MIU MIU Pearl & Rhinestone Headband

Q: What is this headband made from?
A: It features a slim silver‑tone metal band embellished with faux pearls and multi‑coloured rhinestones, with an engraved Miu Miu logo. It is crafted in Italy.

Q: Are the pearls real?
A: No. The pearls on this piece are imitation (faux) pearls, chosen to achieve a luminous look while keeping the piece lightweight and durable for regular wear.

Q: Will it fit me?
A: This is a standard adult headband with a slim 1 cm band and an inner width of approximately 15 cm. The open, horseshoe design suits most head sizes. If you have a very petite or larger head, positioning slightly forward or back on the crown usually improves comfort and grip.

Q: Is it adjustable?
A: The band is a rigid metal frame and is not designed to be bent for size. Avoid flexing it, as this may loosen rhinestones or pearls. For a better fit, adjust the placement on your head or secure with discreet hairpins near the ears.

Q: Is it comfortable for all‑day wear?
A: Headbands can cause pressure behind the ears if worn for long periods. To maximise comfort, avoid pressing the ends directly into the tender area behind the ears, vary the position during the day, and consider adding soft end cushions or using a couple of hairpins to take pressure off the ends.

Q: Will the embellishments snag my hair?
A: The settings are generally smooth, but any embellished piece can catch fine hairs. Slide the headband in and out slowly, avoid back‑combing at the contact points, and consider a light spritz of hairspray or a smoothing serum before placing it to minimise flyaways.

Q: How should I clean and care for it?
A: After each wear, wipe the metal and stones gently with a soft, dry, lint‑free cloth. Keep it away from water, perfumes, hairspray and lotions, which can dull rhinestones and weaken adhesive. Do not soak. If needed, use a barely damp cloth on the metal only and dry immediately. Store it in its box, in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and humidity.

Q: Can I wear it in the rain or while exercising?
A: It’s best to avoid moisture and perspiration with crystal‑ and pearl‑embellished pieces. Remove the headband before exercising and before applying hairspray or perfume, and allow products to dry fully before putting it on.

Q: Does it come with original packaging or extras?
A: This item includes a presentation box as listed in the Accessories section. If an accessory isn’t listed there, it is not included—please ask us if you would like to confirm specific inclusions.
