Easy & Simple Scarf Hair Wrap Tutorial
I love a simple scarf hair wrap look. Having curly hair can be a blessing and a curse sometimes, especially when you live in Texas. Texas humidity is no joke and can really have your hair looking like a big nest. I usually do this simple scarf hair wrap look the day after wash day. This is a great daytime look for when you’re running errands around town. picking up the kids from school, or having a beach day. Oh, how I wish I were at the beach right now.
Types of Scarves:
- Cotton scarves
- Chiffon scarves
- Net scarves
- Silk Scarves
- Cashmere scarves / Pashmina scarves
- Satin scarves
- Wool scarf
- Bandana scarf
Best Scarves for this style: Cotton, Silk, and Satin.
I used a cotton scarf in this tutorial, but always choose the one that is best suited for you.
Silk and Satin is typically used for wrapping your hair to cold a style or for overnight protection. This particular style we are doing is just a daytime look. The cotton scarf does tend to absorb the moisture from your hair. If that is a concern, consider using a silk or satin scarf.
What you will need:
- Scarf (Cotton, Silk or Satin)
- Bobby Pins (2-6)
- Mini Rubber Bands (black or clear)
- Duck Bill Hair Clips
Tutorial:
Step 1: Divide Hair into 2 sections
Step 2: Fold Scarf in half and find center
Step 3: Place center crease of scarf in the center of your head. You’ll want the scarf to be close to or on your hairline. Hold it there.
Step 4: While holding your scarf on your head. Use 2 Duck Bill hair clips to hold scarf in place. One on each side. Make sure this is secure.
Step 5: Section your hair into three strands, using the scarf as your third.
Step 6: Braid your hair all the way to the end of your hair.
Step 7: Secure ends with a rubber band.
Step 8: Repeat on other side.
Step 9: Remove duck bill hair clips
Step 10: You’re All Done, and looking super cute!
