Quick Guide On How To Turban
Most people will identify turbans as the traditional Islamic head gear mainly worn by men in the Middle East. Strangely enough other cultures are now adopting this fashion item as a trendy accessory at parties and casual or formal gatherings. Here is a quick easy guide on how to turban for anyone who is brave enough to try it out.
Those who wear it on a daily basis will be most accustomed to the procedure. It will be second nature and they can do it without even thinking about it. For newcomers, it may seem a little tricky. An Internet search will reveal different styles and different ways of tying it, but they are more or less the same.
The turban can be purchased in shops that sell Eastern wear. They are usually only used for men, so look in the relevant department. Perhaps consult with the sales staff about which fabric and colors are most recommended. Cotton is usually the best material because it is light and cool.
The most popular and common colors are black and white. Muslim men usually wear their turbans with a kurtha, which is the long dress worn by men of this faith. In modern culture, some Western men are now opting to wear a turban with jeans and shirt to a wedding or smart casual occasion.
These easy guides on how to turban will assist with putting the garment on once you are ready. The first thing is to get dressed completely, leave the turban for last because once it is on, nothing else will fit over the head. The tail is the always first to be put in place so put the garment over the head with a little piece hanging at the back till the middle of the spine.
Place the left hand on the head to hold the rest of it in place as you wind it around the head from left to right. Continue with the circular pattern of winding. Make sure it is loose enough to allow movement of the head with ease yet it should not be so loose as to fall off. It is optional to wear a cap underneath to keep the hair securely in place.
Keep on turning the fabric around and around slightly twisting it each time to give it some style. Continue until you get to the end of the strip and tuck the end piece under a fold or pin it in place. Slowly move the head in all directions to be sure that it is comfortable and unlikely to fall off.
With new emerging fashion trends and a global eye on the Eastern world, turbans are surprisingly becoming more popular. It no longer looks strange to see someone donning a turban at a wedding or office party. If you are a first time user, it is also possible to get a professional to wrap the garment for you for the first time. Thereafter it should be easier to do on your own. However, if you follow these guidelines on how to turban you can not go wrong.
