The head scarf is making a comeback this season & is the perfect accessory for an updo, especially on these hot summer nights!
Instead of going out and buying a piece, here's a cool thrifty way to create your own head scarf!
1. Find a scrap piece of fabric long enough to wrap around your head; (a wide strip about 5-10 inches is good!) An old scarf will do also.
2. Tie a knot in the middle of your fabric or follow Keiko Lynn's steps to creating a head scarf with an actual scarf... I tried the basic overhand know but use this diagram to try out different ones!
3. Take your knotted fabric and position it across your head like you would a headband. Place the knot in the middle, side, wherever you want!
4. Tie the side of the fabric behind the your head right below where your hair meets your neck! You can use a bow or tuck the extra fabric under the band you created!
5. Enjoy your new, free!, head scarf/head band/head turban look! You'll be the talk of the town ;)
See Marcela's lovely post about this raging trend here for more inspiration!
