snood definition and meaning

What is a "snood"?

A snood is a type of hairnet that is worn over a woman's hair to keep it tidy and in place. It is typically made of a stretchy material that can fit snugly around the head and can cover the hair completely. Snoods come in various shapes and sizes, and they may be plain or adorned with decorations such as beads, sequins, or embroidery. Originally worn as a functional hair accessory, snoods have become a fashionable item in recent years, often worn as an alternative to a hat or headscarf. They are popular among women who have long hair, as they can be worn in a variety of styles and can add a touch of elegance to an outfit.
