Fun with Flowers, Blooms in Buns/Braids, Corsage Coiffures, Herbal Hairstyles, etc

My first hair thread, what a moment.

This is the result of a discussion from The Random Hair Thoughts Mega Thread.

In March of 2023, I started to decorate my hairstyles with fresh flowers/leaves from our rooftop gardens and plants in our neighborhood and well, it goes surprisingly well.

I don't know, maybe because both are things that grow well with enough care, water, and nourishment. Mother nature is indeed the best we can connect with.

No wonder for thousands of years, humans have been using flowers and other plant parts as hair accessories. I mean, in traditional Chinese hairstyle or Hanfu hairdo, all the basic hair accessories is generalized as "簪花(zan1 hua1)" which literally means decorative hair flowers.

As Whirly Girly said, "They're very charming, feminine and romantic."

I think I will continue to do this even when some of my plants fruit in summer and autumn. Here are some examples so far:





Detailed High-rec photo link to my latest herbal hairdo, I always link my photo to an Instagram post in case the photo link doesn't work somehow, the big crash scarred me for life so everything is duplicated from now on: https://www.instagram.com/p/CqSz_sOL...d=YmMyMTA2M2Y=


So I decided I should start a new thread about "Fun with Flowers, Blooms in Buns/Braids, Corsage Coiffures, Herbal Hairstyles, etc" (I adore alliteration lol)


If you think it's fun, and would like to share you pics or videos about your hair with blossoms, whether it's real flowers or un-real ones - paper, stone, metal, fabric, plastic... any material/medium works, including rose/rosette styles from buns/braids themselves：

Anyway, everything floral and herbal is welcome here. And links to high-rec photos/videos will be most appreciated.

Let's have fun with flowers.


It's not much of a secret that I have a bit of OCD tendency lol. But you don't have to follow my photo format, just post anything you want.
