Having short hair is both stylish and practical. But with less hair to style, exploring hairstyles can be pretty challenging. Whether you’re growing out a buzz cut or sporting a sleek and breezy bob, styling short hair with beautiful accessories can be really fun. With ponytails and high buns usually out of the question for short hair, you have to get a little more creative with styling. Have some fun with your accessories - think statement clips, bobbles, and gorgeous headbands to keep those short flyaway strands of hair away from your face. At Tegen Accessories we have put together a selection of hair accessories including headbands for short hair and a variety of hair accessories that are perfect for styling shorter hair lengths. Keep an eye out for styling tips and inspiration for how to use clips for short fine hair on our Hairstyles for Short Hair Blog. There’s also this How to use Banana Clips Tutorial Blog, that outlines the best Banana Clips for Shorter hair lengths.
Styling short hair can be a blessing and a curse. While sometimes all you need is a quick brush in the morning, at other times hair that is growing out can provide awkward lengths and strands that are difficult to deal with. This is where clips for short hair really start to come in handy. Clips in all their various forms - snap clips, barrettes, bobby pins, etc - are the perfect combination of functional and stylish, where low-maintenance meets elegance. Pull back a section of your bob, and fasten with one or two Mini Barrettes or a Banana Clip. Experiment with braiding sections of your hair, and holding them in with a couple of our gorgeous Snap Clips from our own Ooh La La range. Snap Clips are also the perfect clip for short fine hair, and their strong grasp doesn’t slip or snag in thinner hair. Crystal and jewelled clips, like these Mini Swarovski Oval Clips, look particularly whimsical and fun in shorter hairstyles. They are perfect for taking your look from day to night or injecting a little sparkle into the everyday! Try styling your short hair with a pop of colour from a Crystal Barrette, or a dab of sophistication from a pearl and crystal Hair Slide.
Alice bands have always been one of the easiest accessories to finish any look. A pretty headband pushed over clean (or even well-due-a-wash) hair, injects a boost of effortless style into your outfit. Slipping on a headband works just as well with short hair as it does with any other length. Our Ooh La La headbands are handmade in France from a flexible but strong material, which means that after a few wears they’ll respond to your natural body warmth to mould comfortably around your head. No more of those nasty headband headaches! Why not try stacking a Narrow Headband with a wider statement 20mm Headband? Or, for a pop of colour try one of Fabric Headbands. You can also play around with the placement of headbands in short hair - try leaving a few strands at the front or placing behind your fringe, or use it to push stray hairs back and away from your face.
If your short hair is at least jaw length then you probably have enough to pull back into a half-up half-down do, or a low bun. Our small and Mini Claw Clips are perfect for elegantly fastening your hair back in this way, and come in a variety of uniquely patterned colours so you can keep it interesting. If your hair is really short, very small hair claws can be a great accessory to go all out on in your hair. Try using several to clip up small sections, or to hold in cute mini space buns. Our Tiny Hair Claws are pretty versatile, but would be perfect for those growing out their hair - use them to tame unruly sections and hold short strands in place.
Depending on how short your hair is, playing around with colourful scrunchies and cute charm hair bands can be a really fun way to style your short locks. Following a similar principle to using hair claws in short hair, you’ll probably want to use hair bands and scrunchies for half-up half-down styles in short hair. A half-up half-down ponytail held with a scrunchie is the ultimate eighties look. Or why not use matching colours to hold two bunches in place? The choices are endless, and our Coloured Charm Hairbands and Heart Charm Silk Scrunchies are both perfect choices to hold hair in place. And the best bit is, they look just as great as a bracelet on your wrist, as they do in your hair!
