Fashion Headbands Summary
Fashion Summary   Fashion Terms   Fashion Companies   Fashion Influence

A headband is a band of fabric (or other material) worn around the head as a decoration or to keep the hair or perspiration off the face.  Some are rather basic and others can be designed to be fashionable.

Fashion headbands come in a wide variety of colors, sizes, and designs.

A headband is a clothing accessory worn in the hair or around the forehead, usually to hold hair away from the face or eyes.  Headbands often consist of a loop of elastic material or a horseshoe-shaped piece of flexible plastic or metal.  They come in assorted shapes and sizes and are used for both fashion and practical or utilitarian purposes.

Fashion of the times:

In the early 20th century, wide headbands known as headache bands were very popular accessories in women's fashion. Their name came from the belief that the tight pressure they provided around the forehead could relieve or prevent headaches. The French called such a garment a bandeau (bandeaux, plural).

During the 1950s and 1960s, many glamorous young women wore plastic headbands with the beehive hairstyle, or silk veils when driving.

After the Summer of Love of 1967, hippies wore tie dye and paisley bandanas as headbands.
