Trend Alert: The Sunday Bun

January 16, 2008

Ah, I love seeing celebrities looking natural and down-to-earth. This is the kind of hairstyle that everybody wears when you can't be bothered to primp, but you've got to get out of the house and get your day started. I like to call this look the Sunday bun, but really it's just a casual, messy updo that requires only a hair elastic or clip and serves the purpose of getting your hair out of the way.

Katherine Heigl wears hers low, while Hayden Panettiere and Christina Aguilera take it higher. I'd love to see stars stepping out in easy, low-maintenance styles like this more frequently. What beauty look do you wish you saw more of in Hollywood?

i really dont get people saying that they do this or that when their hair is dirty.. what about washing it.. i get it , you shouldnt wash your hair everyday ( even though i do it) but i rather wash it everyday than go out and look like a mess. not to say that it gives such a bad impression.. i hate to see people with greasy hair.. "I don't know anyone who feels like doing their hair and makeup EVERY day..." Well i actually do it.. i just cant leave the house without wash my hair and without my foundation.. ever... not a single day...i had to one day and i spent the day in a really bad mood..

Its easy especially for weekends, and it had that simple undone but not just plain ponytail look.

I do this look when I have no time to blow dry my hair...put it with a head band...and there you go!

I wear buns and braids all the time to keep my waist-length poofy hair from frizzing out too much. It's calmer afterwards. Buns distribute the weight of the hair over a larger surface, so it doesn't give me headaches like pony tails do. Is it just me, or is Katherine Heigl crying in that picture?

I love buns. I usually wear my hair like that all the time, cause it´s comfortable, my hair is getting long and becoming a nuisance- Plus, if you use a nice hair band or barrette it doesnt´t look so sloppy.

This reminds me of when I wear headbands to school because my hair is dirty.

I almost always have my hair in a messy bun. I have really long hair, it's almost to my lower back, so I don't wear my hair down every single day. It's my "I'm so over my hair right now" style of choice. :)

I love the bun. Funny...I love it best when someone has a lot of hair and it is wild and messy, like SJP on Sex and the City. More glam I know than these, but I like the tons of hair made to behave into a bun with pieces falling out. It is sexy.

With so much plasticity (is that even a real word?) in Hollywood it's refreshing to see a more natural look. Now if people would only stop oranging (a.k.a. tanning) themselves!
