I mentioned this in stories a couple weeks back that ever since I cut my hair I have been obsessing over hair accessories. I know I could wear them with long hair obviously but I have been having a lot of fun to add things to my short hair! I love that it can totally elevate a look out an outfit when you have a cool clip or headband in your hair. It has also become a bigger trend in the fashion world and that might be an added factor to my obsession as well. I have added many pieces to my hair collection over the last month or so and I figured it was time to share them with you guys! I made a collage for you guys to shop all of the pieces that I am going to share but then I also styled some of the pieces to share how I use them!
Also I want you guys to remember that there is literally no right or wrong way to wear things in your hair. When I first started getting these I would try to figure out exactly how I needed to be wearing them and well I learned that you can do whatever you want. Lol much like how I tell you guys how to build charcuterie boards! DO WHAT YOU WANT. 😂
The first look is a simple headband with your hair down! This is a good day two or three look because I have found that the headband might stay a little bit better with dry shampoo in your hair! I have even added a bit of dry texture spray into my hair to get it to stick in place just a little bit more. If I wear a headband on clean hair I find myself having to reposition and fit the headband all day long because it just has no grit to it. Another fun thing to do with this look would be to curl your hair and add the headband!
A low pony with a giant bow - this is totally a new look for me but I am loving it! It adds so much to a simple look. I try not to make my ponytail too tight to refrain from making myself look like an old English school boy with a low ponytail lol but if I keep my bangs looser then it looks better! This giant bow is great because one, it comes in a pack of 6 or 8 and two, they have the giant clip so you can hold pieces of your hair back that might not fit into your ponytail {this is more of a problem if you have short hair and pieces that fall out of your pony}.
Simple clips to pull your hair back out of your face! There are a couple of ways you can do this… You can either pull back the side that holds the majority of your hair. Or for a more sleek look you can slick back the other side of your hair that has less on it and pin it back that way. I’m very confident that there is a more professional way to explain what I just said lol but oh well. I think you guys get the point.
Half up/half down with a fun scrunchie - I LOVE the look of the ones that have extra fabric almost like tails. Again, I am sure there is a more correct way of explaining this hair accessory. But doing this with your hair can add so much to your outfit. Especially because the majority of the things I wear are fairly plain. I don’t have a lot of clothes that are printed. These can be different prints and patterns and can elevate any outfit!
