Five ways to style your Liberty print large bow clip

In the last few years we've seen the comeback of the 90s fashion accessory, the scrunchie. Now, the iconic 80s staple - the large bow hair clip - has made its return, adding a touch of charm and elegance to modern hairstyles. From vintage-inspired looks to modern twists, hair bow clips are proving to be an exciting addition to contemporary fashion.

Large bow clips are a versatile and stylish accessory that can elevate any hairstyle. Whether you're aiming for a casual, elegant, or playful look, a large bow clip can add a touch of charm and sophistication. Here are five ways to style your large bow clips:

1. Half-up, half-down
   
   
   

   For a pretty, informal look, ideal for either shorter bobs, or longer lengths, opt for a half-up half-down hairstyle, finished off with your bow clip. Gather the side sections of your hair and secure them at the back of your head with your large bow clip. This hairstyle is ideal for showcasing the bow while keeping your hair away from your face. If you have thick hair, tie the hair in a thin hairband first and secure the clip in place just above the band.
   
   

2. A messy or slicked backed bun

   Gather and secure your hair into a messy or slicked back bun at the nape of your neck. Then add the bow clip either underneath or just above the bun and let the bow tails drape down. The bow adds a playful element to this effortlessly chic hairstyle.

3. Classic low or high ponytail
   
   
   

   Perfect for casual outings and formal events, add a bow to a low ponytail. Secure your hair with a hairband and place the large bow clip at the base, for an easy and ultra feminine look. For a high ponytail, a bow secured over a hairband can offer a jaunty and more playful look, to give impact to an otherwise everyday style.
   

4. French plait

   Style your hair into a french plait, weaving sections of your hair from the top of your head down to the nape of your neck. Once the plait is secure, gently slide the bow clip either at the end of the braid where the hair is secured, or place it at the top of the braid. This adds a charming and elegant touch to the classic French plait.

5. Loose waves or curls

   For that boho chic look, incorporate your bow clip into loose waves. Start by creating loose waves using a curling iron or sea salt spray for a natural, beachy look. Once your waves are set, part your hair as desired, take a section of hair from one or both sides and secure it at the back of your head with a bow clip, allowing the rest of your waves to cascade freely - adding a touch of whimsy and elegance.

The comeback of the large hair bows highlights the timeless appeal and charm of this traditional accessory. Bow hair clips are a versatile way to enhance any hairstyle. Whether you're going for an everyday look, a sophisticated evening style, or you have a garden party to attend, no matter what your hair length, or outfit, there’s a bow hair clip and style to suit every occasion.
