Keep Your Head High and Your Man Bun Higher

Look out for the man bun

Keep Your Head High and Your Man Bun Higher

Ladies, gentlemen, and all other species — we have found something that has brought evolution together for the first time ever: the man bun.

If you are lucky enough to see one coming your way down the street, you best snag the man immediately. These man buns are rare. The style is up-and-coming, and many trend-followers have not yet been allotted the proper amount of time to grow one. 

If you are not sure what this craze is, I give my deepest apologies. You are missing out. For the unknowledgeable, unfortunate ones who have not heard of the man bun, let me explain.

The man bun is simply a way of life. Any man who is brave enough to show off his man bun, is sure to have ladies flocking. Simply, a man bun is the same as a woman bun. When your hair is too long or just in your way, you throw it up in a bun with a ponytail holder. High bun, low bun, messy bun, you name it. There is no discrimination here, as men are surely allowed to do the same as women when it comes to buns.

Perhaps you think this trend is a bit feminine. Well, think again. Along with a man bun usually comes facial hair, big muscles and a confident man at your disposal.

You don’t have a man bun? Don’t fret. Any male, who is capable of growing hair, is capable of having a man bun. Time, patience, and experienced grooming is required, but with some practice — and some help from your girlfriend —  your man bun will be perfected in no time.

Although this new trend is becoming wildly popular, some may still not have been blessed enough to have seen a man bun in person. You may find some popping out over the top of crowds in some locations more than others, so listen up. Where to find man buns: the gym, where long, luscious hair needs to be pulled back, or perhaps on a soccer field, where they potentially may have been invented decades ago. Regardless, man buns exist everywhere. Find them at your own risk.

Although there are endless perks of man buns, one is that they can be dressed up or down. A more loose, untamed, look is perfect for everyday play, while a more slicked back bun is perfect for a fancy occasion or even a red carpet appearance. The evident versatility is endless.

Should you be lucky enough to come across a man with a man bun, or, dare I say, date one, you should indeed admire it (and, of course, him). This exclusive hairstyle is for bold, brave and confident men only. Always compliment a man with a bun when you see it, and then let the bun do the rest of the talking.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
