What's with all the man buns? (1 Viewer)

[JohnnyU]

Didn't that go away around the same time as Steven Segal's popularity?  What's even funnier are those that don't even have enough hair to be wearing one.  They look ridiculous on dudes.

Ya, try working on SF and living in la....they are everywhere...

Must be getting them laid or they wouldn't wear them.  As usual, blame women.

The women they are walking with are equally horrible.....they can have them. Honestly we are talking Renaldo here.  These are the cheesey emo's that are going o college or think hey are cool because they live in SF....

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

I thought this was going to be about assless chaps and gay pride parades.

I know, all chaps are assless.

Meh...pretty sure my dad thought that any man with a Beatle hair-cut back in the day was a homo.

It is a HRC supporter thing.   HTH.

And what?

Exactly. 

 

[General Malaise]

Now that I've grown my hair out, I've started using one to keep the hair out of my face.  I think it's rather stylish and I've been noticing a lot more chicks checking out my legs/assss.

 

[AAABatteries]

Didn't sumo wrestlers start this?  Who knew they would be on the forefront of men's hair styles.

Exactly.  A couple of fashion forward guys give it a try, friends notice it's getting them chicks (in this case mostly because it seems to show you are willing to be different), then they start doing it.

That's not the man bun, it's the short skirts you wear.

It goes back hundreds of years when men in Asia wore their hair up.

You don't say? I haven't noticed....

They are growing up in a time where people don't judge them by their hair.

Not really.  We're being judged in this very thread.

I don't really know what to say so  

Ok, not really ridiculing here. Just amazed that it's been so many years.

"Did you know that Paul McCartney was in another band before "Wings?"

I wish.. Never heard that term in my life.

P.S. - I stand with other guy's dad on this one.

Yes.. all the rage in the FFA these days.

 

[Franknbeans]

yeah, my wife and daughter refer to our next door neighbor as man-bun. 

I think they are talking about his hair

Methinks you're confusing Manbun with Mullet bro.

 

[Doug B]

Did any particular famous person start the man-bun trend? Or did it kind of come about organically?

IIRC, David Beckham had one way before I saw anyone else with one (~ 5 yrs or more ago).

 

[sbonomo]

Soccer players in general?  Then you have the hipster soccer crowd (typicaly person i see rocking this style) that have fallen in like sheep waiting to be sheared.

Business in the front and business in the back.

David Beckham started the trend, then Tom Brady, then about every male actor that women gush over (Hemsworth, Farrell, Gyllenhal, Dicaprio) followed suit. 

These are all men with high status, money, fame, looks, etc. The man bun had little to with women's attraction to them, but your average joe hipster/hippie thought that if he too grew his mop out long enough and borrowed a hair tie from his bff that girls might swoon over him. The man bun will help pull if you live in a hippy or outdoorsy community (mostly the legal weed states) or coastal California. 

For civilized people now the trend is the Hitler Youth or SS haircut.

Yeah, it's never the ones you hope.

Hope?

Think.

 

[Fred Flintstone]

I had to Google manbun.

Being  that they are British...good chance your dad was right.

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

Yes, no American ever had a Beatle haircut.

In case you haven't seen it.  Even worse than a man bun.  Stop the knot!  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8YgTaMyZRk

Funny, sure.  But fairly hypocritical when the dude has a #######' Rollie Fingers 'stache and neck tats. 

 

[E Street Brat]

I saw clip on man buns on Amazon.

Must be for the weekend hipster.
