I'm kind of obsessed with headbands right now. But every time I wear one, I worry that I look silly--and will have a headache later on.
I found this article about what to look for when buying a headband.
* Consider your face shape. If you have a small face and fine features, a big floral number is going to overwhelm you. Go for a simple, thin headband. If you have a full face and prominent features, choose a thicker band. It's all about proportion.
* Hairbands are like jeans: Stretch helps. Not only does elastic keep a smooth, sleek shape, it's also more comfortable.
* Stay far, far away from molded plastic. Even though they may look sleek and mod, you'll have a headache after a few hours.
* Treat it like jewelry. Once you start adding earrings, a necklace, a bracelet, and so on, it's a hot mess. Keep your other accessories to a minimum.
