This is unmistakably 1980s boho kid energy—a vintage lot of woven ribbon hair barrettes and ties bursting with color, texture, and handmade charm. Bright primaries, rainbow braids, pom poms, wooden beads, and ribbon tails that absolutely refused to stay neat.
These are the kinds of hair accessories worn to summer camp, craft fairs, amusement parks, and school picture day when moms said, “Don’t touch it, I just fixed it.” Folk-inspired, playful, and unapologetically DIY-looking in the best possible way.
All pieces are authentic vintage, not reproductions. The woven sections are intact, colors remain vibrant, and the metal barrette backs are present and functional. Wear is consistent with real childhood use—nothing fragile, nothing precious.
Condition:
• Vintage used condition
• Light fraying and wear consistent with age
• Metal backs intact and working
• Beads and pom poms secure
• No major damage noted
Sold as a lot—because the 80s were about excess, not editing.
The Rad Reused:
Because every one of us had at least one of these—and no memory of how it ended up in our hair.
