As seen on Chanel’s Prefall Métiers d’Art presentation in New York City, the French twist hair trend is back and better than ever in 2026. For long-lasting hold, spritz in some dry shampoo or a texturizing spray before securing your hair with a pin or a range of decorative combs.

Zoë Kravitz debuted a signature take on the style at the 2026 Golden Globes, courtesy of romantic, face-framing wisps of hair and intricate microbraids. The look was topped with a delicate and off-centered floral barrette, which added an extra hint of elegance.

We’re clocking just about all of Carolyn Bessette Kennedy’s beauty favorites right now, from her go-to musk perfumes to the simple yet elevated tortoiseshell headbands she wore on repeat. These printed accessories make it simple to zhuzh up a slicked-back bun or ponytail in seconds.

Bejeweled headpieces, mirrored statement earrings, and necklaces appeared on Simone Rocha’s catwalk this season, lending to the structured glamour of the designer’s looks.

Along with playful tinsel looks, models at Chopova Lowena wore curled clip-in pieces, vibrant bows, and braided hearts in their hair this season to place beauty at center stage alongside the brand’s collection.

Hairstyling at Rixo leaned into the ’70s era with expert placement of floral hair clips, the draping of gilded headpieces, and the addition of easy printed scarves tied over loose waves.

The hair bandanna is back for spring/summer 2026 and better than ever. At Emilia Wickstead, the designer opted for a printed take on the easy accessory.

Along with hair bandannas, Bazaar editors spotted whimsical hair clips that were as cute as a button at Sandy Liang.

Who needs a regular hat when you can mold one from extensions? Models this season at Collina Strada wore crocheted beanies and baseball hair hats created by celebrity stylist Mustafa Yanaz and team for Bumble and Bumble.

“For the beanies, I wanted the hair to feel light and playful, almost as if it carried static energy. I prepped with Bb.Thickening Dryspun texture spray before crocheting, which gave strands an airy lift without heaviness—that flyaway, lived-in energy you get after a playground slide,” Yanaz explains. “The baseball caps required more precision. I used Bb.Thickening Blow-Dry Prep Spray to prep the hair and shape the brim, clipping and spraying in layers to create sharp, lasting definition.”

Seen on the runway at House of Aama, bold prints and an easy tie quickly took hairstyling to the next level.

Bows are still trending, and we’re buzzing about the delicate pink bows expertly placed in models’ hair at LoveShackFancy. Celebrity stylist Brent Lawler crafted the playful, feminine looks on behalf of Batiste. “Usually we do lots of bows and ribbons, and there’s fantasy everywhere, but this feels like the inspiration was interjecting a bit of Americana into the LoveShackFancy girl,” he explains. “I wanted the hair to feel sophisticated but not feel old and dated.”

Colorful bandannas were also spotted on the runway at Christian Cowan, styled with glossy bends of hair peeking out from underneath them.

“This season is inspired by Carnival and the cross-pollination colonization of Afro and Indigenous peoples,” Luar’s Raul Lopez previously told Bazaar. For the brand’s Spring/Summer 2026 show, that inspiration was clear through lead stylist Sonny Molina’s placement of feathers, sequins, and more in models’ updos. “It’s kind of like painting: picking the right colors, shapes, and silhouettes and just going with it,” Molina told Bazaar backstage. “We also wanted to reflect this fantasy, weaving together the essence of the clothes into the hair for this combined aura of celebration and imagination.”
