How to Make a Head Turban

There are many styles of turbans.

Whether you're having a bad hair day or are battling cancer and need a chic head covering, you can quickly turn a simple square of cloth into a glamorous turban. The turban ties in the front and the ends are tucked to stay firmly in place. Select a fabric pattern to match your outfit or something bright to cheer up your day.

Things You'll Need

• Fabric piece, 37 inches square

Instructions

1. Fold opposite corners of the fabric square together to form a triangle.

2. Place the center point of the triangle at the nape of your neck with the fold over the crown of your head.

3. Bring the center point over the top of your head toward your forehead. Bring the end points around to the front and tie them above your forehead.

4. Tuck the center corner under the front tie and then tuck each tied end into the sides of the turban.

Tips & Warnings

• Add a decorative pin or brooch to your turban.
