Don't Buy - D.I.Y! Givenchy Spiked Headband
Of course, now that I've written this all up I see that Style Hurricane has posted her own tutorial, featured in Foam Magazine. Well gosh darn golly gee now I feel silly. In any case, here's the tutorial I've been working on (completely independently - really!!)...
Inspired by this Givenchy piece above (featured on Who What Wear awhile back), I made my own spiked headband. (I'm not paying $500 for the Givenchy one, at any rate! This project will cost you, at the most, $12 if you don't already have the spikes.)

Yeah, it's kind of spiky, so it's probably better with hair that isn't going to get in a tangle.
Thank you for your comments, ladies!
