A Brief Survey of Headbands in Pop Culture

4

Headbands are one of those fashion accessories that, while they never seem to completely go out of style, have unexplained resurgences every few years. If the recent smattering on the red carpet at the Golden Globes is any indication, then we’re currently in the midst of one of those popularity surges. This is great news for Hillary Clinton, a longtime headband supporter, who was sporting a festive thin black headband at last night’s State of the Union address. She’s finally on-trend! Inspired by their recent takeover, we decided round up a collection of famous headband wearers throughout the years. Let us know who we missed in the comments!

alright! its time for an intervention! FLAVORWIRE is running out of ideas! its early in the year but, i’ve gotta nominate this post for “UNINSPIRED BRIEF SURVEY OF THE YEAR”. headbands? you’ve got to be kidding me!

Headbands are worn by many because they are functional (I’m sure that is why Hilary wears them) If you hair all grows forward, you either need big clunky bangs or a way to keep your hair out of your face. My hair grows that way, if I just let it go & shake it out – I can do a mean Cousin It!

What, no Heathers?
