How to wear for men

A turban is a headdress suitable not only for girls, but also for men. It is most often worn in North America and Asia. And it's not so much about fashion as it is about religion. In order to tie a turban with your own hands, you will need a piece of fabric at least 5.5 m in length. It's best if it's cotton. Algorithm of actions:

1. Fold the scarf in half, but so that it forms a triangle.
2. Drape it over your head so that the back of your head is covered by the wide part of the fabric. The ends of the fabric should hang over your face.
3. Then you tie the long ends together twice, and the remainder is secured again at the back of the head.
4. You can secure the fabric at the back with a pin or a regular knot.

If the turban is knitted from a silk scarf, then it is better to wear a special cap under it. It will not allow the fabric to slide over your hair. To make a voluminous turban, you need a piece of fabric not 5.5 m long, but 15 m long.

Difference between turban and turban

Sometimes a turban is also called a turban, but you need to know that there is a difference between them.

A turban is also a piece of cloth wrapped around the head. About 8 meters of material is taken for it, and brocade, velvet or cashmere is often used. A mandatory attribute of this headdress is its decoration with brooches or pearls.

Turban

Additional Information! For a long time in India, a headdress was not a decoration, but the main protection from the hot sun. To do this, the fabric was dipped in cool water before wrapping it around the head.

In modern society, this is a headdress not only for Hindus and Muslims - quite often you can see girls walking around the city in a turban. Those who pay close attention to fashion even wrap different colored fabrics around their heads to create a unique look. In India, men still wear voluminous traditional clothing.

Turban

The turban was initially smaller than the turban, but at first it was also worn only by the stronger sex, and only recently did girls also begin to use this oriental accessory.

Women's headband made from woven braids

One of the issues of the Knitted Piggy Bank magazine published an unusual headband for spring or summer, knitted from simple long strips of three colors, intertwined like a regular braid. Since the work is simple, you can tie several headbands for different outfits.

Tie three strips of different colors and braid them

Knitting a headband does not require a pattern. Tie 3 strips of different colors with a 1*1 elastic band and braid them like a braid. Finally, connect by color. To determine the length, after knitting 40 cm, cut three strips, braid them and measure on the head. If the length is not enough, continue knitting to the required volume.

Types of turbans

The skill of tying a turban yourself is a tribute to tradition and fashion trends at the same time. Before you start studying this or that technology, you need to decide what goals you want to achieve. Nowadays, the turban is most often worn:

1. As a national headdress;
2. As required by religion;
3. In winter, instead of a hat;
4. As an original addition to your everyday summer ensemble;
5. As an evening accessory;
6. Those who want to give their image an oriental charm;
7. Connoisseurs of retro, boho, ethno styles.

One of the purposes of a classic turban is to completely hide hair, however, modern fashionable solutions allow for long curls or playful bangs under a turban.

In cool latitudes, a turban of warm fabric is very relevant. With its originality, it will give odds to most standard hats; the tight fit and numerous folds provide reliable heat conservation.

A turban adorns the wardrobe of girls who cover their heads out of conviction, lovers of ethnic motifs and boho style; this African and Indian element looks no less original with casual jeans, shirts and sneakers. If desired, you can complement the sporty style with a turban; in this case, leave the top of your head open in the manner of a sports headband, gather long hair into a thick bun, and tousle the short hair properly.

If you remember history, the turban originally belonged to a man. The style of the oriental headdress evokes images of brave and romantic warriors, adventurers, and fabulously wealthy merchants. In modern India, businessmen and officials wear a turban that matches their business suit.
