Accessories are potent. Whether you’re having a park day, heading to the beach, or going on a rooftop dinner date, if you’re going for a super-chic look (which we always are), great accessories are a must. They have the power to take what is otherwise a pretty standard outfit and make it more exciting and unique to you. They can also transform a bad hair day into a boujee one in minutes.
There’s really no easier way to make your look feel current and on-trend for the season than with hair accessories. Because we like you too much, we’re listing down the six hair accessories fashion girls have deemed are in this season. Whether you want to channel your inner Maddy with standout headbands or embrace the Y2K era – there’s something for everyone to add to their hair arsenal.
These Hair Accessories Are On The Verge Of IG Fame
Jumbo Scrunchies FTW!
It is no surprise that Sarah Jessica Parker was always working towards pushing the fashion horizon around the ‘90s and was often seen accentuating her hair with jumbo scrunchies. The effortlessly cool organza scrunchies is taking the center stage amongst all the hairstyling enthusiasts out there. We love the ultra-sheer ones that are all but transparent, but shiner varieties that are a tad more opaque are topping our wishlist.
An It-Girl Approved Look
Gone are the days of keeping wide headbands on deck just for facials and athletic activities. Headbands are officially very cool in 2022. Whether you’re working with twists, waves, or curly hair- literally anyone can pull off this headband hairstyle. We recommend finishing off this look with a hair-setting spray.
For A Peak ’90s Look
We have celebs like Kendall Jenner to thank for bringing the ’90s hair claw clips back into our lives. But the quintessentially ‘90s trend has been distilled into a more refined look to fit 2022. Nowadays, you can expect to see more dainty versions of claw clips with delicate details and in pretty golden finishes.
Sleek, Chic, & On Fleek
Clips will never NOT be in style. In fact, they just keep getting bigger, don’t they? This year, they’re supersized and adorned with pretty embellishments like pearls and rhinestones. Also, it looks like we’re wearing all of the clips, all at once this year.
Hat-Girl Summer
We don’t know who needs to hear this, but a hat never goes out of style, especially when it comes to the ever-popular, coolest, most ‘90s-inspired accessories on the scene – bucket hats. This one needs little to no explanation because, well, just look at what an impact this kind of accessory can have on an outfit.
For Y2K Lovin’ Queens
You can bet your last dollar that if two ’90s and Y2K lovin’ queens favour a hair accessory, it’s about to become a trend. Case in point: Bella Hadid and Euphoria’s Maddy Perez, and their love for the zig-zag headband. Yes, the plastic headband you donned in your childhood is making a comeback, and we’re not mad about it.
Wrapped In A Scarf
Looking for an easy-peasy way to style your tresses? This proves that you don’t need anything more than a scarf to make even a basic hairstyle look like a million bucks. Though the old-school girls used soft scarves to protect their hair, the fashion set is co-opting the look for purely sartorial purposes. The ‘70s were all about the fun, carefree, and hippie-esque vibe. And TBH, so are we today. Bookmark this one for when you want to make a statement with minimal effort.
Effortlessly stylish!
