    Like any hairstyle, it depends on the person.
    Yes!

    When I had long hair and was doing things where my hair got in the way... I wore one often. Then I cut off all of my hair and donated 14 inches, so no more long hair for me. But I would never buy a fake one. I'd rather take the time to grow my hair back out again.

    I like (or love even...) long hair on a bloke and ponytail is ok and also that sort of half-up samurai look thing is good.... but bun alone.... not so much. A bit too not manly enough in my eyes.

    I do dig the samurai topknot (without the bald patch at the front!!!)

    I like the real rugged "man" look - not the fake groomed neo-lumberjack with a trimmed beard thing - then you look at their hands and they're like softer than mine. Meh.

    I spent my 20s in a ski community and saw many a rugged, long-haired mountain man wearing a bun not as a fashion statement but rather for utility when doing rugged, sporty, mountain-man things. Ditto beach sport dudes with buns. Sexy in that context. I find it sort of annoying that this is even a thing. It's just a freaking bun.

    Mmmm, rugged sporty mountain men.

    And I agree with the context thing. Necessity bun is way sexier than fashion bun.

    Nice about the hair donation! I have a couple of male friends that did that as well. Was sad to see the locks go, but such an awesome reason.

    yes - necessity bun is fine. When I did martial arts there were a couple of guys to bunned their hair during training. That was fine.

    Groomed bun in the problem.

    Not a fan of them, however it is not my head or my hair so whatever floats your boat.

    Definite YAY.

    I love them. I think they're totally hot.

    Also, it kind of pisses me off when people say they're "not masculine" or whatever. Like, really? It's hair. Whether or not a dude is masculine or not has very little to do with what's atop his head.

    Frankly, I love that more and more people are taking things that are traditionally 'feminine' and 'masculine' and making them more gender-neutral, and therefore wearable/useable by all. It's how it should be, IMO.

    But back to the man bun. Yes, I love them, and not just because of the aforementioned reasons. They really are very sexy and stylish. Love 'em.
