The jersey headband is making its resurgence, alongside other popular ‘90s hair trends like claw clips, banana clips and velvet scrunchies. Not only is it chic but also practical and comfortable to wear. The soft fabric of the headband keeps your hair out of the way without causing any tension and discomfort. It also looks incredibly flattering and polished.
There are a few ways to rock the trend and we’ve gathered the best ideas to share them with you.
A classic black headband placed right at the hairline is probably the most popular influencers’ choice in 2024. However, frankly, not everyone can pull off this look. Leave two strands at the front to give your face some framing if this feels better for you. Otherwise, push your headband further – behind your ears to show some hair at the front.
If you struggle with your thick, curly hair looking too bulky under the headband, try this simple trick. Use a wax stick to make the front of your hair smooth, take two sections from each side of your head and tie them together at the back. This will help to prevent the heavy strands from falling forward and keep your hair neat.
If you need to put your hair up but all you have is a headband, here’s a video tutorial hack on how to make a bun using this hair accessory. First, use it as if it was a hair tie, then twist your ponytail around one side of the headband and wrap it all together around the base. Leave the ends out or tuck them in, whatever you prefer.
“Is it me or why my headband always slips off my head?”
It’s a common issue, especially if you have straight, silky hair. This simple trick will help to make a nice swoop at the front that will not move anywhere. You must leave some hair at the front and then tie each of the sides to a small strand of hair at the back using a rubber band. Cover those tiny elastics with the rest of the hair.
You can wear your hair up with a headband too. This video tutorial teaches you how to make a cute and simple updo with a headband.
Leave the sides out when you put the headband on. Make a quick bun by not pulling all your ponytail through and then wrapping the ends around the base and tucking them under the elastic. Then twist the sides and wrap them around the bun.
Experiment with different colors and try all the variety of ways to sport a headband. As you see, it’s an exceptionally versatile hair accessory that suits everyone if you choose the right hairstyle.
