Messy Bun!!! my hair is too curly for a french braid
Gabby | November 23, 2011 at 8:54 am
I love the french braid look…. someone I know french braids her hair then tucks it up under itself so it looks very elegant and beautiful… I love it!
Alyssa | November 23, 2011 at 9:12 am
Messy bun! Wear it high or low (or in the middle), looks chic both anyway!
Leslie | November 23, 2011 at 10:35 am
The messy bun is my favorite
shelby | November 23, 2011 at 11:33 am
i like the french braid better, you can do so many things with it, and it always looks neat and clean and out of your face.
Jasmine Liu | November 23, 2011 at 12:14 pm

Amy | November 23, 2011 at 3:46 pm
Def the french braid!
shelly | November 23, 2011 at 3:47 pm
messy bun! its DIY, unlike the french braid which requires help, at least for me
Kelsey Kruk | November 23, 2011 at 3:47 pm
French braid! I love braiding my hair, and then having curly hair when I take it out, because I normally have pretty straight hair… and I love curly hair! (:
Malak Abu Shanab | November 23, 2011 at 3:48 pm
French braid, this is how I always do my hair
Sydney S | November 23, 2011 at 3:48 pm
French Braid, when done in a classic, sophisticated way!
Taylor | November 23, 2011 at 3:51 pm
gotta go with the messy bun.. it goes good with anything!
Abby | November 23, 2011 at 3:51 pm
That’s really hard to decide. I like the French braid because it looks adorable and keeps your hair out of your face, and goes with alot. The messy bun is amazing, I don’t know what I would do without it (oh duh, ballerina bun The messy bun can make a formal outfit less formal and is super cute. I love both!(:
Nicole | November 23, 2011 at 3:51 pm
Messy bun will match the outfit
Alana | November 23, 2011 at 3:52 pm
The french braid, classic and timeless, always works! And creases your hair providing a different hairstyle for the next day
Samantha | November 23, 2011 at 3:52 pm
The messy bun, since I’m always busy and it keeps the hair out of my face, but still looks chic.

Wayne Todhunter | November 23, 2011 at 3:58 pm
Most definitely the French Braid, you just can’t not go wrong, its sleek, sexy, chic.
Kelley | November 23, 2011 at 3:58 pm
I like to braid my bangs back and tie the braid into a messy bun, the best of both worlds :]
Sarah-Jennifer | November 23, 2011 at 4:02 pm
I love the messy bun because its sexy ,classy and relax at the same time and you can match so many style with it i love doing photoshoots with the messy bun because its goes with everything
Zoë | November 23, 2011 at 4:05 pm
I love the french braid cause it’s a perfect style to wear either casually or in a more elegant way. I especially like waterfall braids, when they’re done right.
Zoë | November 23, 2011 at 4:06 pm
(I don’t live in the US, so I won’t be eligible for the prize. just wanted to share my opinion.)
Elle | November 23, 2011 at 4:08 pm
Definitely the french braid! It’s a easy, fun way to do your hair and it looks amazing! Especially when you braid it into a bun or a side braid.
Minnie | November 23, 2011 at 4:19 pm
Definitely the messy bun. It’s easy to style and match with any outfits!
Donna F. | November 23, 2011 at 4:21 pm
Messy bun…it’s a much more natural look and so easy to do!
Adele | November 23, 2011 at 4:21 pm
I like the french braid. I think it gives such an elegant look.
Kelly | November 23, 2011 at 4:22 pm
messy bun ! It can be worn so many ways, in a carefree style when your lazy, in a sexy style when you wanna dress up but keep the hairstyle easy, in a cute hipster style just bunch it up and leggo !, or for a perfect day at the beach just keeping the hair loose. And you can also wear it with a pretty skirt and let the girly side you show, or in a leather jacket and let the wild side of you show, in a hoodie for a carefree, effortless and quick run to the store look, wear it with a chic modern dress design to look sophisticated ! Wear it up, mid, down, left, right, anywhere ! I love the messy bun, and it is useful for when you want to workout too and keeping cool while looking hot. (:
Tess | November 23, 2011 at 4:23 pm
messy bun,good for any occasion and weather!
Roxi | November 23, 2011 at 4:32 pm
I can’t choose; I think that they both work at different times. Like, if I’m going to a party or something, I’d rather wear a cute side french braid, but if I’m going to school, I’d want a messy bun. (:
Audrey | November 23, 2011 at 4:35 pm
The messy bun, most definitely!
Emily | November 23, 2011 at 4:40 pm
French braid!!
ashley | November 23, 2011 at 4:47 pm
The messy bun u can do so much with it high or lo to the side I love the look
Alexandra Johnson | November 23, 2011 at 4:49 pm
French Braid all the way!
Javiera | November 23, 2011 at 5:14 pm
The french braid is my favorite hair trend because it is effortlessly chic. Even if you are wearing a pair of skinny jeans and a tee, the braid instantly updates the look. Just add a pair of earrings and Go!.
Candice George | November 23, 2011 at 5:15 pm
I love a messy bun. Strands of hair blowing in the wind or caressing your face. It’s wild and free and even a little elegant and not too “uptight”. It’s a look for all outfits and occasions!
Charity` | November 23, 2011 at 5:26 pm
The messy bun has been the way to go for me lately!! I love it and it’s easy to do!
Shaylin | November 23, 2011 at 5:29 pm
I love both! If you can incorporate the two, then you’re money
Catalina Hernandez Ortiz | November 23, 2011 at 5:35 pm
the french braid because my hair doesnt have to much volume and its really hard to make it to messy.
Audycee | November 23, 2011 at 5:48 pm
The messy bun, its simple and sexy.
Duong | November 23, 2011 at 5:57 pm

Cindy | November 23, 2011 at 8:09 pm
I like both, but prefer the messy bun because it takes less time to style, which is a definite plus for a busy bee like me
Nurie | November 23, 2011 at 8:27 pm
The french braid look is definitely my favorite trend of the season. There are so many ways you can style it, with your hair down or up. It adds dimension to your overall look! I love to play it up with a pretty hair clip or my greek leaf headband. You can’t go wrong wearing it!
Sharon | November 23, 2011 at 9:39 pm
I love the french braid look! It’s an easy way to make an outfit more put together and keep your hair out of your face at the same time(:
Michelle | November 23, 2011 at 10:40 pm
Messy bun! it’s so laid-back and effortless!
Emily | November 23, 2011 at 10:41 pm
Definitely the french braid, it’s a classic!
Kristin | November 23, 2011 at 10:43 pm
Definitely the messy bun! It’s way easier and quicker then the french braid. And it looks even more unique if you add a decorative clip or flower nested beside it.
2011 formal dress | November 24, 2011 at 3:55 am

Laura L. | November 24, 2011 at 5:17 am

Jackie | November 24, 2011 at 7:29 am
The messy bun.
I work out a lot, and I’m a cheerleader, so throwing my hair into the messy bun, is really quick and easy for me..
Kayla Onwere | November 24, 2011 at 7:39 am
I like the french braid cause its almost Christmas and you can wear it with a black dress with tights and some black boots:)
Nan kham | November 24, 2011 at 8:46 am
I love the French braid rather than the messy bun
Manda | November 24, 2011 at 8:58 am
They are both very cute and fun, but I’m going to go with the french braid. It looks very elegant plus you can use it in so many ways. My favorite way to use it is to start on my bangs and take it all the way down and put my hair into a side ponytail, it go’s with any style! <3
Catia | November 24, 2011 at 11:03 am
Definitely the messy bun! It’s just so much easier to do especially when you’re hair is curly like mine!
Maridy | November 24, 2011 at 11:47 am
I love the messy bun! I always do that to my hair!

cass | November 25, 2011 at 5:34 pm
messy bun:)
Sydney | November 25, 2011 at 5:34 pm
Deffinatly the french braid, it really opens up the face, and you can either go Hard and Dark with the makeup or Natural and fresh. You can even twist it or push it under and make it into a Braided bun, it is really pretty!
Sarbjot | November 25, 2011 at 5:39 pm
The messy bun is definitely my favorite hair trend. Not only is it a super fast hair-do, but I love how such a casual style can be fashionable. Plus, the french braid is a bit of a hassle because of my long curly hair.
Kayla Balcher | November 25, 2011 at 5:40 pm
Messy bun all the way
Madi | November 25, 2011 at 5:41 pm

Messy french braid, best of both worlds. ♥
Doris | November 25, 2011 at 5:53 pm
The messy bun — easy and casual, yet sophisticated. Natural, effortless beauty is the way to go
Domonique | November 25, 2011 at 5:55 pm
Honestly the best, hairstyle I would wear would be a ” Messy Bun.” because it somewhat gives an elegant taste, of the outfit. If you wore it in a French braid It would make it more relaxed but fashionable. It depends on the type of person wearing this gorgeous outfit. They work both ways, but I do prefer the messy bun better.
Colleen | November 25, 2011 at 6:01 pm
The messy bun is definitely my fave. I wear it with a chunky sweater and large glasses. Geek chic
tiffany do | November 25, 2011 at 6:03 pm
i like the french braid better, its more flattering for everyone!
Ana | November 25, 2011 at 6:04 pm
The messy bun! My hair is too layered to make the french braid look nice.
Andrea Jauregui | November 25, 2011 at 6:08 pm
I prefer the messy bun style. it’s like you’ve played with the hair. Also with a cute accessory you can do more formal…….The other one is very boring.
Olivia | November 25, 2011 at 6:16 pm
The messy bun most definitely!! It is so simple yet it looks so classy I think!
Jane | November 25, 2011 at 6:28 pm
The Messy Bun , it’s casual and laid-back but can still be dressed up.
ysabelle | November 25, 2011 at 6:29 pm
Messy bun, i hate geting those ugly knots when wering a scarf, and it looks so effortlessly elegnt
Ann | November 25, 2011 at 6:43 pm
It’s hard to choose because they’re both great hairstyles to wear.For myself,a messy bun would be the easiest one to do your hair in the morning.The french braid may be complicated,but it’s a classy look and get rid of the hair in the way.Personally,I love the french braid because its so elegant.
Veronica Sanchez | November 25, 2011 at 7:06 pm

julie | November 25, 2011 at 7:49 pm
a french braid leading into a messy bun
maria | November 25, 2011 at 8:08 pm
I love the french braid. It’s simple but it really adds extra cuteness to your outfit. My bangsare long, so they tend to be on my face, so i think the french braid is my “seems effortless yet pretty” solution
Mary Narvaez | November 25, 2011 at 8:13 pm
I like the braid, I dont like the Just woke up look
Harley Barrick | November 25, 2011 at 8:41 pm
Messy bun kind of on the side! It still looks very nice and is simple for any day.
Jessica Marcatoma | November 25, 2011 at 8:50 pm

Luvs the french braid. It’s flexibility in terms of suitability for various looks and occasions is unparalleled.
Sarah | November 26, 2011 at 1:45 pm
I don’t have long enough hair for either–but I’ve always loved the messy bun look. It’s no mess and still elegant enough for a fancy night out!
Caroline | November 26, 2011 at 1:48 pm
French braid! Best workout style! Im working on my best shape ever with app Poworkout, my lovely daily workouts!
Reina | November 26, 2011 at 5:56 pm
Messy bun. French braid seems to restricted and uptight for my taste.
AnDrea Hargrove | November 26, 2011 at 7:18 pm
The messy bun was my favorite this season! I lean toward the messy look, opposed to the neat and tidy look anyday.
lauren | November 27, 2011 at 12:40 am
messy bun!
Mymy | November 27, 2011 at 7:01 am
I wear a messy bun everyday to school and i think it looks great! I always get comments on how great it looks even for a messy bun. I feel like its a more laid back look for when you dont feel like straightening your hair all nicely and looking like youspent hours to get ready. You can still look fantastic with a messy bun whereas a french braid looks kind of childish in some ways sometimes and doesnt always match with all your outfits the way a messy bun would!
Nia | November 27, 2011 at 9:53 am
The messy bun is always adorable.
Amanda | November 27, 2011 at 10:42 am
The messy bun. I never was able to master the french braid…lol.
DL | November 28, 2011 at 6:45 am
Messy bun, hands down! Effortless but still so chic.
Alexandra | November 28, 2011 at 10:11 am
I love the messy bun! I curl the extra strands that fall down along with my side bangs and add a vintage headband for a Victorian look.
Ana Elvir | November 28, 2011 at 3:52 pm
The messy bun: its easy to do and still looks chic with anything I wear!
