How to Wear a Headband (and Still Look Like an Adult)
Just ask Chrissy Teigen, Kate Middleton, or the models at Fashion Week: Headbands are definitely experiencing a resurgence in popularity. While you might be concerned that the classic accessory feels a bit juvenile, allow us to introduce you all the ways you can wear a headband that won't make you feel like it's your first day of kindergarten.
We turned to Beachwaver Co. Pro Stylist Gregory Alan to show us how to make headbands look mature and chic. Trust us, these headband styles are the perfect accessory to any outfit — without an ounce of schoolgirl charm (sorry, Blair Waldorf).

Some people might be putting scarves around their ankles, but we think they look best atop your head. Whether your scarf is a family heirloom or something you found on Amazon, you can transform it into a special hairpiece. It's an easy way to keep your hair off your face and change up your look, especially if your scarf is a color that complements the rest of your outfit. Here’s how Alan says to do it:

Fold your scarf until it's about four inches wide.

Lift your hair and place the center of the scarf at the nape of your neck.

Bring both ends of the scarf up and tie in a double knot, situating the knot on the crown of the head. Fan out the fabric that pokes out of the knot for a makeshift bow.

Note: If you have thin or limp hair, spray dry shampoo section by section before starting, and massage it into your scalp for extra texture.

Pinterest is going wild for this style, and while it's pretty easy to do, it requires some patience and a few bobby pins. “If you have a fringe or soft layers, this style will really accentuate them,” says Alan. See his steps below:

Place the the pre-knotted part of the headband about an inch or two from the hairline and hold firm while you tug the band down toward the nape of your neck, over the hair. Secure with bobby pins.

“This headband has a tendency to pop up,” explains Alan, so get creative with the bobby pins. “One trick is to use the ridged edge of your bobby pin (or a comb) to push down the stray hairs and secure them under the headband.”

With a little practice, you can make a cute headband with your own hair. This style definitely requires some skills, but on longer hair, it's pretty easy to master (no French braiding required!). With Alan’s help, you've totally got this:

Part your hair in the center and pull out two sections in front of the ears. Then, do two easy braids, Pippi Longstocking-style, angling backward to create tension along the hairline.

Keep braids nice and smooth with styling cream, and “when you tie them with an elastic, make a loop at the end, rather than pulling the elastic all the way through,” Alan explains.

Take your first braid and lift it up and over the crown toward the other side, and secure the end of the braid just behind your opposite ear with a bobby pin. Repeat on the second braid, tucking the tail under the braid.

Use a Beachwaver or flat iron to style the rest of your hair and pull it forward.

The Best Sports Headbands to Keep Sweat Out of Your Eyes
When you’re stocking up on your workout gear, you probably first find the right sneakers, gym outfit, headphones, and then likely stop there. But there’s one important fitness accessory you probably missed: a sports headband.

The best sports headbands are worn by professional athletes and amateurs alike because they help keep sweat out of your eyes and help keep your face dry so you can finish exercising or playing a game. Here’s everything you should think about when purchasing one for your next activity, along with our top headband picks from brands like Nike and Adidas.

Most importantly, the best sports headbands should feel as comfortable as possible while working out or playing a sport. After all, the point of the headband is to manage sweat and keep hair out of your face. They should also fit comfortably — never too tight — and be easy to clean. When you find the right fit, then you can indulge in multiple headbands that will make working up a sweat more enjoyable and easy.

The Claw Clip Is The Hair Accessory
Last year, headbands and pearl hair clips were all the rage. The year before, scrunchies reigned supreme. Each year a new it hair accessory dominates the style scene, and for 2021, the claw clip is the obvious candidate for that title.

It makes perfect sense that after almost a year of lockdown restrictions, working from home, and adopting an overall more casual sense of style, that an accessory that lets one pull one’s hair up into a simple, no-fuss up-do would emerge as a fashion must-have.

Trendsetters like Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner have regularly rocked claw clips while out and about lately, and I simply cannot escape these accessories while scrolling on the Discover tab on Instagram.

To add to the list of reasons why you should try out claw clips, unlike hair ties, claw clips are gentle on hair and help prevent the typical breakage that comes with putting hair up. I don’t know about you, but I’m always looking for gentler alternatives for hair care products and hair accessories, so claw clips emerging as a popular style is a real win-win!

So come along, pull your hair up out of your face, and try out one of these trendy claw clips:

This cloud-shaped clip from MLE is just dreamy. The cellulose acetate accessory is sculptural and modern, with a marbled pattern that makes it look like a work of art.

This classic gold claw clip is great for anyone who wants to add a minimalist hair accessory that still exudes plenty of glamour.

The Machete Mini Claw is an elegant addition to any half-up half-down hairstyle. Pin back those curtain bangs you got during lockdown and show off this artful piece inspired by blue and white toile fabrics.

Inspired by the lavish extravagances of les fetes gallants, this handmade clip from Alexandre de Paris is a rococo dream for anyone looking to channel the style of Marie Antoinette.

This tortoise claw clip from France Luxe is the quintessential clip; exactly what my mind conjures up when I hear the phrase “claw clip”. The Couture Jaw comes in an assortment of neutral patterns and prints, but the classic tortoise is my favorite.

The Revival of the Hair Clips Trend: Types of Barrettes & Ideas Every Modern Girl Should Know
Believe it or not, hair clips are the very first styling inventions that have a long and pretty rich history. In early human culture, apart from hand-made tool kits, women would tie their hair with pins made of sticks and stones. Then, those pins walked through generations to become bobby pins, which were a crucial styling detail during the Victorian era.

The modern versions of pins as we know them today appeared in the 19 century. And this is where their versatility came in. Since that time, hair barrettes have been changing, turning into fashionable embellishments designed to individualize women’s hairstyles. Today, wearing clips is extremely popular. Now, let’s see how different modern hair barrettes can be!

Knowing all the types of hair clips will not only help you to diversify your styling routine but also make your every single hairdo unique. There are lots of different clips, and each one is designed for specific results. Below, we’ve gathered the most popular and iconic barrettes that will help you add a touch individuality to your hair look.

There’s no way you don’t know the classic claw clip. Besides, you may also remember it as butterfly hair clips that every girl, including you, used not only to pin the hair back but also to embellish the hairdo.

Only cavewomen don’t know what a snap clip is! Whether you need to sweep your bangs away or some pieces of hair stick out of your updo, these cuties have always been there for you. Moreover, they can give a fancy twist to the look, as they come in many colors, patterns, and sizes.

Remember these metal hair clips? Although they were pretty unreliable in terms of styling, they are still a perfect solution for clipping hair away for comfortable waving, curling, and braiding.
