How to tie a turban on your head?

Turning to the photos of extravagant, courageous, attractive women, for example, Greta Garbo, Elizabeth Taylor, Barbara Streisand, we can immediately answer the question why such headgear, like turbans, are increasingly beginning to decorate the heads of dummies in super-trendy shops and dazzle on the heads of modern connoisseurs of fashion, returning a well-deserved, though slightly forgotten love for themselves.

Kinds of turbans

There are several options for tying this eastern splendor. Consider the main ways how to tie turbans on your head.

Headband turban . This headdress does not cover the whole area of ​​the head, but simply frames it with its beautiful patterns of twisted fabric or simply lays down an even strip. Ahead at the edge of the hair at the top of the forehead, the item is "intercepted" by a brooch or any decoration.

How can I twist such a turban on my head? Everything is extremely simple, if only there was a strip of cloth corresponding to the chosen image. The bandage can converge at the top of the forehead into a decorative knot or the real one, which can be elementaryly tied up without the help of a professional at home. You can simply twist the fabric of the texture you like on your forehead one or more times, stop at one turn or wrap your head around as many turns as the fabric allows, and then hide the ends and fasten the back, for example, with "invisible" ones. This fashionable headdress serves as an excellent complement to the hairstyle.

Shawl "turban" on the head . The shawl itself can serve as a bandage or a headdress that will cover the entire surface of the head. With the first option everything is clear, we will stop on the second. To tie a scarf-turban you need to take a few steps:

  1. We cover with a handkerchief a head with hair so that the forehead has been opened almost completely.
  2. The ends of the scarf on the side that just dropped on the forehead, winding back and twisting, or tying. The lower part of the kerchief, if the shawl itself is wide, is also twisted already behind, and the ends are combined with the upper ones. If the scarf is narrow, then the lower part simply hides under the coils.
  3. The resulting ends are sent again to the forehead, framing the head - the first coil is ready.
  4. If the handkerchief is long enough, we twist it again, but already 2 times to make a nice knot, and repeat the path of the ends of the scarf back.
  5. Repeat the steps until we achieve the desired number of turns or until the fabric has run out. We fix the ends and hide under the coils.

Another interesting way, where we need a long but not wide handkerchief :

  1. Cover the head with the wide side of the kerchief, and send the long ends forward, unlike the previous method.
  2. We connect them, at the same time twisting it to make a kind of tourniquet, and stop above the ear from the opposite side. Continue to twist the tourniquet to the very end of the fabric.
  3. In the end we make, for example, a bow or leave the ends hanging from the side of the head, and the bundle is decorated with a gentle brooch.

A turban cap . These products can be purchased already ready and worn with pleasure immediately, without thinking about how to make a knot and twist the fabric correctly. In the cold season, this little thing can become indispensable in your wardrobe.

Summer turbans are very handy. They will make an excellent and stylish company sarafans, beach tunics, skirts on the floor. However, summer turbans on the head should be as convenient as possible, miniature and not massive. An excellent option for the heat are shawls made of the finest materials, ready-made turbaned blouses made of delicate lace or fashionable thin bandages-turban on wire frames, which will be worn and removed especially easily, as well as modeling the variants of their position on the head.
