is perfect for those who adore a gentle, sweet look and is an excellent choice for dates or parties.
To achieve this style, separate your hair into three or four sections on one side and braid them to 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 hairstyle is ideal for those who adore a gentle look while adding a modern twist. When creating this style, remember to be gentle to create volume. You can also try the “Messy Low Bun” for a natural, carefree, and dynamic look. With this style, those loose strands will give you a vibrant, free-spirited, and bohemian vibe.
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 various 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 the head look bigger, so avoid pulling your hair too tightly. Instead, gently pull the top section of your hair to create natural volume, resulting in a softer appearance.
