Woven hair trend replaces 90's rainbow hair wraps, takes Instagram by storm
Remember your 90's rainbow hair wraps you got at the beach? They're back -- but this time, they have a little more finesse.
Woven hair, or hair tapestry, is the latest festival hair trend taking Instagram by storm. It's bold, it's colorful, and it's definitely a fun way to get a unique look. Inspired by traditional tapestry from Argentina, the British Salon 'Bleach London' has been offering up the hairstyle and showcasing the looks online, which are pretty remarkable!
Needle-work pros or stylists use a tapestry loom and thread to create intricate detail through the locks. From just a few colors to rainbow stripes, or even adding stars or hearts, there are a number of ways to showcase your style on your strands. Whether you're hitting a music festival, or you just want a distinctive look, tapestries are a fun way to play up your hair!
While the art itself may be old school, one thing's for sure: This look seems much trendier than you're grandmother's crochet.
