1. The Bandana
Method: Fold the scarf in half to create a triangle. Place the long edge of the scarf on your forehead and tie the two corners of the triangle together at the back of your head.

3. The Wraparound
Method: Fold the scarf in half to create a triangle. With the triangle centred and pointing downwards, wrap the scarf around your neck and tie it underneath the bottom of the triangle, so that the knot is hidden.

4. The Hair Tie
