The male bun hairstyle became popular among hipsters last year. Before that, many men with long hair went with a bun on their heads, but no one paid much attention to this – until the bun became a trend.
Not so long ago, men’s hairstyles with long hair and a careless tail were considered a sign of rebellion and an immoral lifestyle. Often, a men’s hairstyle with a tail was associated with the fact that he does not have a permanent residence, and such a choice of hair decoration is not a tribute to fashion but the inability to carry out hygiene procedures.
The time has come for experiments and vast opportunities for self-expression. Of course, it is worth remembering that to create a men’s hairstyle with a ponytail or a short tail, and you need clean and healthy curls. And the usual tail or bun is not all that hairdressing offers at the moment. Stylists distinguish several haircuts in which you can tie a ponytail and create other men’s hairstyles.
Advantages and disadvantages
Like any male or female hairstyle, the ponytail has advantages and disadvantages. It is worth checking them out in advance. After all, only one minus can make you refuse to perform a particular haircut.
Advantages:
- Practicality – It is a fantastic option that combines style and simplicity. It is enough to twist the ponytail at the top, and the male image goes to the year’s top trends. But do not think that the tail is salvation when you do not want to wash your hair. Dirty hair is as visible in a ponytail as in a loose state. Disguise them will not work;
- Minimum installation time – But you can save time styling men’s hairstyles. In most cases (if the hair is obedient), it is enough to dry the hair with a hairdryer and collect it in a bun;
- Variability – I do not think the ponytail is the only styling option. There are a lot of them. The main thing is not to be lazy and learn new tricks.
The main disadvantage of the ponytail
The inability to wear such a haircut in educational institutions, companies, and organizations with a strict dress code. Hiding your hair will not be easy. In addition, a men will have to care for the hair itself; otherwise, the hairstyle will look messy and look like a wash cloth.
