3 Ways to Style Bun Mohawk

A bun Mohawk is a hairstyle for girls who like to look a little eccentric. When you are young, life is about having fun and trying new things every once in a while. Creating a perfect Mohawk bun is a great and quick way to have fun with styling your hair. That is why we are going to explain how to do a bun Mohawk in a few easy steps.

 

How to Do Bun Mohawk – 3 Easy Steps

Here are the steps to create a Mohawk with buns!

Step 1: Dry and Detangle Your Hair

Brushing smooth hair before creating a bun Mohawk

If you have already washed your hair, make sure it is completely dry. Then comb it thoroughly. That is important because once your hair is smooth, it will be much easier to section it.

 

Step 2: Section Your Hair

Hair divided into sections with elastics for a bun Mohawk

Divide your hair into three horizontal sections. Try to make the sections as even as possible. Minor differences will not be hard to overcome. Tie the sections with elastic hair bands.

 

Step 3: Shape and Set the Buns

Tease each section carefully and twist them into parallel buns in a vertical row. You can either use elastic bands to tie the buns or bobby pins to secure them. Use hairspray to make sure they stay in place throughout the day, and you are good to go with your bun Mohawk.

Inspiring Bun Mohawk Hairstyles

The following are three of the best bun Mohawk hairstyles. Have a look and get some inspiration for yourself.

1. The Classic Bun Mohawk Updo

This classic bun Mohawk hairstyle is probably the least eccentric version of a Mohawk. It is also a great dupe for those classic updos that require a lot of precision and skill and can often be irritating because of all the pieces of hair sticking out. This hairstyle looks elegant and helps elongate your face visually.

Ideal for: Oval and round-shaped faces.

How to style: When it comes to making it, follow the steps exactly as we described above. Make the buns as flexible as possible so they can be stretched wide enough to touch each other and create one composed look.

 

2. The Pastel Rainbow Bun Mohawk

If you’re wearing funky colorful highlights in your hair, a great way to emphasize them is with these gorgeous messy Mohawk buns.

Ideal for: Round and square-shaped faces.

How to style: This hairstyle is special because the color composition in the buns is so beautiful and unique. In this one, the hair is divided into four sections, the first of which starts exactly behind your hairline.

 

3. The Natural Afro Puff Mohawk

This bun with a curly Mohawk hairstyle can almost be considered cheating. In an afro, the hair naturally shapes itself into round forms, so making the actual buns is not required here.

Ideal for: Oval and heart-shaped faces.

How to style: You can always use bobby pins to help shape the natural bun Mohawk the way you want it.

 

These bun Mohawks are so unique, and not many women would wear them on a daily basis. But at least you will have fun trying the hairstyle out.
