‘Bun lift’ is the bonkers new Instagram trend where celebs pull their hair so tight it gives them an instant face lift
BOTOX is a pricey and often painful procedure, but this bonkers new social media trend is giving celebs an instant face lift without going near a needle.
Stars like Celine Dion, Molly-Mae Hague and Rita Ora are among those to embrace the ‘bun lift’ on Instagram.
To perfect the craze the rule is the higher the bun the better with the tight top knots guaranteed to smooth out any fine lines or wrinkles.
At 51, Celine Dion continues to defy her years – but is her sky high hairstyle helping?
Meanwhile Jennifer Lopez, 50, continues to wow fans with her youthful looks, and has also been spotted adopting the skin-lifting do.
New mum Alesha Dixon also rularly relies on the style, whether it's a simple top knot or with the addition of braids, making it even more skin-tight.
But even celebs in their 20s like Molly-Mae Hague, who is barely out of her teens at a tender 20, is keen to try the skin-stretching style.
Other fans include fellow Love Island alumni Megan Barton Hanson who has been stepping out in the age-defying do on several occasions.
Both Gigi and Bella Hadid have been pulling their tresses back into the style, with both sisters adding a centre parting for a 90s touch.
While Rita Ora added a typically edgy element to her bun in the form of a gelled tip - but in no way does it distract from that super-taught top-not.
And while the celebrities are likely opting for high buns for fashion over face lifts, there is some science behind it.
Celebrity hair stylist Jen Atkin previously told : “To get the hair as smooth and sleek as possible, you really have to tightly comb the hair back and secure it with a hair bungee.
“This will pull the skin on the face back with it, making your face feel tighter and lifted”
