Bun Hairstyles
Buns are the most reliable way to get hair off your neck without looking undone. A sleek low bun reads polished for the office, while a messy top knot works for workouts or casual days.
What's the difference between a bun and a top knot?
A bun sits lower, usually at the nape or mid-back of the head, and reads more formal or polished. A top knot sits high on the crown and has a more casual, undone quality — both work with sleek or textured finishes depending on the occasion.
Leave face-framing pieces out of a sleek bun to soften the look without losing polish.
Backcomb the crown slightly before gathering hair for a top knot that has volume, not just height.
Use a few bobby pins in an X pattern to secure a bun — more secure than pins placed in parallel.
