All this talk about updos has really gotten me excited. I've made an appointment for tomorrow morning to get my hair put up. I'm not sure exactly what I'm going to get, so I think I'll just let the hairdresser have fun! The more outrageous, the better, I think. I've always wanted to try this, and you have given me the courage to do it. Thanks.
Good Luck, Dan
Pardon my ignorance, but this is a new word to me.

A bun or some other style that holds all the hair up rather than allowing it to fall into place or be like a pony tail where it's all down. The hair is up rather than down.
its a term used to describe when long hair is taken up, rolled, twirled etc and held secure with hair pins.(french rolls, bubbles, chignons,etc) i personally think they look too feminine on men and have yet to see one that did not look silly in my opinion. and i love long hair on men. i think updos are best left to women and/or men that want to look like women. it may be fun to try at home for some of you all but if you are going for the macho look i'd leave it alone, keep it down boys, keep it down! a french braid is about as wild as i would go if i were a guy, but hey to each his own.

I've done a few updo's on women in school, and they look strange on them too. Musta put a hundred pins in one updo--would have loved to have been a fly on the wall when that poor lady tried to take that updo apart. Hurricane proof, it was . . .

that is interesting . . .
at first, updos looked kind of feminine to me too, but after thinking, i still have not found anything feminine by nature about them. so i was thinking that maybe the cause for my perception of them as feminine is caused by society's standards. like, long hair does not look feminine because enough guys have it. but if enough guys had updos all the time, i wonder if they would not look feminine at all.
