Get To Learn How To Tie A Turban For Women

By Freda Watts


It is always a good idea to learn how to tie a turban for women especially if you are fond of wearing them at events. This garment has been worn for decades especially by the Muslim community from the days of Prophet Mohamed. However, today many people also wear them as a fashion symbol and knowing the technique of wrapping it around your head can be an added advantage.

The first thing that you have to buy is a turban cap if you plan to use the garment for long. This is because it allows you to hide your hair completely every single time it is used. However, it is not a must that you have it. The main thing that you need is the long piece of cloth, choose the measurements according to what is convenient for your purpose. The standard size is about twenty inches by fifteen yards. Light cotton is the fabric used in most cases. Have the cloth placed on the head in such a way that you still have about eight inches to spare at the back. This makes a simple tail in almost all designs.

Always use your left hand when it comes to anchoring the garment by pressing it against the head. This allows you to flexibly move the right hand around. You will have to make sure that the garment is secured tightly by the left hand before you start wrapping it.

You should use your right hand to form a horizontal circle using this cloth around the head. This should be done carefully so that the circle is approximately the same size as your head. By tightening the circle you will prevent the cloth from sliding.

Always ensure that the low point of the circle is farther every time. The initial circle that you make should be having the low point situated at the back of the head. This way your left hand can easily hold down the cloth in the area nearest to the low point.

After making the circle several times start to tilt it to approach the vertical. This is made possible by the mass that accumulated as you made the horizontal circles and now act as an anchor. When you just have about two feet of the cloth left start wrapping it horizontally on the head. This is what will hold things together.

To finish you will have to tuck in the remaining part into the previous wraps to have it in position. However, you will notice that the turban is now low on the forehead. To correct this you will have to tilt the whole mass of cloth. Do this until the forehead is finally clear.

To add some taste to this headgear you can form a colored band. This is not as difficult as it might seem since you only have to add a colored cloth to the garment. The white and gold combination is a classy one but you can also use your own colors. How to tie a turban for women is a simple thing to learn and the best part is there are many other techniques that you can know after this one.
