#HEAD WRAP SCARF HOW TO#
In this tutorial, Joelle will demonstrate how to wear a scarf on your head three ways and s how you how to get the most bang for your buck concerning your wardrobe. Scarves are the perfect addition to any outfit in the summertime the weather is hot, outfits are casual and the addition of a silk scarf tied in your hair can turn even a basic jean short and t-shirt into something special. How to find the right size of scarf: Though this one is fully dependent on the style you’re doing and how much hair you’re working with, Akilah says a good rule of thumb is to “get a scarf long enough to wrap around your head twice, or you won’t be able to achieve certain styles.” Her Kilah Crowns wraps are roughly 22x70 inches, but make sure to check the measurements before investing in a new scarf (like one of these below!).If you’re looking for easy and creative ways to tie a head scarf, look no further!.Before wrapping, try braiding your hair down to prevent it from “catching,” then slide on a silk scarf or satin-lined cap as a protective base layer to keep moisture locked in while it’s wrapped. How to prevent damage from wrapping: Non-silk scarves can suck the moisture out of your hair while it’s wrapped, leaving it dry and brittle-so, you know, the exact opposite of protected.
#HEAD WRAP SCARF PRO#
“You can also place a wig cap over your hair before wrapping to give the scarf something to hold on to and keep it in place.” Another pro tip: Play around with a velvet wig grip to prevent your scarf from tugging on your hairline and sliding off.
“A lot of people aren’t able to make it to a hair salon right now and are trying a protective style, and headwraps are a great way to not only protect your hair, but do it fashionably.” Akilah, whose “quick and easy headwrap” tutorial (check it below) has more than 7.5 million views, says she initially got into wraps because “I had just gone natural, and I wanted something quick and fun that didn’t really require me to style my hair,” adding, “now it’s my thing-it feels so regal, and it makes me feel like a queen.”īuuut if you’re not exactly at the same 10/10 queen level (yet!) with your wrap skills, rest assured there’s a vast, magical world of tutorials and tips out there, starting with some solutions to the most common issues: “I have actually noticed a spike in views in my headwrap tutorials recently,” says Akilah, aka Kilahmazing, digital creator and founder of Kilah Crowns. Fact: Scroll through the comments section on any headwrap tutorial or headscarf Instagram right now, and you’ll see dozens of comments saying, “quarantine brought me here,” and “I needed this while my salon’s closed,” and “it’s summer and my hair needs help.” So if you’re currently digging through the interwebs for tutorials on how to tie a headwrap, rest assured that you are most definitely not alone.
