Easy Bandana Hairstyles to Try
A bandana is a large, printed handkerchief that can be worn around the neck, but it is most commonly used as a hair accessory that you tie around your head, like a headband. Bandana hairstyles had their heyday in the ’40s, as women wore them to protect their hair from getting caught in the machines and equipment they used.
They also became a staple ’90s hair accessory, with artists like 2Pac and Aaliyah also sporting them. And now, popular celebs, bloggers and Instagram-stylers are proving that bandanas are versatile and the hottest hair accessory to wear in 2020.
To show you how to style and wear them the right way, we’ve rounded up the best bandana hairstyle ideas to copy, see below.
