Local and international celebrities are all about the top knot bun. 

Trendsetter Kendall Jenner completed her American Music Awards red carpet look on Sunday night with a top knot and bangs.

Chris Brown’s ex, Karrueche Tran, rocked the exact same hairdo at the awards, while bestie, Christina Milian, opted for a slicked-back version.

Ayanda Thabethe has always been a fan of the top bun, which is a bit more structured than a knot.

This hairstyle is a good way to give your hair a break from wearing a weave or wig.

But don’t go overboard with this hairdo. Tying your hair too tight or wearing a bun every day for a long period of time can cause breakage. 

With summer around the corner, this is the perfect look to keep your hair off your sweaty face.

Check out some of your favourite stars rocking the hairstyle.
