Matt Damon *magically* grew a man bun in just three weeks and the Internet has some feelings about it. The “mun” was not a part of his head at his most recent public appearance on July 28, now it is. But, HOW?
Turns out, this isn’t the first time the actor’s sprouted a man bun overnight. He previously explained on The Graham Norton Show that the luscious locks of hair tied up at the nape of his neck are just extensions for his upcoming film The Great Wall. “There were 700 hair extensions. It was a full day to put them in. They flew somebody all the way to Beijing to put them in.” We’re guessing that the resurgence of the man bun is for re-shoots.
Anyway, here are some mixed reactions from Twitter about the return of Matt’s man bun:
Some people are all in for the sequel:

Others simply don’t understand how his hair “grew” so fast:

Then there are people trying to justify why this is even happening:
