A hair band, also known as a headband, is a flexible and stretchy accessory worn around the head to keep hair away from the face or to add a stylish touch to an outfit. Hair bands can be made from various materials, such as fabric, plastic, or metal, and come in a wide range of styles and designs.
They can be thin or wide, plain or patterned, and may feature embellishments such as bows, flowers, beads, or gems. Hair bands are popular accessories for both casual and formal occasions, and they are often used in sports and fitness activities to keep hair in place.
Hair bands are available in different sizes to accommodate various head circumferences, and some are adjustable to provide a comfortable fit. They are easy to wear and can be a versatile and practical addition to any hairstyle.
To make a hair band, you will need the following materials:
Fabric of your choice
Elastic band
Sewing machine or needle and thread
Scissors
Measuring tape
Here are the steps to make a hair band:
Measure the circumference of your head where you want the hair band to sit. Add an extra inch for seam allowance.
Cut a piece of fabric that is the length of your head circumference measurement and about 4-5 inches wide.
Fold the fabric in half lengthwise, with the right sides facing each other.
Sew along the long edge of the fabric, leaving the ends open. If using a sewing machine, use a straight stitch. If hand-sewing, use a running stitch.
Turn the fabric tube right side out.
Cut a piece of elastic that is about 1-2 inches shorter than your head circumference measurement.
Attach a safety pin to one end of the elastic and thread it through the fabric tube, gathering the fabric as you go.
Once the elastic is threaded through, overlap the ends and sew them together securely.
Tuck the raw edges of the fabric inside the tube and sew the ends closed.
Your hair band is now ready to wear!
You can customize your hair band by using different fabric patterns and colors, adding embellishments such as bows or flowers, or adjusting the width of the band to suit your preferences.
