A single hairbun is a hairstyle sporting one hairbun. To produce a hairbun, hair is pulled backwards and twisted or plaited, then wrapped in a circular coil around itself. The resulting bundle of hair takes the form a bun, hence the name.

A hairbun is often secured with an accessory such as a hairpiece, a hairnet, a hair elastic, or bobby pins. It may be tightly gathered or slightly looser and more informal. A hairbun can be at the base of a ponytail, and, like ponytails, may cause headaches if worn too tight or up too high on the head.

A single hairbun is typically placed on the back of the head or near the neck, aligned with the middle of the body. It can also be produced off-center, on or towards one side of the head, in which case it is a double hairbun, and, unlike the side hairbun, it is not a type of single hairbun.
