Man braids are the new man buns

The Shaved Head Man Braid
It's unclear if the man braid rules state that each man must shave the sides of his head before embarking on a man braid, but that seems to be the trend.

The Man Braid Bun
Some men don't want to totally give up on the man bun, so they're easing their way into the man braid by also keeping the bun. Baby steps.

Move over man buns, men have stepped their hairdos up a notch -- three notches to be exact. And then they twist those three notches together to create glorious, masculine, perfect braids. Man braids.

Man braids are the newest trend among men with long-ish hair. Perhaps guys are just tired of casual buns, or maybe they're interested in taking those buns a step further to create something a little more exciting to look at, or maybe braids keep the loose strands out of their faces. Either way, we're super happy about this new addition to the world of man beauty.

Let's discuss what this means. If men can braid their own hair, they certainly shouldn't have a problem braiding our hair, right? What could be better than having your boyfriend, husband or guy friend braid your hair for you? It happened to me once, but he was gay and a hairstylist, so technically it doesn't count.

Take a look at some really impressive man braids we found. The men attached to the braids aren't so bad either.
