Hair accessory inspiration

Most women envision hair accessories as your run of the mill hair ties and bobby pins to keep the hair up and out of the way. But now there are so many new and chic hair accessories that have made their way into the beauty realm. Hair accessories available today range from charms to head pieces to embellished headbands to ribbons, and crystal clips. 
Whether you like to wear your hair down, half up, in a bun, messy, or in a ponytail, there are a multitude of ways to add bows, ribbons, clips, and barrettes to spice up your look.  Below are some ideas of new pieces to add a fun touch to your look.

Bows

If the thought of tying a bow in your hair reminds you of third grade, today’s styles are anything but juvenile. Added bonus: they only take a minute to take your look to the next level. Simply secure your hair with a bobby pin or elastic, and add a bow of choice on top.

Clips

Clips and barrettes range in so many styles — from dainty and thin to bold and extravagant, with every style in between. There are so many ways to express your personality with clips, from adding a simple barrette where your hair parts, or adding a couple on one side for an asymmetrical cool vibe, or a bunch of small, intentionally placed clips for an ethereal look.
Let us introduce you to some styles using clips…

Headbands

Headbands provide a clever way to keep your hair—whether simply styled or in a more elaborate ’do—in place. For an understated look, choose a headband in a shade close to your hair color for a seamless look. For a bold look, try a contrasting color or an embellished headband for extra pizzaz.
