Baby headbands come in various types, including U-shaped and elastic bands with decorative accents like flowers, bows, and animal ears. Materials range from fabric to lace and velvet, with some headbands woven or crocheted.
The different types of baby headbands vary in their materials and appearance. The two main types of children’s headbands are the elastic band that is worn horizontally around the head and the U-shaped version that fits vertically close to the ears. While U-shaped hair ties can be found in hard plastic for older children, baby varieties are covered in fabric for softness, since many babies don’t have as much hair. Flowers and bows are common decorative accents on baby headbands, although some have other embellishments, such as animal features.
U-shaped, cloth-covered headbands for babies often have animal ears attached to the top for a cute look. These can be rabbit, bear, or cat ears in a soft animal-print fleece or other fabric that usually matches that of the main headband. A U-shaped children’s headband can also be covered in lace and have a ruffled edge along the length. Ribbon roses or gathered lace ruffles that resemble a flower can be attached to these types of baby headbands. Some horizontal band styles also have a lace design, but usually have a main section made of stretch lace.
An elastic lace infant headband that fits around the child’s head may have a large silk flower or fabric bow. Depending on the design of the flower, there could be a sparkling jewel-like center. The color combinations in which baby headbands are sold are extremely wide. Sometimes the color of the flower or bow is the same as the band, while in other styles the colors of the two parts may be different.
Some baby headbands are more casual in style, while others are quite dressy. Velvet and satin baby headbands are two of the most elegant types, as well as popular and classic varieties. Some of these have double arches, rather than single ones, for an elaborate appeal. Occasional baby headbands include those with animal ears or that have a whimsical feature, such as a small stuffed animal attached.
Rather than being created from fabric and silk flowers, some baby headbands are woven or crocheted. Since a woven or woven headband is naturally elastic in shape, it is often ideal for baby headbands. Most knitted and crocheted baby headbands include flower attachments worked from stitches to form the petals. Rather than a rectangular headband shape, some yarn or fabric headbands are made of an elastic cord and have a small loop attached to them.
