New Trendy Style from the 60s

How to Wear Scarve Headbands........

Lately there has been a resurgence of headbands seen worn on celebrities, teenagers, and young women everywhere. Where did this trend come from? In the 1960's, headbands in a myriad of styles were popular on "mods" and hippies. The mod style of the headband was a wide accessory that was worn across the top of the head. They were usually a solid color and went with their go-go boots and mini skirts or dresses. Hippies wore theirs in more of a ninja style around the crown of their head. They either tied a scarf or bandanna around long locks or had a more natural one that was full of flowers.

There are also some unconventional ways to wear headbands today. One idea is to braid a piece of one's hair and wrap it around the head to give the appearance of a head band made out of hair. This is a hippie or bohemian relaxed look. Also, stylish sunglasses can be used to keep the hair pulled back by putting them on the head and pushing the bangs back. This is a great beach or summer look.
With so many ways to wear head bands today, everyone can use this chic, cute accessory to complement any wardrobe, style, or personality!
