With the emergence of vintage vibes and re-styled looks from the ’90s comes the hottest trend for summer hair yet: accessories. While Hollywood’s biggest celebs are rocking chopped locks and natural waves, celebrity hairstylist Jen Atkin is among those creating accessories to adorn them — and celebs like Kourtney Kardashian are serving up inspiring examples of how to update your childhood hair goals with a twist, using everything from barrettes and bows to scarves and bandanas.

The Barrette

Atkin has teamed up with jewelry label Chloe + Isabel to create the barrettes of your dreams, as high-end style meets affordability with the new line of metal clips and cuffs ($16 to $45).

Bows

Think more satin ribbon. And although you might currently be rocking this piece as a choker, switching it up is an easy DIY way to make any hairstyle look chic — and seriously effortless.

Tiara Headbands

Headbands are taking a cue from the princess dreams of your youth. They, much like the luxe look of Atkin’s barrettes, are being vamped up with geometric shapes, jewels, and flowers that range from ethereal to rockstar.

Bandanas

While you may still have one lying around from your days of playing capture the flag, this re-discovered accessory is one of the cheapest you’ll find (averaging $10). Kourtney Kardashian was recently seen wearing one around her neck, but like the gift that keeps on giving, this grunge-inspired piece can be used as an accessory for bags, outfits, and of course, hair.
