How can you be sure if you are a real bun-head or not? Anyone with hair long enough to wrap into a bun, at one time or another, has thrown their hair up and off their head. If you only occasionally put your hair up into a bun it doesn’t qualify you are a die hard as a true bun-head. Listed below are the true qualities of a die-hard, genuine bun-head: 1. A real bun-head is a ballerina, ballet student or retired ballet dancer who learned the ways of hard core bun hair design during long days in dance class. 2.

A bun head has a huge collection of bobby pins, rhinestone clips, pony-tail holders, and bun covers in a million different styles, shapes and colors 3. Bun heads prefer their hair up and feel awkward or strange when their hair is allowed to hang loosely down around their shoulders. 4.
