Hair accessories add flair and decoration to your hairstyle.It can be difficult to incorporate these accents into your style.Try adding them to simple up-dos, like ponytails and messy buns, or using them for function by using pins and hair claws to pull your hair back and keep it out of your face.
Step 1: Pull back the front pieces of your hair with a few pins.
Pull the strands of hair that surround your face on one side back to the center of your head.They need to be secured with 1 or 2 bobby pins on the other side.If you are growing out your bangs and they are at an awkward length, this is a great look.
Step 2: You can add a large barrette to your hair.
Leave your hair down and sweep the majority of the front of it over to the side.Attach the barrettes near your forehead to hold the hair in place.Add more barrettes to the other side of your part for a balanced look or leave them asymmetrical.If you're worried that barrettes will make you look too young, try metallic ones.
Step 3: Attach your hair with a barrette for an easy up-do.
Take your hair out of your ears and put it on your head.All of the hair needs to be secured with a large barrette.A barrette with a geometric design is a great way to add a sophisticated element to your hair.
Step 4: For a cute accent, place a row of bobby pins in your hair.
Leave your hair out on your shoulders.To create a cute line of pins, pin 2 to 3 bobby pins to the side of your hair.Add pearls to gold or silver bobby pins to make them stand out.If you want to keep your bangs tucked behind your ear, you can use bobby pins.
Step 5: Adding barrettes to space buns will make them stand out.
You have to separate your hair into 2 separate pieces.Attach each section of hair to your head with a loose bun.Attach a large barrette at the front of each space bun for a cute accent that catches people's eyes.Use metallic barrettes to mimic jewelry or bright colored ones for added flair.
Step 6: Keep your hair out of your face with a headband.
Your hair should be loose around your shoulders.Attach a headband to your neck.Take the headband out of your ears and put it over your head and around your neck.If you want to keep your headband off of your neck, you can pull your hair up into a ponytail.These are great for dancing or playing sports.
Step 7: It's easy to add a headband to your hair.
There is a small cinch in the middle of the headband.Pull the headband on top of your head if you have loose hair around your shoulders.The headband should be on top of your head.Pull hair from the crown of your head.Before putting on your headband, you can braid your hair.
Step 8: A headband can be used to create an up-do look.
Take your headband off and place it on top of the crown of your head and around your skull.Take a small section of your hair and put it around the headband.Take the loose end of your hair and put it under the headband.If you want to complete your up-do look, Tuck all of your loose hair under your headband.It's a great way to make a simple hairstyle look fancy.
Step 9: There is a headband that covers your ears.
Pull half of your hair from your ears.Take your headband off and put it under the hair you pulled up.Pull your hair forward so that it sits on top of the headband.
Step 10: A bandana can be folded into a headband.
If you want to create a triangle with your bandana, lay it flat on the ground and fold it in half.If they want to touch the straight edge, fold the bandana back onto itself.When they reach the straight edge, fold the rest of the bandana in 1 in sections.Wrap your bandana around your head, then tie the ends together in a bow.Bandanas are great for hot days when you might be sweating.
Step 11: If you want to elevate your up-do, wear a tiara-like headband.
Pick a headband that has a lot of jewels on it.A slick bun is placed on the nape of your neck.Attach the headband to your head by placing it behind your ears.This is a great look for formal events.
Step 12: Make a headband out of a scarf.
The scarf should be folded over until it is about 2 inches wide.Put the scarf on top of your head by placing it behind your ears.Tie the ends of your hair together with a bow.If you want a nice accent, leave the ends of your scarf behind you.For a more subtle look, choose a neutral scarf, or pick a scarf with a pattern for a pop of color underneath your hair.
Step 13: If you want a cute look, pull your hair into a high ponytail.
On the crown of your head, place a high ponytail.Wrap a scrunchie around your ponytail instead of using a hair tie.If you want your hair to stay put, pull it tight.If you put your ponytail slightly off center, you can copy an 80s style.
Step 14: If you want to look more polished, Wrap a suck around a messy bun.
You can secure your hair in a messy bun with a hair tie.Wrap a scrunchie around the base of your bun 1 to 2 times for some added flair.If you don't have a lot of time, this is a great choice.A velvet suckie can be used for a sophisticated look.
Step 15: You can get a pop of color by securing the end of your braid.
You should braid your hair at the nape of your neck.Attach it with a small hair tie and slide it over the top.To make sure your braid stays in place, Wrap the scrunchie around it 2 to 3 times.Make sure your hair is wrapped tightly so that it doesn't fall off during the day.
Step 16: A half-up look with a large snoozie is fun.
Take your hair out of your ears and put it in a ponytail on your head.You can add a pop of color by securing your hair.For an even cuter look, use a patterned scrunchie with a bow on it.Look seamless from head to toe if you match your scrunchie with your outfit.

Pull your hair back with your fingers and place a loose ponytail at the back of your head.Pull it towards the top of your skull by twisting it around.Attach a claw clip to your hair to keep it out of your neck.This style is great for an up-do look on the go.For an easy neutral look, use a black claw clip, or go for a bright metallic clip.
