Osheaga is among the most popular festivals in Canada where fashion also takes a center stage! To complement the trendy styles of participants, we suggest two festival hairstyles in perfect harmony with this musical venue.
The crown headband

How-to:
- Part your hair at the top of your head.
- Tie a thin scarf around your head, placing it over your forehead. Once knotted, start from the front right side.
- Take a lock of hair and wrap it over and around the headband. Then insert the lock between the headband and the head. Let go of the lock.
- Take a second lock, merge it with the first lock (repeat step 3).
- Repeat all steps until you reach the center back of the head.
- Repeat the same steps on the left side.
- Start braiding the hair at the back, using the scarf ends as one of the locks of the braid.
- Tie the braid with an elastic band and secure it with pins to create the illusion of a low bun.

Messy Braided Half-Bun

How-to:
- Start with the upper part of the hair: create two parts from the corners of the forehead to the crown.
- Move the top section, then tie the bottom section to keep it out of reach.
- Free the top to make the braids.
- Make three French braids in the top center head and solidify with hair spray.
- Once the braids reach the back of the crown and all the hair is inserted, tie them into a messy bun.
- Once the bun is tied, add some texture to the remaining loose hair using a Jacques Despars curling iron.
