For morning hair mayhem — those cracks of dawn when your hair is staging a rebellion, and you don’t even have the hair-withal to attempt the faux bob — there’s always Sonia Kashuk’s new $9.99 Crown Jewels Hair Set.
Yes, once again, Sonia ventures into The Land of Hair Accessories to bring us something great.
Truth be told, though, I’m a little confused by this item’s name. I’m not sure why it’s called a set, since it’s just a single black- and gold-beaded elastic headband…and it lacks any visible jewels.
But I digress…
More importantly, I like it! Like Sonia’s Haute Hair Sets last fall, this headband looks tough girl approved. It has an edginess that I like, despite the elegant beading, which keeps it from looking too cutesy.
As for the elastic? Holla! Comfy as can be (and it doesn’t squeeze my brain).
I can see it now with a black dress or top with a simple neckline, and a delicate gold chain necklace and bracelet…
PRICE: $9.99
AVAILABILITY: Available now at Target
MAKEUP AND BEAUTY BLOG RATING: A (neat, but why is it called a set?)
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

I went last night but not for fun things – got stuff to make my much requested Corn Casserole for a Thanksgiving pot luck. I saw this. Put it in my cart, then put it back. Ill grab it the next time im there!

Karen says
Thanks! Mah hair is outta control in these pics, LOL! I hope you’re having a nice Thursday so far, Agata. Got any fun plans for the weekend yet?
Agata says
I like your hair 🙂 Thursday has been going pretty smoothly, done with work, cleaned the house, made dinner, just waiting for hubby to get home.
On Sunday I got a day off and me, hubby and my friends are going to a little Bavarian town called Frankenmuth and going to Bronner’s Christmas Wonderland which is the biggest Christmas store in the world 🙂 Also the shopping outlets are really close so us the girls hope we can talk our men to stop by if we have any time left 🙂 Should be fun!
What are your plans?
Larie says
This is super cute! Gotta keep an eye out the next time I hit Target.

Yes! I kinda love how it instantly dresses up an outfit. 🙂

Me too. Have you tried her Bent Brush? Amazing!
Preetha says
Hey Karen……what nail colors are you wearing in the faux bob hair tutorial?

Hi Preetha,
I’m wearing a few Zoya shades: Aurora (purple), Blaze (magenta) and Logan (green).

Very nice!

I really like her product line. She makes great makeup brushes and eye makeup remover.
Tara says
Not to get too personal, but how big is your head? Most elastic headbands give me a headache from being too tight on my big head. I have almost given up on elastic bands, but that one is so cute.
Kim says
Don’t feel bad, Tara. I have a tiny, pea head and have the same problem. Any kind of headband gives me a massive headache. 🙁

That is a cute headband! I love elastic headbands, especially if they have the sticky grippy stuff in them to keep them from sliding off my head. Goody makes some good ones and my all time faves are by Under Armour. I also bought some wide stretchy cotton headbands for yoga and just doing things around the house. I’m overdue for a salon visit myself…on one hand I like how fast my hair grows and that it’s much easier to braid when it’s this long (just past bra band length), on the other hand, it’s also easier to manage when my stylist thins and layers it (but it won’t go back into a braid without mousse and bobby pins.).

Ooooooh! I love it.
