Hair accessories are more beautiful than ever and upgrade even the simplest hairstyles
It is a fact!
Trends go in cycles and in recent seasons we have seen many accessories and clothing styles returning from past decades. When it comes to hair, braces, ribbons, headbands, clammers, combs, tweezers and so much more have become very popular again.
Although these accessories were super popular in the 90s and 00s, until recently most women used them
to catch the hair only inside the house.
According to Carrie Bradshaw in “Sex and the City”, after all, a brace was only suitable for washing
of our face in the bathroom.
Not anymore, since now all these hair accessories are elegant, stylish, upgrade even the simplest look
and of course they are worn by all our favorite it girls.
From a very simple everyday look, up to a bridal hairstyle, a hair accessory or a wedding hairstyle
can play a leading role and elevate our hairstyle.
On TikTok there are literally millions of videos with ideas to add an accessory to the hair
and create a simple or more elaborate hairstyle.
Upgrade in an instant
A simple, low braid at the base of the neck or the classic parting at the waist becomes a different style if added
an eye-catching fringe, a vintage comb or a large tweezers.
The right size
We choose accessories not only based on the style we want, but also on the type of hair. The size of the clamp or barrette should be proportional to the volume and length of the hair we have.
Multipurpose
Accessories can either play a leading role or be more auxiliary,
such as to keep hair caught, away from the face or even to hide bangs.
Stable result
Styling products that create texture in the hair are the best allies of accessories, since they help them
to stay firmly in place, without slipping.
The same applies to hair that is not freshened since it manages to maintain the desired shape more easily.
Ideally we want to have washed the hair one to two days earlier.
Final steps
As with any look, it is important to “lock” the hairstyle with a hairspray with a hairspray
and make sure the ends look shiny, healthy and frizz-free by applying a special oil for shine and smoothing.
SOS
The only thing that requires care in the use of accessories is their placement.
We make sure not to pull or damage the hair, since in the long run this can lead to
to hair breakage or even hair loss in some areas.
Before applying an accessory to your hairstyle, make sure the hair has cooled down after using heat tools,
so as not to create any friction.
In any case, the variety is great and our choices are endless.
Get accessories of different types and styles, experiment and post your results on social media.
You can also share them with me on Facebook & Instagram.
I kiss you,
