Beat hair boredom with the latest metal hair accessories trend
Chic and simple
Got short strands yet want to get in on the half-up hair trend? While it’s normally quite difficult to work your strands into any updo style, utilising a chic metal hair clip will give you the look in an instant! Credit: @bluntandco_
Shine bright
Special occasion coming up? Feel like your hair lacks that finishing touch? Sounds like you need a sparkling accessory to jazz up your mane.

Editor’s tip: If you’re using heat to create stunning waves, remember to protect your tresses by using the VO5 Heat Protect Spray. This gives a satin soft finish to your mane, with an ultra glamorous sheen, too.
Day to night bun
Are you one of those people who have a jam packed social life and need a hairstyle to take you from working hours to happy hours? Well, why not make this cuffed bun your go-to look?
Whether you choose a ballerina bun or messy top knot as your everyday updo, give it a major style boost with the help of a gold hair cuff and watch as your look is completely transformed. Credit: @anyalesun
Smooth operator
You probably know hair slides as the essential tool for taming unruly flyaways and short layers. However, this Instagrammer has put her own spin on the humble accessory and it’s blowing our minds.
Keeping her dark tresses super smooth and sleek, she has neatly placed golden hair slides behind her ear for a red carpet-ready look. Credit: @bluntandco_
Editor’s tip: If you want strands as sleek as these, we suggest adding a few drops of the TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Shine Oil to your end look, to help tame flyaways and fight frizz.
Tough braids
If like Emily Ratajkowski and Bella Hadid you love a boxer braids hairstyle, give them a twist by adding in some spiky hair accessories.
We love this style for a festival or music concert and if you are lucky enough to wing your eyeliner like this Instagrammer, definitely do it! Credit: @desiperkins
Golden ponytail
There are not many occasions that a ponytail won’t see you through in style. However, if your pony has become your go-to look and well, you fancy a change, simply add a golden hair cuff to the base. This will conceal your hairband and take your look from ordinary to extraordinary in a flash! Credit: @kristin_ess
Crowning glory
When the time comes for a really special occasion, you have to dig out the crown jewels, or in this case, a golden crown hair accessory. Trust us: with this regal hairstyle, you’ll be the belle of any ball. Credit: @dominikagrnova
