Hair Elastics

 

Though hair elastics is a general term used for hair accessories to tie up your mane, it includes scrunchies and ponytails too. The simplest and the best hair ties are the quickest and cheapest way to get the hair out of your eyes and face. Word of caution, rubber bands do not come under this category. If anything, you should stay away from those horrid rubber bands which tug and pull out your hair. Hair elastics can give your hair a snug tug back into a sleek ponytail. To add a more classic look to your ponytail, make sure your hair is straightened out well and hide your elastic with a strand of your hair twirled around it. 

 

Head Scarves and Wraps

 

You can wrap any material and tie it around your head. The only thing to keep in mind is the width and length of the fabric. Some fabrics however do not sit well on the head. The simple way to use these scarves and head wraps is as easy as just to place, wrap and tie it securely. Scarves also preserve your hair from being exposed to harsh elements. They work well with any length of hair. You can flaunt a boho look by using knitted, silk, or bright colored fabrics. They are a perfect look for going shopping or for meeting your friends for a quick coffee. 

 

Hair Pins

 

These are thin metal accessories that are curved at one end and open at the other end. They are easily available in different sizes, colors, and shapes. They also come in plain forms as well as more decorative ones. They are perfect for securing a bun or when you want to try more formal hairstyles like chignons. You can even find hairpins that match the color of your hair to create an invisible hold or add sparkle to it by choosing ones with ornamentation. For fine hair, you might have to use a little bit of hair spray to strengthen the hold. These hairpins can help you create perfect hairstyles for special occasions when you need to do an updo.

 

Headbands

Headbands have always been in fashion and are used by women of every age group. They come in a large variety to choose from. You can get the skinny ones that appear almost invisible to more ornamental ones. The main aspect to look for when buying a headband is to make sure it’s the right size.

They work on long, short, wavy, or curly hairstyles. They are a more preferred accessory when you want to present a casual look and don’t really work well for formal occasions. 

 

Head Pieces
