I will never get over John Legend serenading his wife, Chrissy Teigen, about her “headband of the day.” Yes, sure, part of the reason people loved it was because it was cute. But it put into words something many of us had never really thought to say out loud: headbands not only serve a functional purpose to hold your hair in place, but they also look really cute while they’re doing it. John and Chrissy, thank you.

A monochromatic look like Zendaya’s (aka matching your headband to your dress) is such a fashion power-move. The thick sash of fabric perfectly holds her swept up hair in place. And if you aren’t into bows, NBD—just knot it at the nape of your neck and let it hang.

Model Devon Windsor chose what could arguably be called the headband of the year to pick up her marriage license. Since it first came out, we’ve spotted this Lele Sadoughi knotted-and-embellished band everywhere. It now comes in basically every color so you could wear one ever day of the week if you wanted. Try it down for formal occasions or use it to polish off a pony on those days where you forgot your phone call was actually a video meeting.

A subtle headband can perfectly compliment a not-so-subtle beauty look. We love this sporty band Rowi Singh paired with her ocean-inspired wavy eye look. (Plus, they’re also the best for holding back hair while you wash your face.)
