Side Bun

Side buns are great off-center hairstyles that give anime characters a unique charm right away. This is more formal than a ponytail but less formal than a perfectly centered updo. Nice older sisters, classy young mothers, and people attending formal events like summer festivals in yukatas wear this style. Frame a character's face beautifully and leave one side of their neck open to give them a soft, mature, and playful energy.

Illustrators may think a side bun makes a portrait more interesting. The bun is off-center, so the artist must create a dynamic and balanced composition. Soft shading highlights the bun's complex twists and layers, and they often point out the hair's swoops and gathers. Cute accessories like floral hairpins, tassels, and ribbons look great when the character moves. This style works well in profile shots and over-the-shoulder shots.

Wallpaper featuring a character with a side bun is a classy way to improve your screen. Stylish characters and hairstyles make this a good choice. Whether worn with a casual outfit or a traditional kimono, this hairstyle is elegant.
