The hair ornaments, called 'kanzashi,' were originally worn thousands of years ago to ward off evil spirits. In more modern times, they were simply decorative objects used to augment or hold large/complicated hairstyles in place. Their usage has declined, and are usually worn with traditional clothing, but are still certainly worn by anyone looking to add a stylish touch to their hair.
