Hair Bun

The hair bun is a very versatile design element that can be found throughout anime. It can range anywhere from the more recognizable "double odangos" look to more elegant single hair buns that accentuate a character's face with a hint of order or beauty. It really shows off an artist's skill with hair texture and fine lines, especially with loose hair included to ground the design. This design is loved by fans because of its ability to be used with a wide range of genres, from magical girl heroes to more classical sword-fighting heroes. It also has a lot of warm orange colors or soft bokeh effects to make the hair shape stand out. And, of course, who can deny that a close-up portrait of an "odango"-type character would look great on a high-res phone lock screen?
