DIY Headband Accessories

Accessorizing your hair can seem overwhelming with so many gadgets available. There are some trendy accessories that can make it look easy to put your hair into dew. There are some hair accessories that you should wear and some that you just shouldn't!

Many hair accessory stores are packed with things to put into your hair. Most of the products are designed to make your hair look great. These products can come in every shape and any color that makes the style really up to you. And while some hair accessories will work for short hair, they might not work the same for long. It is really up to personal opinions as to what will look good for you.

There are a few hair accessories that you might want to stay away from unless you want to get a humorous reaction from friends and onlookers. The first one to mention is called the head band accessory. This product is a band made out of silk that wraps around your forehead. The part that makes it not okay is not the band itself; it's what is on the band. There are two designs of this product, one is a massive bow made out of ribbons that kind of dangles in front of your eyes, while the other has a huge tangle of ribbons and feathers protruding from the front of the band. This look is not recommended unless you are doing some kind of Broadway show, and even then it's questionable!

The other accessory that is not very flattering for any hair type is the banana clip. These clips were brought out in the 80's and while they looked good in their day, they somehow never faded out like the padded shirts and wooden shoes. These clips do not make any hair style look nice.

For hair accessories that work, many people are turning to clips with a design or pattern on them. These clips can be made out of jewelry or bead and can be in a shape such as a butterfly. They usually have a pattern of colors on them and sit well in the hair. They look nice because they add a little color to the head where there usually might not be any.

Head bands when worn properly look amazing on any hair length. You can find them in any shape and color. Traditionally known for digging into the skin behind the ears and causing headaches, they now are shaped more ergonomically friendly and do not cause mind boggling headaches anymore! They look nice pulling the hair back and can create layers around the face as the hair falls from the band. These bands can make any hair style look nice, even if hair has not been blow dried straight, the curls that form from the band will look like you meant to wear it like that!

If you have trouble drying your hair when you get out of the shower, you can try a product called the "Original Turbi". This product wraps around your hair when you get out of the shower. It stays in place and actually dries your hair as you put on makeup and get ready. The beauty of this product is that it makes hair dryer ready, by soaking up just enough moisture and wetness to get the most out of your dryer experience.
