Title: Clip on Man Buns?
Post by: Cave Dweller on November 11, 2015, 11:10:09 AM
I am tempted to order one and stick it on my head with duct tape -  like a Real Man.

I wonder if they come in my shade.

I was going to ask - what do we clip it on to?   :D

The whole man bun thing has got to be one of the dumbest fads we've seen in quite some time.

Dang.

They only come in a Black, Brown or Blond.

No Gray.

I guess the maker doesn't think we old guys want to look trendy.

The next obvious evolution of the man-bun:

This is not your father's man bun, Cave Dweller.    :D

Maybe surgical glue would work?  I suggest you give it a try and post a photo for us :)

You first.  It doesn't come in my color.   :D

That is hysterical, (and so very sad!)

I ought to buy a couple of these and keep them at my station at Barber School!

Look what I got in the mail today!

It is supposed to look so natural, no one will notice. Now I really am going to look in style.

Can't wait to test it out at the beach this weekend!

The thing I can't quite get my head around about things like man buns (the real ones, not these clip-on jokes) is that at some point somebody makes a conscious decision to wear his hair like that.  I just don't get how anyone arrives at such a point.   ???

Razor, I have a feeling those guys look at us and harbor similar thoughts.

I think the bun looks rather ridiculous, but hopefully it is just a fad like the mullet.

Hey, I thought the mullet was cool, although I never had one.

This thread is SO funny!  Now I want one too! It's so ugly!

Can I get it before Christmas? 

I'll get one for my son in law. He's not bald, tends towards super shaggy. Just add a bun.  Funny.

I had a mullet when I was about 15, I even had it permed at the back, as was the fashion, ha ha. This was also the time when Sun-in, a dye you would spray and then blow dry was popular. Crimes against hair were committed.

I had a man bun when I was 20 or so. I had long hair and it was thick so I just used to whack it up in a knot as (I thought)  it looked kinda cool at the time. I obviously was way ahead of my time. Sadly these days there wouldn't be much of a bun. Oh I miss hair.

There is another weird hair fad running amok amongst the young and hirsute - topknots!

They let the hair on the top of the head grow to unlimited lenghts and keep the back and sides buzzed short.  Then they fold the hair up into a topknot!  I have seen many of these come into the barber school lately.
