Hair snoods are one kind of decorative nets
usually used as fashion items. Stylish women wear snoods on top of hair at the
back of head that carry a unique mode to their hairstyle. Snoods typically hold
different designs, colors, patterns, shapes and sizes that are in fact bring
some glamour on the whole attire of women who would always like to go with
up-to-the-minute. Nowadays snood is not only a hairnet or merely netting to
hold hair or even to keep hair in place but it stands for something more to
present you and your hair style.
Started a long time ago
Although the trend of wearing snood started
a long day ago at the medieval age, it became popular especially in the course
of renaissance (1800s). But the new versions of snoods have also appeared on
different time and era.
It is heard that the women lived in
Elizabethan England wore snoods adorned with beads, pears and other jewels
matching with their dress-up.
In the decade of 40 (20th century), working
women by and large wore snoods as for saving their hair from the possibilities
of getting captured with machines. After 50s, women started to wear snoods in
outdoor trips, swimming and cleaning activities, riding a car with removable
roofs and so forth. Afterwards its uses have gone beyond just like as a
headscarf. Today, snood even becomes a ready-to-wear and of course a time
saving style to the modern women.
Where it worn
Snood is like a small cape that sometimes
takes brim or not. Snood keeps a knot at the back and slightly elastic.
However, modern snoods are being changed having a beautiful outlook seen in
fashion shows, film, stage shows, celebrity programs, gorgeous fairs, weddings,
sport yards and somewhere else.
This hair accessory gives an attractive
look for the women who maintain especially bun style (hair coiled at back of
head) or long hair styles. At the same time, snoods are also nice fit to short
hair.
Make your dreams successful
To make a chic hair style, there is no
doubt, wearing a fashionable snood could make your dream successful. But it is
also mentionable that wearing a snood effectively plays a key role. However, you
could maintain the following sequence:
-
Make your hair tangles or snarls free first
-
Tie your hair in a bun or ponytail style or
simply leave the hair loose
-
Just wear a choosy snood and bend it
flexibly
-
If you wear snoods over long or heavy hair,
you could use extra bobby pins, decorative clips and even barrettes, if necessary,
for placing the snood fixed
-
Hairspray could be applied just for keeping
the hair in right place underneath the snoods and
-
Finally do not forget to stand in front of
mirror and to see your trendy look before going out.
