Bun (hairstyle)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A bun (also known as a Bobtail) is a type of hairstyle, typically worn by women, where the hair is pulled back from the face and tied in a small knot, typically on the back of the head or neck. They can either be secured with a hairpiece, a hairnet and bobby pins or simply by bobby pins. They may be tightly gathered or slightly messier and more informal. Buns, like ponytails, may cause headaches if worn too tight or up too high on the head.
Also known as a "ballet bun," this hairstyle is used by all female ballet dancers (with a few exceptions). Ballet dancers often use hairnets and bobby pins to make the bun as tight and neat as possible. This is especially important while turning, as loose buns may fall out.
