The Best Fake Hair Bun

Buying Guide

When picking out a fake hair bun, consider not only your own hair’s color and type (curly, wavy or straight) but also the look you want to have. You might also wish to have a variety of styles at your disposal, so a hair bun for formal affairs and one for workdays could work well for you. Alternatively, some accessories are versatile and can be styled on their own.

There are a variety of pre-styled hair buns on the market. Many are designed to make your mornings faster and easier by limiting your time in front of the mirror. With accessories like these, you can quickly curate a selection of different looks for different occasions.

Although some hair extensions use clips or require weaving into your existing hair, many products are built around durable scrunchies, making them faster and easier to put on.

Some fake buns can be styled, while others will always look the same as when they are purchased. Be aware of the material before attempting to style yours. Treating each material as per manufacturer instructions will extend the lifetime of the product.

• Use cold water and gently wash natural hair in a bun.
• Use dry shampoo on synthetic hair buns.
• Synthetic material will melt easily, and it shouldn’t be curled or straightened.
• Kanekalon can be “set” in hot water, allowing you to curl or straighten it without harming the material.
• Natural hair can be dyed, but generally can only be dyed a darker color than it started out.
