How the public really feels about man buns.

“Let’s step it up a little and I can teach you to make a real ballerina bun.”

–Julie Tobiason, Pacific Northwest Ballet Instructor and former Principal Dancer

“Harkening back to ancient Egypt where there was a reversal of gender roles, when women were pharaohs and men were the caregivers of children, man buns are a direct reflection of metro sexuality and the future of our society, where there will be fewer differences between men and women.”

–Sarah Culp, Planetarian, Pacific Science Center

"Generally I say "no". But I have to admit that I have seen them on a couple of guys where it actually works. So I guess my answer is "it depends"!!!

–Sari Chard, Retail Store Manager

"Man Buns I think they’re great if you have one. "

–Joseph M Puggelli, Educator

"I find man buns to be curiously attractive." –Marianne Sweeny expert in SEO
