So how did it all start? It has long been believed that the diadem was exclusively an accessory for men; in ancient times, women did not wear this kind of jewelry.

The word "diadem" in ancient Greece was called a hair band.

Tiaras were worn by Roman kings,

they depicted Greek gods and goddesses, and especially often the goddess of family and marriage - Hera and, of course, Aphrodite - the goddess of love and beauty.

Tiaras were no less popular among the Russian empresses. It is believed that the first decorations of this type appeared during the reign of Peter the Great.Confirmation of this is the portrait of his wife Catherine, which flaunts an elegant decoration in her hair.

Tiaras have always been considered a real luxury, they were made of precious metals, decorated with various stones, pearls and crystal. Many diadems of that time belonged to empresses, but some of the jewelry was state property. Monarchs could only temporarily borrow diadems for receptions and balls. The Russian nobility was not alien to the fashion inspired from Europe, but, nevertheless, national motifs were always present in the jewelry.

The diadem became popular back in Europe in the 19th century,

and today, thanks to pop culture, this jewelry is associated not only with royal persons, but also with celebrities and famous movie characters.

We all know Audrey Hepburn's flirtatious character in Breakfast at Tiffany's, where her hair was adorned with just the same tiara.

The diadem has the shape of a crown, but this crown is not always closed.

The tiara is most often unchanged in width and has a fairly light and simple design. Sometimes it looks like a small crown.

At one time, tiaras were reserved exclusively for princesses. For the young and romantic.

The crown, on the other hand, is inspired by the luxury of bygone centuries and reminds us of the era of the reign of real kings and queens. It is a closed ring, decorated with all kinds of stones and made of expensive metals.

When choosing a diadem, the shape of the face is important. A well-chosen hair ornament will make you a real lady, but the wrong choice can emphasize flaws.

Almost all models of tiaras and diadems are suitable for girls with an oval face type. But from the "high" models, perhaps, you should refrain. But such “high” tiaras or tiaras-crowns will be very suitable for chubby girls, since with the help of such an accessory you can visually lengthen the face. The square type of face is very suitable for jewelry without accents in the central part. An ideal option would be a hoop diadem or a diadem in the Greek style. A triangular type of face is suitable for a tiara or diadem of the same height. You can visually shorten an elongated face with a diadem without unnecessary points.

When choosing a tiara or diadem, do not forget about hair color. So, sparkling tiaras interspersed with small stones and beads are very suitable for brunettes, tiaras made of pearls in different shades are ideal for blondes. And girls with red hair should give up very bright and colorful tiaras and choose something sparkling.

Most often, tiaras and diadems have teeth along the rim, which greatly facilitate the task and will not be superfluous insurance, as they will tightly hold this accessory in the hair. This option is called a diadem - comb. Any girl can handle it.

To create a Cinderella look, you can straighten your hair to medium length, style your bangs and complete everything with a beautiful decoration - a diadem.

But long hair is a space of boundless imagination, variations of hairstyles and various styling. Small curls or large curls falling over the shoulders will look perfect with this decoration. Hair gathered in a bun will also look win-win, and the image, of course, should be supplemented with a diadem. There are so many hairstyle options that it is worth experimenting and choosing the one that suits you.

An important point is that the hair should not hang over the top of the diadem, i.e. cover it, it should be in the very center of the hairstyle and be open. Also carefully combine the diadem in a wedding look. This decoration looks very harmonious with a veil, but do not forget that if the diadem is fragile and thin and is located directly above the forehead, then it is better to refuse the veil.
