It’s hard not to love Whitney White, more popularly known as Naptural85. The beauty blogger’s sunny disposition is infectious and her natural hair tips are incredibly easy to replicate. We’re not ashamed to admit that we constantly check her social accounts for new styles to copy and the latest does not disappoint.

You guys asked to see how I put the style in my "Snapchat Q&A" video together, so I filmed it for you! Watch how I put this QUICK + EASY hairstyle together at YouTube.com/Naptural85 "Perky Space Buns" video linked in bio XO! 💗 #NaturalHair

This summer, double buns made a mini comeback and now everyone (including myself) covets the ’90s hairstyle. If you’re a naturalista looking for ways to keep your old (dirty) hair in check before a long, overdue shampoo, this “Perky Space Buns” tutorial is a must watch.

Whitney uses her very own DIY butter to hold the hair in place with just a couple hair elastics and soft bristle brush. Seriously, it’s too easy to not try. Watch the tutorial below.
