Form a triangle by bringing the opposite corners of the scarf together. Drape the scarf over the top of your head with the pointed end in the back. Cross the ends under your chin. Form a double knot at the bottom or at the side, whichever style you prefer. Keep in mind that if you want your hair completely covered, the scarf must be placed below the hair line.

Pull the ends of the scarf around the back of your head instead of bringing each to the front. Again, be creative and choose a style that best suits your needs. Tuck the triangle tail into the knot or let it hang for a more casual look.

Create a headband by centering the scarf under your hair at the back of your neck. Pull the ends up to the top of your head, twist, and then pull back around to the bottom. Tie a knot and then tuck the ends in. This will keep the ends from poking out from under your hair.

Wind the scarf around your hair and tie securely to fasten a bun or ponytail. Some scarves can be used to hold your hair together, while others are better off tied around a rubberband as an accessory. This style is easy to make your own. Play around and decide if the scarf looks better tied in a bow, wrapped completely around the ponytail or bun, or with the ends hanging freely.

Tips & Warnings
Silk scarves are best for cold autumn and winter days. Stay fashionable in the summer by using a cotton or linen scarf, which will allow your head to breathe and keep your hair from getting grimy. The most important step is to be creative and have fun. The more you play around with it, the more styles you can come up with. The best part about a scarf is its versatility, so be sure to create your own style.
