Designed by stylist Lena Piccininni of New Jersey, these bun braids for curly hair feature a bald fade undercut with a braided top knot/bun.
“If you want an undercut, make sure your hair is long enough to push back and/or be able to put in a bun. Thicker or coarse hair on top works best for it to be braided. The hair type could be straight or curly. Both work great with this style. The importance is more of the length and texture,” Piccininni explains.
