Head bands are worn at the highest point of the head and rest on the
head ending behind the ears. They provide hold and control to your
hair and keep them away from falling on your forehead. Some may also wear hairbands closer to the forehead for a cool retro chic look.
The appropriate size is one that can secure the hair firmly enough to
hold the style but without slipping, pinching, or otherwise causing
discomfort.
Headbands are highly adjustable, soft and elastic. They hold the hair
back from the hairline and allow your hair to fall freely at the back.
They can be worn on all hair styles, hair dos, hair length and hair
texture. They are worn by women belonging to all age groups. Some
fashionable young men may also give hair bands a try.
Head bands mostly feature tiny teeth like structures at the base of
the hair band to provide the grip and hold to your hair on the head.
They may also help those with curly locks have a smooth, even and neat finish at the hairline. However, those headbands made of fabrics like cotton satin etc may lack this system of teeth. The fabrics are mostly elastic.
Some headbands are made of materials like plastic or metal, with or
without gripping combs, Other headbands and wraps are made of soft materials that are maleable and that wrap completely around the head. Suedes, vinyls, leathers, plastics, woods, and fabrics are all made into hairbands.
Hair bands come in many shapes, sizes, and colors. Some wires may also be converted into hairbands. Hairbands may be rounded, wavy, or straight-edged.
Wire-based and fabric made hairbands are highly verastile and can be adjusted for different sizes, while plastic bands are less adjustable and may break instead.
Hair bands may be glued or hand-stitched. Hand-made hair bands may be simple lengths of ribbon that can be wrapped around the head and tied underneath. Fabrics of different colours and prints amy be braided together in some patterns for a distinct and customised look.
