Beauty Trends For Spring...with A Side Of Flowers

Spring is a great time of year, especially for those living in Miami. The months haven't quite gotten too hot and the rainy, hurricane season hasn't quite set in, sometimes causing those infamous "Bad Hair Days".

What's great about this season's looks is no matter what the weather may be, there are plenty of hair accessories to keep hair under control, looking feminine, and out of the way!

What's topping the trend list? Headbands & Flowers

Headbands are everywhere! And for all ages! From the gym to the streets to formal events, girls and women are wearing headbands to complete any look, making it more stylish and more ornate. With details such as flowers, bows and jewels, headbands are turning any simple hairstyle into one that's more feminine or sophisticated. Aside from keeping bangs or longer pieces out of the way, headbands look great when hair is pulled back or hanging loosely. One of the most popular headband trends is the simple metallic band. Because these stretchy headbands aren't too elaborate, they're very versatile and complement any look.

Flower Girl

Next, and for my favorite trend, I'm loving flowers in the hair! Either very tropical and behind the ear - or - very stylish and drawing attention to any look, flowers are springing up everywhere. Opt for fresh, real flowers or simply accessorize with faux versions already equipped with clasps. Aside from garden-like pieces, these flower accessories also come in unique, distinctive versions-from metal, plastic and various fabrics-you can find them adorned with exotic feathers or added garnishes like leaves and foliage.

Bonus: Beach Waves

Again, from the beaches of Miami to the fashion runways around the globe, the most sought-after look is tousled tresses, or wavy, just-off-the-beach locks. This style is healthy for your hair and very sexy! To achieve this look, let hair dry naturally until just slightly damp then add a texturizing mousse or gel such as Phyto's Matte Texturizing Paste. To finish the look, use a round brush to make loose, vertical curls in the hair. Because you're using heat from the hairdryer and not directly from a curling iron, hair will be wavy and natural looking.

This spring, headbands and floral hair accessories are everywhere, and people are definitely embracing them. A range of styles are available, including accessories that are fit for any outfit or occasion such as gym, work, school, or going out. While flowers and headbands are stunning ways to adorn your hair, consider changing it up by wearing your hair pulled up or leaving it down. Also, what's trendy for these accessories is that they come in a variety of styles and materials like plastic, elastic, metal and ribbon and are adorned with lace, beads, jewels and bows.
