What a sixteenth-century English court bun looked like

English women in the 16th century devoted a great deal of their sartorial zeal to headdresses, such as heart-shaped and cave-like ones. One of the most distinctive was the use of one's own hair to form an oath above each sideburn, which was then covered with a hairnet and fastened with a beautiful ribbon. Thus, some people had aptly called it sideburns hair ball. Hair ball is big or small, initially according to their own hair, and later with the metal net over the ball, the size of the ball can be arbitrarily determined. They also in the sideburns ball on the upper side with a curved upward wire, on the one hand, to support the large veil, on the other hand, but also constitute two tentacle-like outlines. Later, the semi-circular sideburns evolved into a box, and then from there into a shell, covered with an ornate scarf. Both the sideburns and the scarf could be adorned with a variety of treasures according to one's wishes and means.
