… let me count the ways!
I got this super silky scarf, and my [almost] sister in law expressed her concern for how it would slip off easily! Enter the velvet headband! With it, I can wear the slipperiest scarves for hours and hours, and I don’t even need to check on it!
As well… check out this scarf! It’s much less colourful than my usual, but is elegant and looks beautiful without a complicated tie or volumizer.
Here is today’s wrap. I felt like I was doing something quick and simple when I wrapped it in the morning, but every time I looked at it I was impressed with how well it matched my outfit (I had on a turquoise skirt). Just goes to show you that a patterned shirt can bring together clashing scarves! Hmm… maybe this is a key to world peace!
I have never tried doing a single twist with one scarf before… it was time to give it a go! The result was beautiful; Intricate yet casual. I will definitely be doing this one again!
This scarf is such a wonder. I often invent new ways to wrap it thinking “maybe this time it won’t look so good”, and so far, everything I have done with it looks incredible! Do you have a scarf which also does this? If not, I highly recommend finding one 🙂
It’s awesome how a simple twist can add new interest to a scarf that could be a bit blah on its own 🙂
This scarf is one of the first tichels that I purchased. I love its versatility, but had never worn it in a formal setting. I decided to try it out! Who knew that with a little extra height and a sparkly pin, this scarf could be just as fancy as the rest of ’em! The elastic in the scarf kept everything put for the whole night, and the pin held everything together with a little extra security. I will definitely be trying this one again!
If you have been following this blog for a while, you may already know about my love for the “sari scarf” that I own. For those of you that don’t, a sari scarf is a scarf made of recycled sari strips. It’s beautiful, and with one easy knot makes it look like you are wearing a myriad of scarves on your head. I wear mine whenever I need to pull off something fast and formal… so when I found another one in thrift store ($3!) of different colours from the one I already own, I decided to get it. Here it is!
And here is the tutorial on how to do this wrap!
I love this scarf! It’s so simple, and the colour is beautiful and flattering. And because it’s so light and soft, it’s perfect for the summer!
This wrap was so “new” to me a month ago… now it’s one of my most used styles! I wore it for the whole day today and it took me from a formal occasion to heavy lifting to nannying to grocery shopping… and all the way back home! This picture was snapped when I walked in the door, so you can see that it hasn’t budged since the morning (thank you velvet headband!) Yes, I know it looks complicated, but the four tail braid is super easy once you get the knack of it 🙂
Check out the tutorial here.
I am loving this waterfall twist wrap that I recently did a tutorial on (see the tutorial here). It is so easy and elegant! And it’s easy to make it even more fancy by adding a thin scarf/sash to the wrap. Check it out!
(Please note that these photos were taken post 15 hour bus trip and pre makeup, which is why I look a little more tired than usual 😛 )

Should we do more Wrapunzel giveaways?
On Sunday I gave a talk and demonstration at a hair wrapping extravaganza in the Young Israel of Philadelphia. This was my first time speaking beyond the “hows” of covering and getting into the “whys”. The event was very well put together; I had an inspiring time, was smiling all the way home and look forward to doing many more events like this in the future! AND, I got to meet Judith of Judith de Paris in person!
Lots of scarves, lots of layers, lots of volumes, lots of colour! This wrap is simply the wrap of lots! I’m loving it… what do you think?
I tried a very very layered wrap with two different pink scarves. Here is the result:
What do you think? Too much pink or just the right amount?
Hello Everyone! Here is the tutorial showing how to do the new fancy tie that I just featured!
… and you can look forward to two more videos tutorials of requested ties that I made today! They will be posted this week!
It’s amazing how the same wrap can look drastically different with different scarves. These are both scarves that I’ve showed you on this site before. The first one is yellow and made of a very thin cotton:
The second one is a thicker pashmina-like scarf, that had large vertical stripes and intricate texture. Vive le difference!
This is proof that you only need to master one wrap and then try it with different scarves to get a myriad of different styles! The wrap used for both of the above examples is a Regal Wrap.
Happy Wrapping Y’all! ❤
Hi Everyone, I apologize for my lack of daily posts! The reason was that the Jewish holiday of Shavuot came right in the middle of the week, and of course, since I don’t use technology on these days, taking photos of head wraps wasn’t possible. I did, however, create a new style that I’m very excited to share (and will hopefully take photos of this weekend)! For now, here is what I wore on my head for the eve going into the holiday. My husband gave me the cream/grey/black scarf as a holiday present, and I added the teal to match my skirt. The tie is a double twist. Since the scarf is multi-tonal, it looks like I’m wearing a lot more than two scarves (especially in the twist part)! Thank you to my lovely friend who snapped these photos 🙂
