Our New Celebrity Hairstyle Crush: The Half Bun

The half bun is the sort of magical hairstyle achieved from indecision: hair up or hair down? Bun or top knot? The result is a hairstyle that can be roughed up at the roots for an easy daytime look or slicked back for a high-impact evening moment. Here, a round up of celebs who have nailed (or pinned) the half-bun look.
