A bun is a type of hairstyle wherein the hair is pulled back from the face, twisted or plaited, and wrapped in a circular coil around itself, typically on the back of the head or neck. A bun can be secured with a barrette, bobby pins, a hair stick, a hairnet, and/or a pencil, and hair may be wrapped around a piece called a "rat". Buns may be tightly gathered, or loose and more informal. In India, it is common for female college professors to wear their hair in a bun, in order to identify with their profession. ==Double bun== Double or pigtail buns are often called , which is also a type of Japanese dumpling (usually called ''dango;'' the ''o-'' is honorific). The term was popularized by the anime and manga series ''Sailor Moon'', whose eponymous heroine, her mother during the Ancient Silver Millennium, Queen Serenity, and her future daughter from the 30th Century Silver Millennium, Chibiusa (although Chibiusa's are more conical than spherical), all wear their hair in this style. They also wear two pigtails of hair that hang down from the two spherical buns, but this is not universal to the term's usage within Japan, itself. The term ''odango'' in Japanese can refer to any variety of bun hairstyle. In China, the hairstyle is known as "ox horns" . 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. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bun (hairstyle)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
