Macaron Hair: The Low Space Bun
Not to be confused with macaroons, which are small cakes made with ground almonds and coconut, macarons(JPG) are a circular French meringue made with egg white, typically with a flavored filling. That distinction becomes most relevant when looking at this fun new hair trend that’s been blowing up French Pinterest: It’s a look that features a pair of smaller, circular low-lying space buns, hence “macaron hair.” We all know the space bun as the clubby look that went super-mainstream early this year (we can thank the runways for that). But this twist looks a bit more relaxed and, yep, you can say more laissez-faire than its predecessors. Not only is it coiled looser around itself, it also lies lower near the nape, making it an ideal last-minute look (leave it to the French to make rushing out the door trés belle). Scroll on for a few easy ways to cop this look. Perfect timing too, for these relentless summer heat waves!
