Move over Man Bun, Because the Man Braid is Here ...

By Jennifer • Feb 16, 2016 MD

Love it or hate it, the man bun may finally be on its way out, replaced by something even sexier (or, if you're not into it, ickier). Will the man braid have the hipster staying power of the man bun, undercut, or the full beard? Time will tell, but for now, let's just bask in the glory of men with braids, shall we?

    Oh wow...some look neat, but I'm glad my husband is not into that.

    I bet by the time I'm in my thirties, all men and women will look and dress so confusingly that I may cry.

    Wow. Hate the gender stereotyping in the comments. It's 2016 I thought we were past judging like that. :( all men are "real" men. Just like all women are "real" women no matter what they wear or how they choose to look.

    Oh dear me, will the feminization of men never stop? Men need to act and look like men not this feminized version. This is hype by the dominate media culture trying to normalize alternative life styles. Listen up people there is only one Godly life style, even in the Bible is condemns men dressing as women.

    Well then you to enjoy sharing your hair accessories, makeup and clothes with your beau. To each their own and I prefer manly men. And I never said they couldn't do what they wanted I just simply stated that I prefer a mans man.

    Why all the hate? Men can wear buns, men can wear braids. It's cool. It's 2016. Let's stop deciding for other people what they can and can't look like, shall we?  ^_^
