Sleek low bun

Hair gathered at the nape in a compact bun. The short visible outline requires enough underlying length to tie back.

Visible length describes the outline in this illustration, not stretched or underlying hair length.

Ask your stylist

Ask for a low bun with a smooth finish and a comfortable, low-tension hold. This is a styling finish, not a short cut: check that your underlying length can reach the nape before choosing it.

Your routine

Release the style between wears and avoid pulling at the hairline; discuss a comfortable hold with your stylist.

Agree before starting

  • What length and outline should we aim for when my hair is dry?
  • How should we adapt this shape to my texture, density and growth patterns?
  • What should stay the same? Confirm any change to color, texture or overall length.
  • What daily styling, salon upkeep and cost should I expect?

Use this reference to discuss options. A stylist should assess what is practical for your hair before making a change.
