Another exciting accessory to add to your collection is a super trendy head tie. This is particularly perfect for someone who doesn’t really like wearing jewelry in their hair, and would rather go for an accessory that’s a little more low-key. The head tie looks very stylish and is casual enough for an off-duty hairstyle.

Nothing floats are boat more than a lovely braid tucked under a beautiful lace headband. Isn’t this just a perfect accessory for a short bob haircut? A headband like this is bound to instantly add a touch of ‘glam’ to any outfit (from a maid-of-honour dress to a pair of ripped jeans). Plus, it’ll hold your hair in place – two birds, one stone.
Whether you wear this headband patriotically or because you’re into starry things, there’s nothing we’re not fans of here. A headband like this will beautifully accentuate your pixie haircut, making it look irresistibly cute and almost Betty Boop-like! Our favourite thing about it? How simple it is – who said that great accessories for hair had to be complicated?

Don’t worry, this piece of hair jewelry isn’t only meant for girls with rainbow hair (that would make us feel very sad). Clip it into one or both sides of your hair to create a festive look – or whenever you feel like adding a bit of sparkle to your day. After all, a little bit of ‘bling’ never hurt no-one, right?
@courtgannhair
Not sure how to decorate your awesome pixie undercut? This one’s for you, then. For a statement that’s both bold and elegant, you’ll want this beautiful self-securing accent piece from Pink Pewter. Perfect for special occasions, nights out – as well as when you simply feel like your life is missing an edgy hair piece.

For a slightly more feminine look that receives plenty of admiration, barrettes are the first solution that comes to mind. Top your braided updo with a beautiful jewelled barrette, and it’ll hold it in place as well as accentuate the hairstyle. Pair this flowery barrette with soft colours and silky materials – and you’re ready for a sophisticated garden party.
@jessicashylyn_hairstyles
What’s prettier than braids, you ask? Jewelled braids, of course. For an inspiring and unique look, add these beautiful beaded hair jewels to your braided updo. You’ll probably be tired of telling everyone where you got your jewel pack from by the end of the night – but that’s what rocking a great hairstyle is all about, right?
@station_salon_
What’s your stance on matching your hair to accessories? We can’t get enough of it. This smoky flower hair piece isn’t just for festivals (but when we do go to a festival, it’ll be the first thing we pack!). Similar headbands will work perfectly on curly hair as well as straight hair – and it will become your favourite accessory before you know it.
@cierra.fremont
Say ‘hello’ to the the hairstyle that’s a guaranteed head turner. If you’re ready to take your jewelled braid to the next level, try adding jewels to a side braid, while leaving the rest of your hair down. Not only will you keep most of your hair out of the way, but you’ll also score points on authenticity. Pin the jewels into each loop, fix it in place with a couple of hair pins – and let the compliments pour in.
@a_kool
Not into the whole sparkly jewel thing? Simple goes a long way, too. Bobby pins aren’t normally seen as something magical – but they can look pretty darn cool if you have a few styling tricks up your sleeve. Add a handful of bobby pins to your hair to create a pattern – and you’ll be surprised by how awesome it looks.
@tamiastyles
Remember when you were a little girl and all you wanted was to be a princess? Well, someone out there must have heard your wish because your dream is about to come true. All you need is a combination of this adorable jewelled bun-pin and a stylish topknot. Prince charming will follow.
@hairbyelm
Nothing breathes elegance more than a delicate jewelled hair clip added to a messy low bun. It’s a hairstyle that’s been around for ages, but it continues to win over our hearts. As a popular saying goes, less is definitely more.
@hairbysonja.m
If you’re a lover of all-things-golden, then you’ll adore this luxurious Egypt-inspired headband. Not only will it make your hair look slick and exceptionally glamorous – but it will fix it in place letting you enjoy a trouble-free hairstyle. Ideal for a pixie cut as well a short bob – and compliments, guaranteed.
@normi_edit
If golden headbands aren’t exactly your thing, then how about adding these super sophisticated silver bobby pins to your natural hair? Combine two of these beautifully embroidered bobby pins to give your short updo more of an accent – or one if your motto is ‘simplicity is key’. It’s an easy and quick hairstyle that looks super charming!
@styles_by_reneemarie
Here’s a simple hack for beautifying your pixie cut – wear a decorative headband. Looks tres chic, is ready in minutes, and could really save you when your hair’s being a bit unruly. Or when you just don’t have time to wash it before running out the door (don’t worry, we won’t tell anyone).

Aren’t bandana scarves a genius invention? The best thing about them is that there are so many creative ways to wear them. Here’s our favourite: fold a scarf longways (so that it’s thin) and wrap it around your head, pulling out your fringe for an entirely different look. Head wrap + messy low bun = what’s not to love!
@snobgirlsaustralia
There’s hardly anything more charming than this embellished flower headband, we think. We’re giving it bonus points for the cute ribbon, which makes the look even more delicate. Wear it on your pixie cut for a snow queen-inspired look – and you’re bound to hear many ‘oh, wows’ accompanied with looks of admiration throughout the evening.
@sarahb.h
Another way to bring your short bob to life is by wearing a subtle headband with stones and crystals. Whatever the colour of your hair, it’ll add glamour to your hairstyle, without making it look too ‘out there’. Perfect for days when you want to make your short hair look uber-cool (but without drawing too much attention).
@allthingsbohokch
When was the last time you threw some beads in your hair? If we had to guess, we’d say it’s been a while. If you’re someone who thinks beads are for 11-year-olds – we don’t blame you. But look at these beautiful golden cuff beads – don’t they look way too sophisticated for teens? Adding beads is super easy, and it perks up your hairstyle immediately. Add a few to your short bob for a quick way to jazz up your look – or clip them into a braid to create more of an intriguing hairstyle.
@shivamom
Last but not least, don’t be limited to headbands and hair clips. If you’re on the creative end of the spectrum, try this beautiful star-decorated hairstyle to wow fellow guests at a special occasion. Who says that star confetti can’t become a wonderful hair accessory? We think it works like magic!
@monarchhairco
