Hair Bun Girl is a stick figure character in xkcd. She is distinguished by her hair that is set up in a bun. But she can have several different hair styles and sometimes uses glasses see the gallery below. But the picture here is her most prevalent appearance.

Characteristics

Hairbun is a minor character in xkcd. She appeared two weeks in a row in the spring of 2015 and was recognized as a "new" character at that time, though she had been used several times prior to then.

She is not the same character from comic to comic. She is mainly just another woman that Randall can use when he wishes to give a woman a specific characteristic so to set her aside from the more commonly used women Megan and Ponytail. Often she is depicted together with both Megan and Ponytail proving this point. (Nine appearances as of February 2016: 703, 708, 1052, 1253, 1504, 1507, 1601, 1637 and 1645.)
