Chase Infiniti Makes the Braided Bun Look Red Carpet Chic

There's nothing I love more than seeing braids and protective hairstyles on red carpets, and thanks to Chase Infiniti, it's becoming a norm in Hollywood.

The One Battle After Another actress is set to star in Hulu's upcoming drama series, The Testaments, and she joined her co-stars at the show's premiere in Los Angeles on March 31. For the event, she wore a strapless, beige corset dress with a tulle skirt that flared around her waist. She kept her makeup for the night pretty minimal with a barely-there look featuring a touch of eyeliner and mascara and a nude lipstick. Infiniti's hair was pulled off of her shoulders into an elegant braid that was then wrapped around on the top of her head to form a high braided bun. A smaller braid sat at the front of her head, swooping down slightly to create a kiss curl.

Infiniti is pretty used to proving that even trendy braided hairstyles are red carpet-worthy. Over the last few weeks, she's attended a handful of events with her natural hair tucked away in long, wavy box braids. The 25-year-old wore the braids in a free-flowing style when she hit the Academy Awards red carpet last month, and later, when she attended a photocall in London for The Testaments, she pulled them up into a high bun and left a few of her wavy ends loose at the back. Before both of those events, she showed to Essence's Black Women in Hollywood event with her blown-out hair styled in a bow bun with a few braids sweeping over her face to create a side bang.

Whether you're fully tucking your ends away in knotless braids or incorporating small braids into simpler hairstyles like buns or ponytails, braids are surprisingly versatile, and Chase Infiniti's red carpet hair only proves that there's so much that can be done with them.
