Braided messy French braid style headband in extra slim - for your perfect imperfect undone look! This loosely braided and very natural slim braid headband in messy style is handmade in your hair color! This hairpiece is the perfect braided hairdo eye-catcher but will still look very natural!
This messy style headband model is about 3 cm/ 1.2 inches wide and very lightweight ca 27 grams/ 0.9 oz, you wil absolutely forget you are wearing it! It looks especially natural - reminds very much of a French halo braid in messy look. It will look like you have french braided your own hair around your head but you save so much time because putting the headband on doesn't even take a minute!
This slim braid variant is great for straight hair. For curly and wavy hair I recommend the medium or wide variant of this headband hairpiece, because the disadvantage of this undone look is it looking so natural, the headband somewhat disappears in your hair! Hence I recommend this slim hairband for straight/ almost straight hair.
Available with our slip-stop!
The slip-stop for wider braided headbands is a unique offer at Magic Tribal Hair. Our slip-stop is applied to the bottom of the braid, so it is completely invisible when you wear your braid headband. It is similar to the one of hold-up stockings or strapless bras. It helpds to make the braid stay in place on the middle of your head especially with straight hair.
Moreover it makes your braid headband last longer, because it seals a part of the hair in the braid in full length which helps the braid to stay in shape. This means hair will pull out slower from a hairband braid with slip-stop compared to the same hairband braid model without slip-stop.
Our braid headbands fit every head!
The braided headband comes with a generous elastic part, so it will not be too small. If the hairband is too big, you can simply and quickly sew it smaller by hand with just a few stitches on the elastic part! Did you know that headbands slipping to the back of your head usually simply are too small for your head? Most women who know this problem assume that the shape of their head causes the headband to slip, but in most cases the headband is just too small. That is why we have you adapt the fit and deliver it rather a bit too loose than too tight!
We only use Kanekalon hair - best quality in synthetic hair!
Kanekalon hair has a real touch feeling, a natural shine and is very carefree. You can wash your headband in lukewarm water with a mild shampoo. Put the shampoo in the basin and let the headband soak in the shampoed water, don't rub or squeeze it. Put it on a thick towel to let it drip-dry.
Please understand that this personalized item is made to order especially for you and cannot be returned! Read all details in our general terms and conditions.
Some product pictures show how to combine this hair piece with other hair jewelry or hair pieces. These items must be purchased extra.
Hair Color
Your hair color can be matched perfectly including highlights, lowlights and all shades, because all braided headbands are made to order exclusively! One's own hair usually contains 2-3 colors (only dark hair often consists of 1 color only), hence we include up to 3 colors in the price. Headbands should be matched to the upper parts of your hair only, because that is the part of your own hair they meet when you wear them.

Love it. After Chemotherapy my hair is now much shorter than I want it to be. So I wanted to add a feminine touch with a nice braid style. Since I am not supposed to colour it anymore and there is much greying going on, I could not go with a store bought hair piece. So I was very happy to find Melanie who does custom made hair braids in a way I could not find anywhere else. She adviced me thoroughly on the right braid model for my hair style, the colours, and shipped it very fast, so it arrived only two days after I had decided. I DO strongly recommend however to look at the rules for taking your pictures and give yourself A FEW DAYS to take them BEFORE ordering!! I totally underestimated how hard it is. You have to have the right weather and position of the sun to get the lighting and background right at the same time!

Thank you for your reviews! To avoid confusion: Sara changed her flat French braid order to a thicker messy braid, so the braid in her picture differs from item picture. Sara, I wonder if we did have a misunderstanding? The instructions for the color matching picture come in 7 steps to get the picture right, even without any photography skills. Your 1st picture followed 6 steps, so I recommended retaking it just with side view, because in your front view, I could more guess than see the darker shade of your hair at the sides. I received the side view picture but I could not work with it, because you left out the other 6 steps you had done perfectly in your 1st picture. You did not want to retake, so I had to sort of guess exact color. It came out a bit too dark which we can adapt in future orders if you like.
Love this headband! It saves me the effort of braiding my hair myself as I used to do. Now I just slip this on and go! So pretty and natural looking.
I found this site when looking for headbands and am so happy that I did! I was not sure what the quality would be and how comfortable the headband braid would fit. It arrived and I put it on immediately. The quality was beyond excellent and the fit was perfect. Coworkers at my job thought that I had braided my own hair. I can't wait to show my hairdresser so that she can see how perfectly Magic Tribal Hair matched my colors and tones that I have adopted in the last few years. Melanie is incredibly helpful and it is obvious that she wants the hair piece to exactly match your own. I look forward to ordering more. Theresa; an extremely happy customer.
Have no idea how she got it so close but she NAILED it. already getting so many compliments. So high quality and “REAL”. Thank you! I’m glad I trusted you!
ottimo articolo sia nel colore che nella forma .
Love this! So pretty and easy to wear!
Love this. I used to Dutch braid my own hair, but it took too long. This is easy and pretty, and matches my hair!
Ich möchte mich ganz herzlich für das wunderschöne "Messy Zopf Haarband" bedanken.
Ich fürchtete, die gewählten Haarfarben könnten mit meinem Haar nicht passen. Meine Befürchtungen waren unbegründet, denn das Ergebnis ist ausgezeichnet.
Es gibt kein Unterschied zwischen den Farben des Zopfes und den Farben meines eigenes Haars. Es scheint, als ob der Zopf mit meinen eigenen Haaren geflochtet sei.
Ich gratuliere ! Dein Professionalismus ist lobenswert.
I LOVE IT !!This one matches my hair better !! Thank you !!! <3
I LOVE IT,THANK YOU !!
wunderbarer Kundenservice, der Haarschmuck sieht meinem Haar zum Verwechseln ähnlich!
So pretty!

Thank you so much for your review and your awesome picture. The braided style looks gorgeous on you! I recommend using my free picture color check before your next order, so I can make a somewhat fairer and indeed exact color match for you. Just contact me for instructions for a color matching picture and I will send them! I will send this note as a message to you as well, to make sure you won't miss it. Kind regards ~Melanie & Magic Tribal Hair
The braid is so beautiful! It looks and feels like real human hair! I love it!!
Wonderful match to my hair. Thanks for the quick service!
I love it! I sent a picture for colour consultation before ordering and I got a speedy reply with recommendations. I followed said recommendations and I am so pleased with my braided headband. I wore it the whole day today and people thought it was my own hair and they were surprised when I showed them it was a headband. I have a vintage-inspired style, so I wore my real hair curled in a hairnet/snood and wore the headband over the edges of the net.
Really happy with my purchase. Great quality. Thank you!
Love it!
I love this headband, stunning to wear for a special occasion, I got so many compliments when I wore this to a friend’s wedding. Everyone thought it was my actual hair!
I emailed Melanie a photo of my hair to get her advice about the colour, the headband matched my hair perfectly when it arrived. Melanie was very helpful and prompt when replying to me, excellent customer service. I selected the express option, ‘rush my headband’ and it arrived in 4 days! I am going to ordered a smaller headband for everyday wear now! ❤️
This is a wonderful headband; I do depend on this practical choice ,and wear it daily. The color was simply perfect. Everyone thinks its my own hair
