Achieving the perfect space buns is easier than it looks—combining texture, volume, and a celestial twist for a look that’s both edgy and effortless. Whether you're prepping for a night out or a fresh everyday style, mastering space buns elevates your hair game with minimal effort.
How to Do Space Buns: Prep and Structure
Start by washing your hair the day before to enhance texture and volume. Use a sea salt spray or texturizing mousse to create grip and frizz for a soft, tousled base. Gather hair into two sections, twist each into a bun, and secure firmly with flexible buns or bobby pins. For a cohesive space buns look, gently pull out sections to reveal the signature layered, textured exterior while maintaining a smooth core.
How to Do Space Buns: Styling Techniques
Incorporate a light-hold hairspray to hold the style without stiffness. Use a blow dryer on a low heat setting, blow-softening the bun edges while defining the top for a sculpted, celestial silhouette. Add subtle texture with a curling iron or by gently shaking the bun to blend layers. For a more dramatic effect, leave a few strands loose around the face to frame the face and highlight the space buns’ distinctive shape.
How to Do Space Buns: Finishing Touches
Finish with a clear, matte hairspray to lock in style and reduce shine. If desired, add a touch of silver or iridescent hairspray for that cosmic glow. Use a fine-tooth comb to smooth flyaways while preserving the textured look. Store buns loosely and avoid heavy products to maintain the bouncy, space-age aesthetic throughout the day.
With these simple steps, you’ll master the art of space buns—perfect for adding flair and personality to any look. Practice makes perfect, so experiment with texture and placement until you achieve the celestial style that feels uniquely yours. Try your hand today and let your space buns shine.
