Designer headbands hairstyle ideas with the Hermès Naoussa Gabi headband
I just got the Hermès headband but you can do these headband hairstyles with any Hermès bandana, designer headband, regular headband or hair scarf. I chose the Hermès Naoussa Gabi headband as I wanted something to go with my Hermes Chaines Chaines D’ancre sandals I just reviewed. It’s actually called Naoussa print but it looks exactly like Chaines D’ancre to me. So I thought I’d unbox this Hermès hair accessory with you, review it, and share some ways to style your headband. Whether that’s more of an Alice band headband style or something more like this Hermès hair scarf headband.

Hermès headband review | What’s in the box
The Hermès bandana is carefully wrapped in tissue paper and comes in the signature orange Hermès boxed, tied off with their brown ribbon.

What color does the Hermès headband come in
I got this Hermès headband in bleu noir as I wanted it to go with my black Hermes sandals and also because most of swimwear I’d wear it with is black. Plus black goes with pretty much anything. It does also come in a tan and cream option that’s iconic to Hermes.

One thing I didn’t realize is that this Hermes Headband is made of waterproof jersey material so it’s perfect for the pool and beach which is where I’ll probably wear it the most.

How does the Hermès bandana fit
The Hermès Gabi Naoussa headband comes in small and medium and I got the small after trying it on in the Hermès store. I tend to like this style of material headband to be snug so it doesn’t slip as silky fabrics like to do. I almost wish they made a smaller size, as this 3.3″ Hermès headband does still slip a little.

How to style designer headbands
A headband can be worn through any season and is the perfect way to add some personal style to your outfits and keep hair out of your face. Headbands are also a way to tie your outfit and whatever brand you’re wearing together by choosing an option that features a logo, like this Hermes headband.

The whole reason I got this Hermès bandana and was looking for more Hermes Chaines D’ancre pieces, was to tie my Hermès sandals outfit together and create a cohesive look. And this was one of the more affordable ways to do it. If I keep building on this collection, it’ll probably be with Hermès accessories to get the best cost per wear vs clothing.

This Hermes Gabi headband with it’s “Naoussa” print is designed to be worn with the knot in the front and the elastic on the back but besides that you can wear it any way you want. I have 10 styling ideas for it, to give you some inspiration to get the most wear out of it and all of your other headbands.
