19 Glitter Hair Accessories To Make You Feel Glam

Hair accessories are one of the best ways to highlight a new 'do or bring life to an old or tired ensemble. By buying a new hair accessory, you can make your style feel totally fresh again, especially glitter hair accessories, which are perfect when you just can't afford a blow-out but want to look a bit glamorous. Even if you can afford that blow-out at your hair dresser's every day, why not add a bit of sparkle and fun to your hair wardrobe? It's a sneaky tactic for bringing your love of glitter into your everyday style.

Personally, I find wearing the tiniest bit of glitter can boost my mood as well as my outfit. It's a quick bit of fun, which — when used in the right way and for the right club night — can come across as completely glamorous. Even if you just opt for a bit of glitter hairspray running through your mane, the way that glitter will catch the light and highlight the flip of your locks is never not stunning.

Perhaps I am bias due to my adoration of all things sparkle, but I've found that everyone secretly adores glitter (even if they wouldn't go all-out and wear a sparkly jumpsuit on a Tuesday). Start your glitter obsession with subtlety and invest in one of these fabulous glitter hair accessories.
