The best headbands for dreads

Headbands are a must-have accessory for women who have fear. There are many benefits to wearing a headband when you are sporting dreads - covering loose roots when you are newly formed dreads, holding your dreads back in place while still displaying them, or even just for a fun hair statement piece. Like any hairstyle, dreads require regular care, maintenance and styling. Headbands are a popular option for women with dreads because they keep your dreads out of your face. Dreads also allow women to experiment with textiles and textures, explore creative possibilities and look amazing at the same time.

Thick headbands

Thick headbands are basically the only option you have when it comes to holding your dreads back from your face. If your roots are still a little looser, you will love the fact that thick headbands cover them until they get thicker and fuller. Dreads also have such a unique structure that playing with textures and patterns complements your hairstyle well. By hiding your roots you will be able to easily maintain your thick waterfall of smooth, pale dreadlocks. Wearing a headband does not hinder the growth or development of your dreads. It's simply a great alternative to having your dreads hanging in your face for the first few weeks.

Hippie Style

Contrary to what one might think, dreads are actually a very versatile and creative hairstyle. You can wear and pull styles that many women cannot! With a variety of accessories that can be added to your hair, such as tree beads, clips, flowers or facial headband , adding a creative style to your dreadlocks is easy. Dreads look great, whether styled down or up in a pony. Hippie-style dreaded headbands look great when they have flowers, feathers or braids. This will add the textured look you are looking for with your dreads. Hippie style headbands add a boho, natural, floral-child feel to your hairstyle.

Bandana headbands

Bandana headbands are a great way to keep your natural dreads safe and in place all day long. Not to mention - they look great! Headbands keep your dreadlocks neat and tight as they were intended to be. Bandana headbands for your dreads highlight the length and volume of your hair and can add a bit of hardness to your style. To properly wear a bandanna headband, place it behind your bangs and attach them and let them down and sweep them to the side. Put your dreads up in a strong, sturdy ponytail and you're good to go.
