1. The Broadband

Now this is of course not your internet broad band we are referring to. We are discussing the broad hair band that has sat gracefully on almost all the B-town girlies. As much as it looks fashionable it helps in keeping those fringes away when it is time for more serious business.

While the broad bands hold the hair back tightly, a new fashion of very slim plastic hair bands have emerged in the marker since the past couple of years. These bands won’t be too strict with the hair, they will allow your mane to be a little naughty, yet keep your face undisturbed. What’s more? They make you look at least 5 years younger.
