The '90s Boho Hair Accessory That Everyone's Wearing This Summer
The bandana transcends style tribes, it works if you're a grunge girl, hip-hop devotee or a quiet luxury type. 'I love the bandana because it looks just as at home on Carrie Bradshaw at the farmer's market as it does on Britney, Beyoncé and J Lo in the Noughties,' says Francesca Inverarity, hairstylist at The Hair Bros. 'They're great for pulling your hair off your face in the summer months, plus they also protect it from the sun.' The Noughties is not the only source of inspiration for ways to wear it now. Hairstylist Bobby Eliot, who often works with Abrams, also references French '60s icons, like Jane Birkin and Brigitte Bardot, who wore the trend full-coverage and granny-style, rather than the shorter boho-style bandana. 'There are so many ways to style them,' says Eliot. 'And they're a great way to give your hair a break from summer styling as well – I love the idea of throwing in a little sea salt spray, letting your hair air dry and adding a bandana on top. So chic.' How Carrie Bradshaw wears the bandana – with diamanté, no less. Cinematic / Alamy Stock Photo Beyoncé's noughties look was also punctuated with optimal amounts of bling. Steve W. Grayson It isn't just A-listers who are head over heels for them, either. ('They've become my personality,' my fellow journalist Phoebe McDowell tells me.) The lazy girl's answer to achieving good hair that looks on-trend without having to actually do anything, she believes their rise in popularity is down to the wider boho trend that is so prevalent right now. The hairstylist Charlotte Mensah has long been a fan, often wearing one to protect her scalp and hair while she's in the sun. 'They're amazing at protecting the hair, especially if you have a curly hair type,' she says, adding that she gets hers from vintage stores and markets. 'I like the silk kind because they prevent frizz and help the hair retain hydration, while the cotton ones tend to suck any moisturising formulas out of the hair.' An obvious purchase if you've got coloured hair, in addition to looking good, bandanas act as a handy barrier between your strands and the sun. 'They stop bleached hair over-processing while you enjoy the sunshine,' says Inverarity. 'A good holiday hack is to apply a hair conditioning treatment, like Davines Oi Liquid Luster Treatment, when hair is damp. Then brush it back with a comb and wrap a bandana over the top to lock in the treatment and let it sink in throughout the day. It's a stylish alternative to the usual summer baseball cap.' How to wear a hair bandana now There are two key ways to wear a bandana. Most of the girlies are doing it '90s or bohemian style: folding the fabric into a triangle, then letting the point sit below the crown of the head. The other is more of a 'granny chic' look, where the fabric is tied around the head and secured under the chin. Whichever you choose, this is an accessory that works for all hair lengths and types; however, Inverarity says it works particularly well on short bobs, mini crops and micro or broken bangs. 'I think it looks great with swept-back braids or with a messy ponytail,' adds Mensah, who also says that you can roll them up as a more straightforward hair band, should you wish. And – the million dollar question – how to successfully tie them? For McDowell, it's as simple as folding a square silk scarf into a triangle, placing it on top of her head, flipping her hair over, then tying a double knot in the back. The best hair bandanas to shop now Look for (vintage or new) silk or cotton square scarves, secure over your hair, and get out in the sunshine.

6 Simple Ways To Boho-ify Your Hair, According To The Pros
If you've succumbed to a paisley print dress, some slouchy boots, or a crochet bikini, then chances are you're already well aware that boho is this summer's biggest trend. It doesn't just extend to your wardrobe, either; beyond the floaty ensembles and beaded accessories, perhaps the easiest way to emulate the look is via your hair. Instagram content This content can also be viewed on the site it originates from. According to Francesca Inverarity, hairstylist at The Hair Bros, the new spirit of boho for your hair marries elements of the '60s and '70s, pairing a soft, undone sensibility with an early Noughties grunge feel. 'Think Joni Mitchell and Jane Birkin's wispy, grown-out bangs paired with Olsen twin waves.' If that sounds appealing to you, here are six incredibly simple ways to bring a bohemian edge to your hair this season. Texture is everything The secret to boho hair lies in its relaxed, undone texture – and there are several ways to get the look. Hairstylist Luke Hersheson mists a salt srpay on damp hair to add grit and a messy finish. 'Ideally, let it dry naturally,' he says. 'Then take random sections from the top layers and use a wide-barrelled curling iron to curl them. Twist the hair as you wrap it around the barrel, leaving about half an inch at the ends for a more effortless result.' Finish by running your fingers through the curls to loosen them up, then lightly re-mist with a texturizing spray.
