With Pinterest, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok filling our feeds daily with the prettiest hairstyles and helpful hacks, we’re never short of hair ideas. But the only drawback to the countless pinned styles we all vow to practice is that they are pretty hard to master. Yes, we’d all love to show up to our work meetings or dinners with friends wearing an intricate dutch-fishtail braid or cascading mermaid waves, but unfortunately, not all of the styles we lust after are easy to accomplish. Even if we dedicate a few hours to standing in front of our vanity mirror, sometimes all we’re left with is sore arms and a mediocre hairdo.
Low bun hairstyles, on the other hand, are right up our alley. Not only are they right on trend with all of our favorite influencers and celebrities, but a low bun might be one of the easiest styles yet. They can be scraped back into a neat ballet bun or worn loose, for just-got-out-of-bed chic. Plus, there’s always the slicked-back bun option, or even a treatment bun.
With multiple ways to wear the style, the options are endless. Whether you’re looking for a low bun hairstyle that features a fun braid or inspiration for a messy low bun hairdo, scroll on to see how others have taken this basic bun to stylish new heights.
