Hi Matt:
6-max has a substantially higher variance than full ring, and headsup is even higher than 6-max. (Of course, your edge is also higher in those games, but not sufficiently so to cancel out the effect of variance in my experience.)
You may want to be advocating different ceilings for each. While I think a full ring nit could get by with 20 buyins, I think a 6-max guy might want 35 and a HU specialist 50.

mmm.. i disagree with some of this.. a HU specialist is also good at finding idiots to play HU where there is VERY little variance assuming they dont quit you. holla

There are Hu games out there that you could play with a 5 buyin BR and never go broke, I dont think you could say that for almost any 6 max gamme you can find.
