Bobby pins, hair bands, head bands, barrettes, scarves and more. Hair accessories are a must and, let’s admit it, they’re fun to collect too. But then what?

Too often they get lost in a drawer, shoved to the back of a closet and simply lost. Or course, when it’s time to get ready, you can never find the accessory you want (not to mention that you’ve already forgotten about half of them).

When you get to the point where you’re ready to get organized, the following tips will help you find your hair accessories when you need them. It might help you save a little money too because you won’t be as tempted to buy new accessories when you know what you already own.

Ways to Organize Your Hair Accessories

Hair tie holder. Buy a hair tie or use a shower curtain hoop or a carabiner to hold all of your hair ties together

Ring holder. Purchase a cute ring holder and use it to hold your hair bands instead of rings. There’s nothing easier than dropping them on the holder and picking one off.

Brush basket. Combs, brushes, picks and more take up space on countertops. But, stick them all in a cute basket and they take up a lot less space. Plus, you’ll know exactly where they are.

Bobby pin box. Save the tin after you’re done with refreshing mint treats or buy a cute pill box and tuck your bobby pins inside. For travel and home, these nifty containers keep your bobby pins neatly together.
