Remember the school rule to have braided plaits and hair bands? That was the first time you probably used hair accessories – to provide a neat look and keep unruly hair in place. Nowadays, hair accessories have become a fashion statement in themselves, especially jewelled hair accessories. There is less concern about neatness and more concern about style!
Types of Hair Accessories:
* Hair clips: These are the most commonly used hair accessories. From cute doll-shaped patterns and hearts to sophisticated floral patterns, there are hair accessories for all age groups.
* Hair pins: These need to be used carefully as even those with soft tips can tend to be a bit poky. Like hair clips, they come in a variety of colours and sizes.
* Hair bands: These hair accessories control the hair from becoming a fringe over your face and blocking your vision. At school they were limited to a single colour. Otherwise you can choose between a really wide range of colours and types. There are plain plastic ones to extra flexible and stetcheable designer types.
* Beaded bands: On a trip to Chennai, I visited the SaravanaStores and came across some really pretty hair accessories – small beaded bands. The tiny multicoloured beads on the bands were arranged in such a way that they formed patterns – zigzag, floral, etc. These can be worn to hold the pony tail hairstyle or at the end of a plaited hair. It also looks great as a wrist band!
* Hair combs: These hair accessories are a big hit amongst teenagers due to their attractive designs. You can choose between butterflies and birds to superheroes and floral designs.
* Hair sticks: These hair accessories are becoming increasingly popular in Asian countries where ladies tie up their hair in a bun. The stick pin that is used to hold the bun in place add style to the hair.
* Threads: Slim, multicoloured threads are sometimes used instead of the old-fashioned ribbons for plaited hair.
Remember to:
* Remove your hair accessory before going for a swim and before going to bed.
* Remove any hair strands caught in the hair accessory before putting it away.
* Keep your hair accessories separate from your jewellery to avoid entanglement and spoiling the jewellery.
Hair accessories are able to transform you hairstyle and your overall appearance in a wonderful way. So choose them with care!
