Turbans and Head Wraps

You can see these new hair accessories everywhere from magazines and catwalks to the sidewalk and your social media. Best of all, they are multi season. If it is summer than grab a silk head wrap, and if its winter pick up some wool turbans. They look stylish if you are simply lounging around, running errands, or going out on the town.

You might think this look is just for those girls with long hair, but that is far from the truth. There are plenty of stylish ways short hair can wear turbans.

• Bow – This vintage style works great for short hair. Simply tie the turban around your head and make a cute bow on the side.
• Knot – Take a shorter scarf and wrap it around your head from under your hair to the top, or from back to front and tie the ends in a knot on the top of your head or the front of your forehead.
• Headscarf – This looks best on short hairstyles. Simply tie a short scarf or fabric around your head as if it were a headband.

Headbands are one of the most popular Hair Accessories

If you have short hair then a variety of headbands are a must. It’s an easy way to add glamour to your hairstyles for every occasion. Although you want to make a statement with your headband, huge bows or thick headbands can be too intense for short hair.

Depending on the length of your hair should determine the size of the headband you choose. If you have shorter hair such as a pixie try to keep your head bands less than 2 inches wide because wide bands can be overpowering for your short hair. If you have a bob or shag style then you can go thicker but keep still keep it simple.

Headbands also create great volume and are perfect for styling your hair if you are trying to grow it out or change the style.

Studs use to be for the ‘gothic’ style exclusively, but now they are for everyone’s look and are the perfect headband accessory.

Barrettes can be used for short hair

This is the ultimate and traditional hair accessory for short hair. They can also be the trickiest to shop for. If they are too big they look tacky and can fall out, but if they look ‘too cute’ they can come off as childish. The best way to avoid that is to bright colors and princess-themed barrettes.

Try to keep it simple, with gorgeous colors such as turquois, or yellows. Of course color depends on your hair color and outfit. Don’t be afraid of vintage bows or flowers, just make sure they look age appropriate. If you are going to a formal occasion then try styling your short hair with gems or jeweled barrettes.

They are a versatile hair accessory and can add effortless style to short hair. You can wear flowers behind your ear, on a headband, attached to barrettes, or a floral pattern turban.
