A subset of [[Hair Decorations]]. Flowers have long been a symbol of femininity, and therefore young women (and those who are young at heart) sometimes wear them in their hair.
 
These can take the form of a daisy chain headband or a single flower (or bunch) placed in the hair. The flowers can be real or artificial.
