Clip In Man Buns...Really?

Man buns, love them or hate them the trend for men to experiment more with their hair is here and this might just be the start!! 


I saw an article on Grazia Daily about how the popular email subscription website Groupon were selling man buns. The Groupon blurb was very tongue and cheek but seeing as over 5000 people have purchased one and the item has a 5 star rating maybe the appeal of an instant style update for men has the same attraction as hair extensions for women, aren't they really the same concept? A quick change of image and you can take them out as quickly as you put them in. 

If you want to read the article itself and see how great the man bun really is here is the link: 

I then saw another article related on the same website about the 'Man Braid'. Another new style that men can experiment with. Apparently the trend started on Instagram and if you search #ManBraid you can find some serious inspiration for your own locks or a male friend who wants to get in on the new trend. At first I feel people might not be too keen on the idea, but personally I think its great that men are being inspired and encouraged to try new styles and step out of their comfort zones. Women are always being told to mix up their styles and not to be afraid to colour clash or wear that neon fur coat that is 'totally in style this season' so why can't men? 

Again I will leave the link below so you can have a read and don’t forget to have a bit of an insta stalk by using #ManBraid. Who knows what kind of braided creations you will find.


Another hashtag to have a look on if you are a fan on the man bun is #manbunsofdisneyland. This particular craze focuses on sharing pictures of handsome men, sporting a man bun, in a Disney park with their children. This might not be your cup of tea, but social media have been going crazy for this. The Manbunsofdisneyland instagram page has over 61 thousand followers. Is it safe to say we haven’t quite got over this trend?
