Headbands

Hairbands have been worn since Ancient Egypt. In ancient times, unmarried girls adorned their heads with this accessory. But in the 80s, they became an attribute of sports training or jogging. They are worn with pleasure by women, children, and men.

Types of hairbands

If earlier manufacturers adhered to some specific criteria in the production and decoration, now these boundaries have been erased. Fashion designers are glad to use them at fashion shows, and women complement their elegant image. Designers offer various solutions for all occasions:

• Fabric, leather, synthetic, knitted, lace.
• Of different widths. It can be a strip of half a centimetre or, on the contrary, covering almost half of the head.
• Decorated with feathers, stones, rhinestones, beads, and even precious crystals.
• With embroidery. Such accessories look very ethnically with the same style of clothing.

There are solid hair bands, that is, of the same width along the entire length and more comfortable ones, with a thin elastic band in the part that is under the curls. The second type is more comfortable since the fabric does not lift the locks, but only hold them in the front and near the ears.

Benefits of such accessories

Although some consider them a relic of the past, they still periodically return to fashion, constantly changing their appearance and material of manufacture. The point is:

• This is the best way to remove bangs or fix short side strands during the workout.
• The strip absorbs sweat well during sports or in hot weather.
• In winter, warm options made of wool or thick fleece are worn instead of a hat by those who dislike hats.
• They help create an image in hippie, retro, ethnic, and many other interesting styles.

How to choose

Hairbands are suitable for all face types and any lengths of the strands. To purchase the right product, you should select the correct width. Owners of a low forehead are advised to wear a thin accessory along the hairline, and if the forehead is high, then it can be covered with a wide cloth accessory.

Hairbands combine elegance and practicality. It all depends on the decor and material of the tape. Plain solid coloured goods are great for sports and everyday use, while lavishly decorated ones are a great solution for a stylish urban look or a formal outfit.

If you can't decide whether to purchase it, check out the popular types of styling that involve the use of a ribbon as an accent:

• Greek styling does not require any special skills. The strands can be lifted completely, or the airy curls can be left loose, decorated with a thin ribbon (preferably in the form of a pigtail).
• Retro. The hair bands can transform a woman from an ordinary housewife into an extravagant vamp woman at a noisy party. By choosing the appropriate colour and decor, you can easily create a striking look that matches the situation. The popular options are with a pile, curls, and the famous Babette styling.
• Boho and ethnic style. Both narrow and wide fabric decorations look advantageous. Curls can be lightly gathered or left loose. The main thing is that the locks should preserve their natural appearance as much as possible, so you will have to refuse styling products.
