So what to do now? Keep it tied back in a bun? Why not show off your radiant tresses with just a touch of harmless hair accessorizing? Beautify your hair style.
What are “safe hair accessories”? They are hair accessories that won’t undo all the healthy hair care that you've worked so hard to achieve. Use safe hair accessories that treat your hair gently, so that your hair will continue to remain on your head and not on the accessory.
