Bobby Pins
Bobby Pins are essential! I'm sure every girl out there knows what Bobby Pins are used for, right? :P Bobby Pins may appear to be small but they are very useful indeed in securing a hairstyle so strands of hair won't fall off and they keep your hair in place, maintaining a neat and tidy hairstyle.

Bobby Pins are great for casual hairstyle too. At the end of the day, when your hair has just gone flat and you don't have a pony tail holder, you can use Bobby Pins to put your hair up in a messy bun. The most common use of bobby pins is to secure the fringe up by pinning them back or braiding them back and using a Bobby Pin to secure the braid.


Ponytail holders
A common ponytail holder looks something like the pictures above though there are many other vareity. It may not necessarily add any 'spark' to the hair because it's mainly used to secure the ponytail. How about purchasing fancy ponytail holders that goes with ribbons or even flowers on it!(I love flowers, a lot! It gives off a softer look) It creates a whole new image - from a dull ponytail to an appealing ponytail look. 

Headbands
Headbands worn in the hair or around the forehead, usually to hold hair away from the face or eyes. Headbands are best worn to pull of a simple bohemian/hippie hairstyle! Braided headbands(picture above) is the most common and simple hair accessory worn by many. Some headbands come in with different designs and patterns too. This is usually how headbands are worn to pull of a bohemian/hippie look.
