Upgrade your hair game this season with an embellished bow or a crystal covered headband

There’s something about a well-placed hair accessory that makes you feel instantly pulled-together. With the power to elevate a ponytail, amp up a messy bun or play up your natural hair texture, hair accessories are the finishing touch that can pull a whole look together with minimal effort. And the good news is, hair accessories have come a long way since the days of butterfly clips and scrunchies. Here are the pieces you need to update your holiday hair this festive season.

Jennifer Behr
