For this look, it’s a good idea to grab a strand of hair and wrap it around the hairband that holds your buns. Even when they’re supposed to be messy, having your hair hiding the hairband is a nice detail to add to the contrast.

Tight Buns and Short Bangs

Short bangs are in and they look incredibly cute when paired with some tight space buns. In this specific look, the makeup and hairstyle go hand in hand to create a fun and young look. Note how the buns are styled without much product, we have a couple of loose hairs here and there, but you don’t always need to go for a completely neat look.

Symmetrical Space Buns

As classic as they come for the most well-known version of the space buns, this hairstyle is on point. As are these two buns on their head. The most important part to execute correctly when trying to recreate this look is the symmetry between the two buns.

If you go for a more messy look you might get away with the buns not being aligned too well, but when you’re going for a minimalistic space bun hairstyle like this one, you want your buns to be in the right place. Just like your eyebrows frame your face, your buns will frame the whole look. Finish styling with some hairspray and you’ll be good to go!

Space Buns with Long Wavy Hair

Long hair could mean that your buns will be heavier and that alone may or may not have an impact on how you feel after a whole day of wearing them.

If the length of your hair is seriously a concern that’s stopping you from rocking a style like this, a half-up half-down situation might be the better option for you. In this look, we see the buns being high up and the other half of the hair is left loose. Consider how much hair you want to tie up into the buns and start working with that.
