Hair accessories — scarves, barretts and other hair thingies

Hair Accessories . . . A quick, no fuss hairstyle change
The last time you wanted a hairstyle change did you consider all the possibilities you have of changing it with …hair accessories?
I used to be more adventuresome in the art of using hair accessories to change the look of my hairstyle. I don’t nearly use as many hair accessoI miss the fun I had in changing my hairstyle in a instantries now, than I did back when…why is that? My hair was longer for one, (no excuse) and I was in the mind-set of offering clients suggestions on how-to change their hairstyle. In looking back on it, I miss the fun I had in changing my hairstyle in a instant. Of course, we stylists relied on each other for the honesty factor, to alert us if we went over-the-top with our creative ambition. (A good idea to have a trusted friend when you start wondering if you’ve gone too far.) It’s hard to be objective about yourself.
Do you realize all the different hair accessories we actually have? I bet it would surprise you…barrets, clips, hat’s, (my fave these days) scarves, hair add-on’s, combs, hair sticks, pins, scrunchies, jaw clips, wraps, headbands and I’m sure I’m forgetting some.
Anyway, I’m challenging you to find at least three new hair accessories, this year, you can use to change your look on a whim . . . when you just want to kick things up a notch or just need a change to make things more interesting! (If you can’t come up with just what that would be……ask your stylist to throw in some creative possibilities!)
