"Hello, this is Gabriela Garzon at G.G. Image and Etiquette Consulting in Coral Gables, Florida. In this clip, I'm going to talk about different ways on how to tie a tie. There are different ways, but really, the average man only knows the basic one way, or the one that his father or his grandpa taught him. But, I will show you two or three different ways on you how to learn to tie a tie. First, make sure your collar's up, take the tie in your right hand, and wrap it around the part on your left hand. Once, twice, and then under and out, and you bring it on the top. The piece that you brought over the top, you're going to put it through the loop. You bring it all the way down. Then tie the tie by pulling it up on the front and down on the back. All the way to your neck that if feels comfortable enough to close your tie. The second way, or another way that you can do, is just to have your tie pre-tied. You can see that he...you had it pre-tied, put it over his head, and just go ahead and pull it up. So that's another way that you can have to just go ahead and do a different way. This is Gabriela Garzon at G.G. Image and Etiquette Consulting in Coral Gables, Florida."
