In today's video we're revisiting the man bun we're going to be discussing my hair measurements and how long it will take you to grow out your hair, the best way of actually prepping and styling the hair into a bun and a brief look into how i style. My fit around this hairstyle, as always, if you enjoy or find this video helpful, please drop this video a thumbs up it lets me know you guys like seeing these types of videos subscribe. If you haven't already to keep up to date with the weekly content, this isn't something i usually plug, but if you're looking for an odd bit of hair, inspo be sure to check out my instagram at lucazade quickly touching on hair and measurements, i've been growing. My hair out for a little under two years, i was initially growing it out from a disconnected undercut, so the sides and the back are shorter than the front. The rate of hair growth varies person to person. However, the average is around half an inch to an inch per month if you're looking to grow your hair out specifically for this hairstyle, i think you can expect to wait just a little under two years. I'D say that's about average. Of course, it will ultimately depend on where your hair growth journey starts. What length you're currently at without further ado, let's actually get into the step by step. First and foremost, this hairstyle is best done with second third, even fourth, day hair. That'S because hair with built up oil is a lot easier to work with. It feels more comfortable tied up, and it's probably one of the only hairstyles where it's appropriate to have slightly oilier hair, and so i do highly suggest that you try this style with. Second, third day hair, but for the sake of this video and making this hairstyle replicable we're gon na start with clean washed hair. When washing your hair with this style in mind, i'd suggest using slightly more conditioner than you normally would basically the closest we can get to second third day hair, the better you then want to towel dry. Well, if you've seen my most recent hair, video you'll know it's advice to switch the towel for a t-shirt to avoid breakage. You can skip this step once you've towel dried, but i do highly advise you apply at least a hair oil. This again will make the hair easier to manage, prevent frizz as well as nourish the hair. Hence why i highly advise you don't miss this step i like to follow this up with some sort of hair cream, literally for all of the same reasons i just mentioned, but mostly because it tames frizzy hair, which is usually apparent the day you wash your hair With our hair cream applied we're going to blow dry the length of our hair while simultaneously combing, it's super important. You comb your hair, while drying to prevent any frizziness and ultimately straighten the hair, so that we can tie it up without any hassle. In the later step, once your hair is dried and lying straight, assess whether you want to add any more product to intentionally weigh the hair down, making it easier to tie, if not just proceed to the tying process, start with a hairband on your dominant wrist. For me, i'm right-handed, so the hair band sits on my right wrist. I like to bring all of my hair in the same direction in this case forward. I then cut the hair at the back first working my way upward until i'm able to hold all of the hair. In my dominant hand, it is worth mentioning you, don't really need to worry too much about what hand you're using it's just whatever feels comfortable for you. This is just what feels comfortable for me. I then roll the hair band off my wrist onto the hair and use my other hand to loop, the hair bound around the hair once if i'm going for a looser fit or twice if i want a tighter fit. Typically, i tie my hair up quite loosely because that's just what i find comfortable, but tighterfit can and does look really clean, so yeah, it's just kind of situational and what works with you. And lastly, where you position, the bun ultimately depends on how long your hair is. When i made a man bun tutorial several months ago, my hair was just about long enough to tie meaning i was forced to position the bun very low. Now that my hair is longer i'm quite flexible with where i position it and i like to have it sat just below the crown area, and that is the final look, it's nice and easy, especially if you do the hairstyle with second or third day hair, because You can basically skip out on all the steps i've mentioned now, a brief look into how i style my fit around the man bun. I don't really have any set criteria or regulations per se when it comes to styling my foot. However, generally speaking, i quite like loosely fitted clothing, especially when my hair is styled in a man bun. I feel like it adds to that easy, get off and go type of vibe um. If you're interested in the actual pieces, i'm wearing here, the trousers are from fair play, the shirt is from uniqlo. I got it for like three pounds. It was on sale, which was super super cool. I also typically wear football shirts or football jerseys um anything that kind of gives a boxy but loose fit is kind of my go-to, so yeah, but that brings this video to an end. Thank you guys very much for watching. If you did enjoy it. Please drop a thumbs up subscribe if you haven't already, as always, all the products tools and accessories that i've mentioned throughout today's video will be linked in the description. But until then, i will see you all in the next one. Take care guys bye,
Comments
Luca Santangelo: Hey guys, at the end of this video I briefly feature how I style my fit around the hairstyle. Is this something you'd like to see more of in future videos?
Bilal Naseer: This guy is the reason my hair got way better. His tips and they way he explains is the reason my hair has got so much better
SMOL BRAIN PERSON: Thanks, now I can be Eren
Alex D-M: I’m so happy that I grew my hair out, I’ve always had lots of compliments on my hair, but since I grew it out, it’s been insane!
Naweed Nawaz: Anyone else growing out their hair? Started June 8, let’s see if I can grow it for a year. Update - hit 6 months on Dec 8 & still going strong Update 2 - It’s been 1Y & 1M so far I can’t believe I’m still growing my hair, can do man bun but the sides need a few more inches to have it comfortably in a bun.
Luke Jensen: every time I watch Luca I gain inspiration to keep growing out my hair
Rylee Agulto: Your hair looks great, Luca! You’re definitely one of the people inspiring me to keep growing mine out.
Manas Choudhary: Had my last haircut in January. Hair's pretty long now, long enough to make a small man bun. Hopefully it keeps getting longer. It's hard to grow hair from an undercut but things seem to be getting better now.
Darsh Parekh: I'm close my 1-year hair growth journey and the man bun is starting to come alive. You've been a inspiration all throughout and look forward to more interesting content Luca.
A_987: Great video by luca as always. Just wanted to add that, If you're someone with really short hair and you're discouraged by hearing him say almost 2 years, well don't be. I've been growing my hair out for 7-8 months now and even though my hair isn't as long as Luca's, it's pretty long that I can tie a slight bit. But more importantly, the being able to tie up your hair is just the final bit of the journey. Throughout your growth you'll hit different phases of hair length and each of them are on their own, a new hairstyle. SO PLEASE, DON'T GET DISCOURAGED BY THE TIME. Try to grow out for a few months, watch more of Luca's videos, be cautious about the awkward stages, and if it still doesn't suit you, just short it then :)
Juan Ramirez: I've been growing my hair out since June 2019 and you've been a huge inspiration for my hair journey, I'm probably gonna get a buzzcut in June 2021 but I'll see what happens
The Brick Lord 50: I'm so glad we have the same hair type so I know this is what I will potentially look like in the months to come
STYLEDBYNATE: Literally rocked the manbun daily for the past 3 years! Great video Luca
A1 Abao, Donald Victor P.: I want to grow out by hair cause I got jealous at Eren
Sgt Haddix: i remember watching your videos about 6 months ago trying to decide if i was going to cut or keep growing, currently at shoulder length with my extremely thick and curly hair and bun it everyday
Alexis Vera: Started growing my hair during April/May thanks to this guy he’s my goal :)
PATHOX: Realmente me encantan tus videos, deberias poner subtitulos para los que te vemos desde Latinoamerica y mostras como cortar el cabello largo de vez en cuando
innertamement: Can't wait to have that hairstyle man, it looks dope! Just another year and 2 months to go lmao
Tom_idk: I have very fine and soft hair hair wich is why I never tried to grow out my hair because I thought it might look stupid, but your videos motivated me to start my hair growth so I started growing my hair out 4 month ago. It’s currently 12 inches on the top and about 3 inches on the side I’m going for a middle part look wish me luck
FONEternal: My hair is down to my ass and I do manual labor for a living so I always pull it back at work but I have avoided the bun until recently. Have to say, pretty difficult putting this much hair up and having it stay in place
rapafterparty: came for the pomp, stayed for the bun :)
Kiko: Im in my 1 year and im getting breakage, thank you for this ❤️
Hey Jeff: My hair had dried a bit more than I needed this time and I found it easier to lean back my hair
John Dennis Fajardo: Dude has the perfect hair, cant go wrong with any hairstyle.
MysticValor: Let’s be honest, who came here to see how to have eren jaeger’s man bun?
Oskar: I've shaved my head in april, at the end of august I started to grow out my sides, now I'm rocking some sort of "side pompadour", my sides are 4-5 cm long (even tho they don't seem that long). I'm getting used to longer sides (and puffier face lol) I think that I'm already past the worst stage, I always failed when my hair was 2-3 cm long, I always felt like shit and ended up getting fade as usual lol My goal is to have man bun, but I have a long way in front of me, your channel is my motivation, you made me want to grow out my hair in the first place, hopefully I will comeback to this comment in 1-2 years with full man bun haha
Sonic2Metro: When my hair grows all at the same length I'm doing a man bun more frequently!
Vivaan rajani: Hey Great video luca, Just wanted to ask a question. Is it true that as we tie up our hair too tightly, it leads to hair line receding?
Bilal Jawed: Holy shit Lucas... I'm honestly so flipping grateful I can across your video, like honestly I adore your hairstyle. The loose bun is awesome I just tried it and Holy crap I am in love with it. Thank you some much!
Jason Henrriquez: we started around the same place when we started growing my hair but my hair is literally only slightly shorter than yours and im only six months in, my hair grows so fastttttt.... anyways cheers! thank you for the vids
Hey Jeff: Thank you for this it was very helpful I’m gender fluid and closested to my parents they won’t let me cut my long hair that’s thicker than thick
Abou 7able: Can you do a detailed man bun video showcasing the many styles and how to do them and all that? Thanks Luca!
KUYS & MARS: Im in my 3rd month, Im motivated because of your content. Im looking forward to mimic Luke Hemmings long hair since my hair is wavy ang thick.
Im _TheSUBII3 • 25 years ago: I’m so on and off with this style, I think I’ve transitioned to this style about 3 different times now.
waifu: IM LAUGHING SO HARD AT THE EREN JAEGER COMMENTS
s0lonik: Going for man bun now aswell. After went from a more gentleman, with faded sides to more shorter with fade into now going for an man bun. Wish me luck ,sending you pictures in approximately two years :)

Earl Ozborne: I have a 6 year old son with long hair. His momma is in the hospital(who always makes his hair) so here I am trying to learn this!
CREATOR SAIF: You should definitely try the pony tail type of look I think it would look great!!!

JaMataNe: Ok, might be a dumb question but the ends of my hair curls upward. Is there a way for me to treat my hair so that the ends settle or look natural?
eduard karpoev: Been growing Since October 5th 2019 so can do a decent top knot now, a little bit out from being able to tie it all up

Claire Winograd: My son has long hair now and it's long enough for this. I've been trying to convince him to try a man bun. He's 18 and not likely to listen to me. He also has 2nd/3rd day hair all the time now because he's in lockdown all this time and feels no need for regular showers. How can I convince him to try this style? I think the beard adds to the style very much and my 18 year old can not pull that off right now as his beard is quite patchy and doesn't come in evenly. That'll have to wait for sure.
