We’re all going to be wearing hair bows this summer

At least, according to Pinterest

BEAUTYcrew Beauty Editor / December 22 2021

If you thought you’d retired your hair bow in high school, then have we got some breaking news for you: bows are back, baby. And in a big way too.

According to the folks over at Pinterest, searches for hair bows have increased by 97 per cent in the last month alone. 

So dust off your best velvet number because as far as summer’s concerned the hair bow is one of this season’s hottest hair trends

We’re amping up the cool factor though, pairing the traditional hair accessory with messy buns – AKA one of the party season hair trends the Edwards and Co team warned us to prepare for last month.

Need some inspiration to whet your appetite before you start online shopping for a bow of your own? Lucky for you, a number of your favourite celebrities have been seen touting the girlish accessory on red carpets for a while now:
