Man bun or no man bun, that is the question.

There is a guy in my office, I would say early to mid 20's who wears his hair in a man bun. I think he looks ridiculous. Anyone else do this or have any thoughts?

    Not for me.
    Reeks of trying too hard.

    Not really my cup of tea, but as long as he doesn't try to dictate how I should look, I will return the favor...
    Overall, in my opinion, very very few men can pull this look off!

    Agreed with all of the above. Sometimes it looks good, sometimes it doesn't. I don't put mine in a bun because it looks ridiculous when I do.

    I seriously want to tell him, please take that down. But it's not my hair so I cringe silently.

    Usually when I see a dude with a bun, I think of a guy who's all kind of eco-friendly and does yoga every morning, doesn't shower, owns a juicer, and thinks vaccinations cause autism.

    Lol, that's hilarious!!!

    It just takes the right kind of people to pull it off.

    alternatively, can you imagine how frightening and lex luthor-like some of these dudes would be if they were bald?

    I would prefer bald over man bun, just sayin.

    I'm a big fan of long hair on guys but this is one trend I just don't like.

    I agree maybe some guys can pull it off, this poor guy can't.

    I can't take anyone with a man bun seriously.

    The messy, careless, just getting this *kitten* off my face man bun is like freaking pheromones. Especially on a tall savage of a man.

    Even the perfectly coifed ponytails are hot. Think Orlando Bloom, Johnny Depp, and freaking Jared Leto!

    But the weird fade perfectly and tightly packed top buns that are getting popular is just like wtf? Idk if it's called a fade but when they've got a square patch of hair and the sides and bottom are shaved. The actually cut is nice but the added bun is just weird.

    My step son wears his in a man bun and it is literally all I can do not to tell him that he looks silly....I love him though and I wouldn't hurt his feelings for anything so I stifle my impulse to comment. His hair is super fine so the "bun" looks more like a little thumb up on the back of his head.

    Lol its what all the cool kids are doing these days. Just roll with it and take lots of pictures so you can clown him about it when he's older and wiser.

    I've known a couple guys who wore them really well - both had curly hair and were kinda artsy - it just 'fit' their persona. I've also seen guys with man buns that seemed like an attempt to disguise poor hygiene and guys who have failed at jumping on a trend. Totally depends on the situation

    I think some men can look extremely hot that way. But also, it's none of my damn business how they wear their hair. I wouldn't want to critique a guy's appearance any more than I would want a guy to judge me based on my boobs or butt.

    I'm not a fan of long hair on a guy in general.

    The man bun is seriously sexy... but it definitely takes the right kind of man.
