Metallic Horn, Sequin Cat Ears and Oversized Sequin Grosgrain Bow · 12 Colours · Girls and Kids
This unicorn headband leads with its bow. A large grosgrain ribbon bow sits at the centre, backed by a sequin-covered version of itself, with a tall metallic spiral horn rising from the middle and sequin cat-style ears either side. The design is bolder and more statement-making than a plain horn-and-ears band, and the sequin surfaces catch and reflect light in a way that reads very well in photographs and in dimly lit party venues.
Available in 12 colours including rainbow, white iridescent, blue, dark green, hot pink, pale pink and silver, there is a version for every unicorn theme and outfit palette. The rigid plastic headband is colour-matched in each version, giving the whole piece a cohesive, finished look. At £6.99 it sits alongside the other headbands in this collection as an excellent value option that delivers more visual impact than most accessories at this price.
Key Features at a Glance
About the Unicorn Sequin Bow Headband
The design hierarchy of this headband is clear from the front. The large grosgrain bow is the widest element and sets the overall proportions. The sequin bow sits directly on top of it, adding sparkle and depth to what would otherwise be a flat fabric shape. The horn rises from the centre knot of the bow, anchoring the unicorn theme clearly. The sequin ears sit to either side, lower than the horn and slightly forward-facing, giving the headband a broad, even profile that photographs well from directly in front.
The sequin surfaces vary across colour versions. In the rainbow version, the large sequin bow uses reversible or flip sequins that show multi-colour movement as the headband is worn and the child moves. The iridescent white version uses pale, opalescent sequins that shift between white, pink and mint. The solid colour versions such as blue, hot pink and dark green use tone-on-tone sequins that add texture and sheen without a colour shift. All versions catch light actively, which makes them particularly effective in indoor party lighting and in flash photography.
The rigid plastic headband provides a more secure, stable fit than an elastic band for older children. It sits comfortably on most child head sizes from approximately age 3 upward and can also be worn by adults at themed events. For children with very fine or slippery hair, a small grip clip placed behind the headband will keep it securely in position during active play.
How This Differs from the Other Unicorn Headbands
This headband occupies a distinct visual space from the other unicorn headbands in the collection. The floral crown headband (on elastic nylon) is softer and more delicate, suitable from newborn age. The mane extension headband adds a flowing hair element. This sequin bow headband is the most visually bold of the three: it leads with sparkle, has the largest overall footprint across the head, and suits older children and events where maximum visual impact is the goal. All three work well together as a range precisely because they each offer something different at the same price point. For more on the full unicorn accessory range, see our unicorn-themed birthday outfits guide.
Available in 12 Colours
All 12 versions share the same construction: grosgrain bow, sequin bow overlay, spiral horn and sequin cat ears. The horn, sequins and headband are colour-coordinated within each version.
Colour Notes
Rainbow is the most popular version and uses multi-colour metallic sequins on the horn with a large flip-sequin bow that catches the light from multiple angles. The sequin ears are also multi-colour. This version works with virtually any outfit or party theme.
White / Iridescent uses opalescent, colour-shifting sequins that move between white, pale pink and mint. It is the most subtle and elegant version in the range and suits weddings, flower girl roles and Holy Communion as well as parties.
Blue, Dark Green, Hot Pink, Pale Pink, Silver, Gold, Black, Red, Purple and Deep Pink / Magenta all use tone-on-tone sequins in the matching colour. The solid colour versions are the strongest choice when the headband needs to coordinate with a specific outfit or theme colour.
Sequin colours shift visually depending on lighting and screen display. If colour coordination is important, get in touch before ordering and we will advise on the best match.
What Is This Headband Suitable For?
The bold bow design and sequin surfaces make this headband particularly effective for events and occasions where visual impact matters. In group party photographs, this headband reads clearly even in busy, colourful settings. In individual portraits or photoshoots, the sequin bow adds texture and light-catching movement that enriches the image. For Halloween, the black version creates a striking, moody look. For Christmas parties, the red, gold and silver versions coordinate naturally with festive palettes.
At £6.99 it is also a strong party bag choice when bought in quantity, particularly for unicorn-themed birthday parties where the wide colour range allows every guest to receive a different colour. Bought alongside a matching unicorn dress, this headband creates one of the most cohesive, visually complete unicorn costume combinations available at this price point.

Frequently Asked Questions
What colours does this headband come in?
The headband is available in 12 colours: Rainbow, White / Iridescent, Blue, Dark Green, Hot Pink / Fuchsia, Pale Pink, Silver, Gold, Black, Red, Purple and Deep Pink / Magenta.
What makes this different from the other unicorn headbands in the range?
This headband leads with a large oversized grosgrain ribbon bow and sequin overlay, giving it considerably more visual width than a standard horn-and-ears band. It also uses rounded cat-style sequin ears and a rigid colour-matched plastic headband. It is the boldest and most statement-making option in the unicorn headband collection.
Are the sequins flip or reversible?
On some versions, particularly rainbow and iridescent white, the bow sequins are reversible and show colour movement as the headband is worn. On solid colour versions such as blue, hot pink and green, the sequins are tone-on-tone but still catch light actively and add strong sparkle.
Is this headband suitable for World Book Day?
Yes. The bold bow and horn create a clearly recognisable unicorn costume look without needing additional pieces. Paired with a unicorn dress or any pink or white outfit, the headband reads as a complete unicorn character costume.
Which colour should I choose for a pink unicorn party?
Pale Pink, Hot Pink / Fuchsia or Deep Pink / Magenta coordinate directly with pink unicorn themes. Rainbow also works naturally with pink as a base. For a contrasting complement, silver or white iridescent are elegant alternatives that do not compete with the outfit colour.
Can this headband be used for Halloween?
Yes. The black version creates a striking Halloween unicorn look. The bold bow and sequin surfaces also work well at Halloween parties where visual impact in dimly lit venues matters.
Is this suitable as a party bag gift?
Yes. At £6.99 across 12 colours it is a popular choice for unicorn party bags. Buying different colours for different guests adds variety, and the sequin bow design gives a perceived value noticeably higher than the price.
