A single hair accessory can transform an everyday hairstyle into a sophisticated look that stands out from the crowd. Here are some tips on how to wear three of this fall’s hottest trends.
Two old classics are back in a big way on this season’s fashion runways: the hairband and the headband. Today, these invaluable accessories are being used mainly for their chic effect rather than for holding back your hair. And while their use may have been restricted to sports and casual wear in the past, they’re now being worn even for special occasions. Wherever you go, you’ll find hairbands of all kinds—designer, fur, leather, diamond-studded—stealing the spotlight. For a can’t-miss look, start up your own collection and choose the one that best matches your outfit.
Hair elastics are turning heads this season, none more so than the popular hair elastic that looks like an old-school telephone cord. Thanks to its spiral shape, it won’t damage or tangle your hair, nor will it mess up your ‘do. The fact that it’s made of plastic also means it’s more hygienic.
Fabric scrunchies are a perennial favourite, of course. They won’t damage your hair, plus they’re available in a huge range of colours and styles.
Another hot trend is to cover up your ponytail elastic with a lock of hair. This is a very stylish and highly practical option if your hair elastic lacks impact. All you need is two or three bobby pins.
The ultimate chic accessory, hair brooches are great with any look. You can even use multiple brooches for an elegant evening hairstyle.
Sometimes, the ideal accessory is one that knows how to be discreet. We love mini-hair elastics that fade into the background, letting your coiffure hog the limelight. They’re the perfect way to tie up your hair.
A hot hairstyle right now is the double reverse French braid.
Create a carefree, ocean-fresh look with full tousled texture, windswept waves, or piecey perfection and a low-sheen matte finish.
