The high bun now a popular look

[levette]

I went on some errands today and noticed that a lot of the ladies and girls that I saw were wearing their hair in a high bun. Maybe because my hair was also in a high bun today made me notice it. It was kinda strange actually and I guess this is the latest fad for the summer hot weather.

 

[pink219]

Yeah. That's how I wear my hair these days too.

I want to wear one but my hair is baby fine. I'd need a supplement and I'm too lazy to get some hair and attach it.

High buns are the uniform hairstyle at my college. We're all walking around with our messy high buns, t-shirts, yoga capri pants and Starbucks cups permanently attached to our hands.

high buns have always been IN. its not really something that popped up. Its definitely a normal occurrence college look. A lot of white and asian (korean) girls wore high buns. Neat or messy. I rock it time to time. Actually the asian girls rock high buns the best IMO

 

[SuchaLady]

Nothing new. Girls in my classes, every race under the sun, myself included, rock those same high buns.

I just discovered how to create a full/big high bun with my own hair and Im rocking it almost every day lately with a scarf as a headband and some big earrings if Im feeling really fancy lol Loving it! I would have been wearing them a long time ago if I had figured it out sooner.

I like it on top because I dont look bald from the front like I do with a low bun in the back. My hair isnt even long enough to have a decent bun or pony because I mini chopped it to the bottom of my neck...but if I put it up in a high puff and then take pieces and wrap them around in one direction until its a full circle, it gives me a great bun! Nice, quick go to style and the hubby even likes it.

The high bun is my main protective style. It has always been in from what I've seen.

 

[cutenss]

I just started wearing my buns high. It gives me a more casual look, than my low buns. And I love the way it looks with maxi dresses. Which is also my summer staple

 

[caribeandiva]

I can't wait for my hair to get long enough to do this style. I refuse to use extensions.

Are these natural high buns or relaxed high buns? My hairs shrinks down to a bu not a bun.

I immediately thought of college girls when I read the OP, that is such a college girl look. And Uggs in the winter...
But they have come into fashion of late, I've definitely noticed it celeb wise...

Yes although it's a quick updo that most women (especially in college) have done for ages, I've noticed that's it's more popular this summer and a lot more celebs have been rocking it.

 

[My Friend]

Like Ashanti?

 

[SerenavanderWoodsen]

^^^Yeah, that's the look that celebs have been doing a lot lately...

I love the one Evelyn had on Basketball Wives Reunion. I will post a pic later. My only problem is that my mama and grandmother dont consider my hair "done" like this I think it's because I cant get my hair super sleek. It's so humidity prone. I'm working on it as well as buying some accessories so I can spruce them up a little. Maybe then they'll leave me alone.

The high bun is also one of my main protective styles in different variations.

I LOVES my high buns! I started wearing them the summer before my senior year in high school because I worked outdoors at an amusement park. Now that I have my curls it brings a whole new dimension to it. Though I'm perfecting my curly high bun (or top knot as I usually call it) I'm still loving how it looks in its early coming together stages.

 

[sunnieb]

I've never worn a high bun. I'll try it and see how I look.

yaya24 this is completely off topic but i LOVE that picture in your siggie. there's just something about that artist's work that really resonates with me. love love love it

 

[puffball]

Can shoulder length ladies wear high buns??

 

[Britt]

If my hair were longer I'd def be wearing a high bun all the time. I also like a low sleek side bun. That's one of the benefits of having longer hair, all variations of buns.

High buns are cute but I don't prefer them on me unless my hair is straight and Im wearing bangs. I have a heart shape face (and a big head) so I need to wear buns in a way where there is still some hair to frame my face..

High buns look so durn cute on other people though.
