Top 5 Reasons You Should Try The Ballerina Bun

BeautyRiot Diva

OK, let's state the obvious: It's going to be summer's hottest trend, so you should get a head start on perfecting the look now. In case you haven't noticed, it's already June. (Shocked? Yeah, same here!)

And we all love looking cute as a button in the summertime -- but we also hate firing up the blowdryer when it's already in the 90s. With that said, here are the best reasons (or shall we say, excuses) to wear the ballerina bun.



Reason #1.

We're so over the messy bun. The ballerina bun is waaay better 'cuz it's just as quick to do but it automatically ups your girly, flirtatious vibe. Just look how gorgeous it is on this celeb.














Reason #2.

You don't need to wash your hair as often. (NOW you're listening.) Just brush your hair well to get it sleek and smooth, and it'll hold much better than styling just-washed hair.

















Reason #3.

Who says your work style needs to be drab and boring? The ballerina bun is a cute, simple look for the office. This celeb totally proves you can be chic and professional at the same time.

















Reason #4.

It's a great way to keep hair out of your face when it's hot. A high topknot makes this celeb's face glow, because it sits near the crown of her head and away from her face.
















Reason #5.

It shows off your gorgeous neck (and any sexy tattoos you might have, like this star's). Spritz some perfume behind your ears and you'll be turning heads all summer long.














Bonus reason: John Frieda hairstylist Harry Josh says that pulling your hair up (like in a ballerina bun) is like a mini facelift -- since your face literally gets lifted when you pull up your hair. So you can look younger on top of everything else -- score!

  • And since you don't need a blow dryer for this hairstyle (we're just piling on the reasons now), you might as well try these other blow dryer-free looks while you're at it. Perfect for summer!
