How to Style Hair Clips and Scrunchies 

Hair Clip Style #1: Pinned Back on One Side

We have these adorable small hair clips in several different colors. This hairstyle will work for straight or curly hair, so there’s no holding you back! The key to this hairstyle is to leave a few bangs/front pieces of your hair out of the clip, so they can help give shape to your face. This also helps show off your hairstyle from all angles, not just from the back of your head. 

Hair Clip Style #2: Figure 8 Bun

This figure 8 bun is one of our favorites! This look is shown with long hair but can be accustomed to your hair length. This hairstyle is a trendy way to pull your hair back without it having to be pulled back too tight or leave an awkward bun on top of your head that a regular elastic can bring. Plus, it looks especially cute with our wavy claw clip. This clip comes in 3 different colors, so you can pick your favorite or get one of each! 

Hair Clip Style #3: Half-Up Half-Down

Doesn’t this hairstyle look absolutely gorgeous? This is another look that can work for straight or curly hair, but as you can see it looks especially beautiful when you have some curls bouncing around at the bottom. AND can we talk about this cut out rectangle claw clip?? It is so cute! The color, the look, everything about it is magical, and we couldn’t be more excited about it. We hope you love this one as much as we do!

Scrunchie Hair Style #1: Low Ballerina Bun

Isn’t this satin scrunchie to die for? You can never have too many scrunchies, and this one makes the perfect accessory on your wrist until you are ready to pull your hair back. As you can see, this model has short straight hair and this scrunchie still holds her hair in place. If you do have thinner hair, one trick you can do is pull your hair pack with a small elastic and then put the scrunchie over it to finish off the hairstyle. We love how this fluffy satin scrunchie really pops! It definitely puts a whole new look on low bun hairstyles, don’t you think??

Scrunchie Hair Style #2: Loose Braid

This denim scrunchie is perfect for any occasion. This hairstyle mostly works for girls with longer hair. The next time you braid your hair, finish it off with a cute scrunchie instead of a regular hairband. Again, if you’re worried about the scrunchie falling out over time, tie it with a small elastic first and then put the scrunchie over it. You can either do a regular loose braid for this hairstyle, or a soft french braid can work as well. 

Scrunchie Hair Style #3: Loose Ponytail

You don’t have to overthink it. This hairstyle is meant to remind you that a ponytail can be a cute option, especially when it’s held back with our tie-dye scrunchie. When you’re struggling to know how to wear your hair for the day, a scrunchie is always a good option! Plus, one thing we love about scrunchies is that it leaves no crease in your hair! Just another reason why everyone probably loves them so much.
