Bunches and Pigtails

Under the haircut section they are called Bunches and in the description it explains they are also called pigtails. But in the long hairstyles section they are called Pigtails. For consistency I think we should have the name be the same for both section and the other name in the description.

My question is which should the name be, Bunches or Pigtails?

What is this page?

There's almost no references and many images seem to be self portraits uploaded by people. Is this up to encyclopedic standards? — SourceIsOpen (talk) 22:45, 6 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

As with most lists the sources are at the links. Looks like most of the images are of popular culture figures, and all are illustrative of the described style. If a self-portrait fits the hairstyle then it seems an encyclopedic illustration. This is a popular page and on many days averages one view every minute, so it must be doing something right.
