It can be a memorable sight: a woman with a beautifully wrapped scarf on her head. It looks stylish and is a great solution to a bad hair day. It accentuates the eyes and face--and maybe best of all, it's not difficult to make this look work.

    Find the Right Length

    Consider different lengths and their effects. If, say, you're trying to re-create a wraparound look, use a much longer scarf than a simple handkerchief. After all, the scarf has to be long enough to actually wrap around your head.
  2. Find the Right Style

    Pore through some pictures or images; the ones here might be a good starting point. The important point is to make sure the style suits you. Don't just pick it because it looks good on the model.
  4. Take Your Time!

    Once you've found your scarf, make sure you follow directions. If you don't get the wrap right the first time, don't freak out--there's no rush. Take your time, go over the directions again, and try it until you get it. If you can find online videos or tutorials (see References below) on hair wrapping, that will help a lot. If not, have a friend work with you.
  6. Conclusion

  7. Know that wrapping your hair with a scarf often looks much more complicated than it is. Hair wrapping techniques are pretty much common sense. Following these tips and tricks will help you find a style and a scarf that works for you--and will have your friends asking how it's done.
