A bun is a type of hairstyle in which the hair is pulled back from the face, twisted or plaited, and wrapped in a circular coil around itself, typically on top or back of the head or just above the neck. A bun can be secured with a hair tie, barrette, bobby pins, one or more hair sticks, a hairnet. Hair may also be wrapped around a piece called a "rat".[1][2] Various hair bun inserts may be used to create donut-shaped buns.[citation needed]

Double or pigtail buns are often called odango (お団子),[3] which is also a type of Japanese dumpling (also called dango). The term odango in Japanese can refer to any variety of bun hairstyle.[citation needed]
In China its very common among young girl or women, having two buns hairstyle which called Yaji (丫髻) or shuangyaji (丫髻) </ref>. Name comes from having hair bun, often two buns on either side of the crown of the head giving the hair a shape similar to chinese character 丫.[4] This hairstyle can be seen in many different chinese dynasties. There are also other hair styled called niújiǎotóu (牛角头).[5] It was a commonly used hairstyle up until the early 20th century, and can still be seen today when traditional attire is used. This hairstyle differs from the odango slightly in that it is gender neutral; Chinese paintings of children have frequently depicted girls as having matching ox horns, while boys have a single bun in the back.
In the United States they are called side buns, also known as "space buns", and were a popular festival hair trend in the 1990s.[citation needed]
Star Wars: The Force Awakens had Rey debut a "triple bun" hairstyle.[6]

Men in ancient China wore their hair in a topknot bun (Touji 頭髻); visual depictions of this can be seen on the terracotta soldiers. They were worn until the end of the Ming Dynasty in AD 1644, after which the Qing Dynasty government forced men to adopt the Manchu queue hairstyle (queue order).
Men of the Joseon Era of Korea wore the sangtu as a symbol of marriage. 16th century Japanese men wore the chonmage for samurai warriors and sumo wrestlers. [citation needed] In the west, topknots were frequently worn by "barbarian" peoples in the eyes of the Romans, such as the Goths, Vandals, and the Lombards.[citation needed] Later, the hairstyle survived in the pagan Scandinavian north (some believe the topknot hairstyle contains elements of Odinic cult worship)[citation needed] and with the eastern nomadic tribes such as the Bulgars, Cumans and Cossacks.[citation needed]
Historical examples of men with long hair using this style include:
- The Hindu deity Shiva
- 6th-7th century BC — Buddha
- 3rd century BC — Terracotta Warriors of China
Rishi knot
[edit]The rishi (sage) knot is a topknot worn by Sikhi boys and men as a religious practice, in which the hair is formed into a bun. In the Sikh tradition, a turban is then worn atop the bun.[7][8] This hairstyle is also known as joora, and has been traditionally worn by Hindu mendicants.[9]
Man bun
[edit]The man-bun is a topknot influenced by the Asian style worn by long-haired men in the Western world. In London, the modern man-bun style may have begun around 2010, although David Beckham sported one earlier. The first Google Trends examples started to appear in 2013, and searches showed a steep increase through 2015.[10] Some of the first celebrities to wear the style were George Harrison, Jared Leto, Joakim Noah, Chris Hemsworth, Leonardo DiCaprio, Scot Pollard, and Orlando Bloom. The hairstyle is also associated with Brooklyn hipsters.[11]

Rey's triple bun is the latest evolution in Star Wars hair history—after Leia's twin buns and Padmé's black Kabuki wig—and it puts a surprisingly modern spin on interstellar style. And so we wondered: Like the Katniss Everdeen braid and the Mad Max buzz cut before it, could the Star Wars triple bun become the next cinematic hairstyle with crossover appeal to hit the streets?
