New trends are increasingly aimed at ordinary people, at what they use, wear and generally what they like. In fashion, designers often draw inspiration from street style. Self-confident people on the street have the courage to combine unusual and eye-catching different items of clothing. Suddenly new hairstyle trends emerge, like the half bun. Many women know it from their everyday lives as a particularly simple, quickly made half-bun on the top of the head.
Half Bun is quick, looks super cool and goes with almost every look. It can be tied very precisely and elegantly, as well as unusually and loosely. In addition, this trend hairstyle is suitable for every hair type and length. In a few step-by-step instructions, we reveal some simple methods on how to tie your own hair into a half bun.
The half bun made a splash in 2015. But today he still counts as onethe top hairstyles, which convey a youthful, casual appearance. Stars like Julianne Hough, who is known for her individual girlish style and charming elegance, like to tie her blonde hair into a loose half bun on the top of her head. Even royals, including Duchess Kate, often prefer this practical hairstyle in its elegant, subtle version.
It's understandable that new trendy hairstyles are very, very rarely desired by both sexes at the same time, but the half bun is. This is because the hair only needs to be long on the top of the head, in the front part, so that a small hair bun can be tied. In recent years, men's hairstyles with long top hair have become popular. The hair on the neck is worn short to shaved. You can easily tie a small bun on the top of your head. One of the first to appear in public with such a hairstyle was football star David Beckham. He has set several trends with his individual clothing style and hair styling. In 2010, when he played for LA Galaxy, he wore his hair longer on the top of his head and often tied it up in a casual topknot.
The exact reason why this trendy hairstyle has still been very popular since 2015 is because it is particularly practical and is perfect for every hair type. With the half bun, as the name makes clear, the hair is only partially knotted up and the rest remains open. After a day or two of washing, the hair collapses and loses all volume on the pillow. However, if a bun is styled in this area, this unpleasant effect can be hidden.
First the top hair is separated from the rest. A handle comb helps or you can work with your fingers. Try to separate the sections of hair on the right and left sides.
With this hairstyle, similar to any updo, the hair stays in place if it is not freshly washed. Ideally, 1-2 days have passed since you last washed your hair. Depending on the situation, the fine hair can be loosened up a bit. use dry shampoo or curl in loose waves with a curling iron. There should be a natural, unobtrusive effect.
You can separate just the top hair or tie the whole front part up to the ears. After you have separated the hair, it is important to brush it back smoothly and without tangles. You can shape the bun at the top of your head or at the top of your head. Now the hair is tied into a high braid and then pulled through the hair elastic. The second time you pull it through, wrap a loop and then wrap the rest of the braid around it.
Finally, secure with hair clips so that the hair tie remains invisible under the hair. It is advisable to use hair clips that are very similar to your hair color. Put these into your hair with the wavy side down to ensure a better hold.
For really thin, fine hair, we recommend incorporating one strand of hair extension into the half bun. This way the bun will look really good and lush without having to sacrifice too much of the loose hair.
If a naturally loose and casual look is desired, the half bun can still be pulled into place. Especially if you have thin hair, you can loosen it up a bit and stretch it out a little.
The method that works easiest is not to use a hair clip. Here we recommend using a thin hair tie that matches your hair color. Simply tie the hair on the top of your head loosely into a small knot and also secure it loosely. The aim is to create a very informal, everyday 'out-of-bed look'.
The half bun can look really chic when the hair is properly combed and straightened. All the little unruly strands that make the hairstyle appear chaotic are brought into order with wax cream. One idea would be to braid the top hair and then wrap it.
As we have not mentioned in other posts, long hair is very popular among men at the moment. The length is variable, as are the possible stylings. In the golden mean between long and short are new hairstyle trends with top hair. The upper part of the hair is noticeably long and the hair at the back of the neck is cut short, even shaved.
Casual and a bit wild, men with half buns and very short hair on both sides look like real city warriors. This new trend hairstyle is still known as the samurai bun and is very popular with stars. Bradley Cooper, Leonardo di Caprio, Jake Gylenhal and many others from the art scene once left their hair half-length and wore it casually tied at the top of their heads. But the same applies to everyone - the longer the top hair, the wilder the braid!
