1. The Classic: Dutch Braids
The Dutch Braids are THE classic among Wiesn hairstyles – and for good reason. They not only look great but also withstand all the challenges of an Oktoberfest day. These braids are basically the "inside-out" version of French braids and are braided close to the head, giving them a special structure and durability. They are perfect if you don't want to wear your hair down.
Styling Tip
Divide your hair into two halves and start braiding a Dutch braid on each side. Make sure to cross the strands under each other instead of over to achieve the distinctive look. Secure the ends with a clear hair tie.
For a playful look, you can pull out a few strands at the front of your face and curl them with a curling iron.
For extra hold and a shiny finish, use theAIREX Hair Spray Non-Aerosol – it provides strong hold while keeping your hair looking natural. It gives your hair a natural shine and tames all flyaways, so nothing comes loose from the braids. Additionally, it contains UV protection – perfect for a long day outside at Oktoberfest!
2. The Sweetness: Milkmaid Braids
If you like it playful and sweet, then these are the ones for you Milkmaid Braidsyour perfect choice. This hairstyle gives you a romantic and at the same time traditional look that perfectly matches the Dirndl. Bonus: the hairstyle is not as difficult as it looks! All you need to know is a simple three-strand braid that you pin to your head.
Styling Tip
First, braid two simple braids on both sides of your head. Then lay the braids like a headband over your head and secure them with hairpins. If you have shorter hair, fold them upward at the braid roots and guide them along the top of your head. For longer hair, you can first lead the braids along the nape and then bring them up. Hide the hair ends under the braided part. Secure everything well with hairpins, and you're done!
Variant: Hair wreath
If you are a bit more practiced in braiding, you can also create a similar hairstyle to the Milkmaid Braids with a Hair wreath braid from your hair. To do this, you part the front section of your hair, that is, the hair over your forehead and temples from ear to ear. Then you start with this section on one side and begin to braid a French braid, where you only add hair on one side, namely the outer side. This way, you work your way all around your head. Once the parted section is braided, you braid along the back of your head. When you can no longer add hair, you finish the braid normally with three strands and tuck the end under your hair crown. A real eye-catcher at Oktoberfest that looks great from every angle!
3. The Elegant: Bun with Braided Accents
For everyone who wants to make an elegant impression at the Wiesn, a high bun with braided accents is just right. This hairstyle is simple yet glamorous and fits perfectly at Oktoberfest with a classic or modern dirndl. You have many variations to choose from: bun with or without a bun cushion, French or Dutch braids, worn low at the nape or as a high bun.
Styling Tip
Separate a thin strand of hair from the face area and braid it into a fine braid, which you lay to the side. Gather the rest of the hair into a bun and wrap the braided strand around the base of the bun. Secure everything well with hairpins, and nothing will stand in the way of your visit to the Wiesn!
If you struggle with frizz, it can be very useful to use a hair gel with such hairstyles to incorporate the stray hairs into a neat braid. Our AH Hair Gel offers not only maximum flexibility in styling but also provides a secure hold. With a glossy finish, your hairstyle looks especially elegant and classic.

This hairstyle is a real eye-catcher at Oktoberfest and you certainly won't see it on just anyone else. And it's actually very easy to do! You only need two hair ties and a few bobby pins.
Styling Tip
Separate the top part of your hair, about above the ears, and tie it into a loose braid. Slide the hair tie down a bit and create a hole with your fingers just above the hair tie. Now pull the ponytail from underneath through this hole. If you now divide the braid into two parts, you will already notice that a heart is forming! Braid the two sections and tie them both together with a hair tie. Depending on how far you braid the braids and how low you tie the heart together, the heart will be larger or smaller.
To give this look more structure and definition, take a small amount of the AIREX Hair Waxesfrom ESTEL Europe and work it into the braided sections with your hands. The wax is perfect for highlighting individual strands and giving the hairstyle the desired shape and hold.

Secure the sections you are not working on immediately loosely with hair clips. Take a narrow strand of hair and wrap it around a medium-sized curling iron. Make sure to twist the strand away from your face – this creates an open, fresh look. Hold the strand for about 5-7 seconds, depending on your hair type and the desired intensity of the waves.
Let the wrapped strand cool briefly before carefully releasing it. Repeat the process with the remaining hair sections. To achieve a more natural finish, vary the direction of the waves – twist some strands towards the face and others away from it.
