Published in Hair styling 2 mins read

Tying a hair scarf can be done in several stylish ways, and here's one method based on the provided reference, which focuses on a square wrap technique.

Square Wrap Technique

This technique is simple, versatile, and great for a classic look.

  1. Start with a square scarf.
  2. Fold the scarf. You can fold the square scarf diagonally into a triangle.
  3. Position the scarf on your head. Place the folded scarf so that the longest edge is at your hairline.
  4. Tie the ends. Bring the two ends of the scarf back to your nape. Tie them securely in a knot.
  5. Tuck and adjust. Tuck the loose ends at the back. Adjust the scarf as needed for comfort and style. The result is a neat, finished look, as seen in the reference video, which can also be worn to the side by simply positioning the scarf on the side of the head and using the same steps.

Variations

While the core of the square wrap method is consistent, you can experiment with the following variations:

  • Side knot: As mentioned, you can achieve a similar look by positioning the scarf to the side and following the same steps.
  • Headband style: Instead of covering the entire head, you can fold the scarf into a narrow band and tie it around your head like a headband.
  • Turban style: By folding and twisting the scarf strategically, you can create a full turban look.

Tips for Tying a Hair Scarf

  • Choose the right size: Depending on your desired style, use a square scarf of appropriate size. Larger scarves offer more coverage and styling options.
  • Fabric matters: Opt for lightweight and soft fabrics such as silk, satin, or cotton for comfort and ease of styling.
  • Practice makes perfect: Don't worry if your first attempt isn't perfect. Practice will help you become more confident and skilled in tying a hair scarf.
