Is there anything more amusing than adding a touch of playfulness to a once blasé hairdo? Arguably, yes, but the list is a short one. Fortunately for maximalists and those reminiscing over their middle school years, the hair accessory is here to stay and seemingly stronger than ever. This means rhinestones, pearls, and colorful beads continue to make an appearance on far more than ears, necks, and fingers this season. Childlike hair decorations are not just for kids. You name it, people (actually) want to wear it, in all of its cheeky, sometimes outrageous glory. Micro clips? Grosgrain bows? Headbands? Scrunchies? Our 13-year-old selves would be jealous. And, don’t think you have to stop at just one. There’s zero shame in flocking multiple barrettes together — seriously, the more the merrier. Here’s what our team is currently tying, clipping, and snapping onto our heads.
