Scarves with Attached Strings

• Using a scarf that comes with an attached string can make tying the scarf to your head a simpler process.
  
  To use a scarf with attached string, first position the scarf in the desired location on your head. Starting from the bottom of your head, underneath your hair, tie the strings around the tail of the scarf. To ensure the scarf is tight on your head, finish off the look by wrapping the strings around the tail of your scarf again and tying them underneath your hair.
  
  

Criss-Cross Style

• A criss-cross style is a simple and casual way to tie your head scarf. To wear a scarf using a criss-cross style, position the scarf in the desired location on your head. Take two opposite ends of the tail of the scarf from and criss cross them underneath your hair. Then, bring the sides up and tie them in a loose knot around the tail.
  
  

Bun Style

• The bun style is a variation of criss-cross style, and will give you a more tailored and elegant look. However, resist the temptation to tie the bun too tight or it will fall off.
  
  To tie a bun style, position the scarf in the desired location on your head. Gather the tail of the scarf together, and wrap the scarf around in a bun. Once there is no more scarf to wrap, tuck the ends of the scarf into your bun.
