Low Bun with Wispy Bangs for a Romantic Look
A gentle low bun or a side bun paired with long, wispy bangs will accentuate the graceful beauty of women donning the elegant ‘ao dai’. The ideal length for the bangs is just touching the cheekbones, softening and elongating the facial features. After styling the bangs meticulously, apply a light coat of hair serum or styling spray to keep the hair smooth, shiny, and fragrant as you stroll through the spring festival.
Braided Bun Hairstyle
If you’re not a fan of the traditional braid, try something new with this intricate braided bun. It’s especially suitable to pair with the ‘ao dai’ during the Lunar New Year. This hairstyle is perfect for those who adore a gentle, sweet look, and it’s an excellent choice for dates or parties.
To achieve this look, separate three or four strands of hair from one side of your head 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 stand out and attract attention during the holiday celebrations!

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 bun, remember to be gentle and leave some volume in the hair. You can also try the ‘Messy Low Bun’ for a natural, effortlessly chic style. With this hairstyle, the loose strands will give you a lively, free-spirited, and carefree look.
High Bun Hairstyle
The high bun, also known as the ‘onion bun’, is a simple yet classy choice, allowing girls to comfortably stroll through the spring festival without worrying about greasy or tangled 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 their heads to create the illusion of a longer and slimmer face. However, keep in mind that this hairstyle can make the head appear larger, so avoid pulling your hair too tight. Instead, gently pull the top section of your hair to create natural volume, resulting in a softer appearance.
