Why is everyone getting back into headbands (and you're going to fall for it too)

We've all had that moment of panic in front of the mirror: no time, no inspiration, no desire to wash our hair. And there, you take out your headband. In two seconds, you go from “I just tied it quickly” to “effortlessly stylish”.

And it's not just to hide poorly styled bangs:

• It structures a hairstyle

• It brings a real fashion touch

• It can even replace a piece of jewelry

In short, the headband is the hair accessory that saves hazy mornings, spices up an overly demure look, or makes your hairstyle shine during an aperitif or a wedding.

The different styles of headbands and how to wear them

1. The cotton gauze headband

• Lightweight, ultra comfortable material

• Perfect for a natural or bohemian look

• Ideal on loose or slightly wavy hair

2. The braided or crossed headband

• Brings relief to a simple hairstyle

• Great with a high ponytail or low bun

• Available in plain or printed version

3. The velvet headband

• Winter’s good ally

• Ultra chic for an evening outfit

• Ideal if you want to add a retro touch to your look

4. The headband to tie

• The most versatile

• You can play with the height, do a bow in front or behind

• Pretty on curly, straight, tied or loose hair

5. The jeweled headband

• To take out for special occasions (weddings, parties, etc.)

• In pearls, rhinestones or decorated with lace

• It is enough on its own to dress up a simple hairstyle

How to wear your headband according to your hairstyle?

hair released

• Place it on the birth of hair

• Leave a few strands in front for a blurred effect

• Ideal with a textured material (curls, wavy)

hair attached

• On a high ponytail: sporty chic effect

• With a low fuzzy bun: ultra romantic

• For a retro effect: tighten it close to the forehead 1920s style

Bangs or no bangs?

• If you have bangs, leave them free, and place your headband just behind

• If you want to show off your forehead, slide the bangs under the headband for a more refined look

Which headband width to choose?

Headband + outfit: how to match them?

• Casual look (jeans + t-shirt): cotton headband, floral or graphic print

• Romantic outfit (flowing dress, lace): knotted headband or gauze headband

• Chic evening: velvet or gold headband

• wedding or event: jeweled, beaded or flowered headband

Tip: match your headband to a reminder in your outfit (bag, belt, jewelry). A little wink that makes all the difference.

And for the kids?

The headband is also the perfect accessory for little girls:

• It holds well without pulling on the hair

• It does not slip if it is well adjusted

• It adds an adorable touch to a formal dress or an everyday hairstyle

At Bohomane, we even have models adapted to the heads of minis (without holding them too tight).

How to make it last all day?

Are you afraid it will slip? Which he squeezes? Here are our tips:

• Choose a model with good support (well-sewn hair elastic, interior band)

• Texturize your hair (powder, light hairspray) before putting it on

• If necessary, slide two invisible pins into the ends

• And above all, avoid putting it on ultra-smooth and clean hair: it will hold up better the day after shampooing

Express hairstyle ideas with a headband

• Low messy bun + crossed headband: effortless chic

• straightened hair + jeweled headband: simple and glamorous

• Half fastening + headband tied on top: 70’s spirit

• Braid on the side + gauze headband: perfect for sunny days

And that, frankly, is the true definition of casual luxury.
