Fall is here and it's time to adorn yourself with new hats and hair accessories, all while preventing breakage. Personally, I love to wear hats. Apart from them keeping my head warm, I feel like they add a stylish edge to any look. The same goes for hair accessories — an embellished headband can make a seemingly plain ponytail look ultra-chic.

Admittedly, I probably have over 30 hats, from wooly beanies to wide-brim fedoras, and my hair accessory collection is just as excessive. So, you'll understand how surprised I was when I learned that some of the material used to make my hats and hair accessories could break off my hair — yep, complete shock.

My discovery made me realize that it's important to pay attention to the type of hair accessories you wear, especially if you have natural hair. If you have to tug at your hat to get it off, or if you see that your hair sheds every time you remove a hairband, chances are you're damaging your hair.

According to celebrity hair stylist Kim Kimble, some hair accessories cause a lot of friction which pulls on the hair, dries it out, and results in damage. "It's best to wear satin or silk lined accessories as silk smooths over the hair, helps to reduce friction and retains moisture," she shares.

Enough said. And that's why we've compiled a list of accessories that look fabulous and won't damage your delicate natural strands.

Blissy Silk Skinny Scrunchies

These silk skinny scrunchies are perfect for tying your hair in a ponytail — no frizz, no tugging, no damage — just pure silky smoothness. The pack of three comes with a gold, pink and black scrunchie, so you can match your outfit to one of your choice.
