Step 1: Prepare Your Hair

Before creating space buns, it’s important to prepare your hair. Start by brushing your hair to remove any tangles. Then, decide if you want a middle or side part. Depending on your preference, part your hair accordingly.

Pro Tip: Applying some texturizing spray or dry shampoo can help add volume to your hair and make it easier to style.

Step 2: Create Two High Ponytails

Once your hair is prepped, it’s time to create two high ponytails. Use a comb to gather your hair on the top of your head and secure it with a hair elastic. Repeat the process on the other side. You should now have two ponytails that resemble space buns.

Pro Tip: Use a hair tie that matches your hair color for a seamless look.

Step 3: Twist and Wrap Your Ponytails

Now it’s time to create the actual space buns. Take one ponytail and twist it around the base of the hair tie until it forms a bun. Secure the bun with bobby pins. Repeat the process on the other side.

Pro Tip: If you have shorter hair, you can use a hair donut to create a fuller bun.

Step 4: Secure and Accessorize

After creating the space buns, you can secure any loose strands with bobby pins. You can also accessorize your space buns with scrunchies, hair clips, or headbands. Get creative and make it your own!
