What is it and what is it for?

In the classical sense, a turban is an elongated cloth scarf that is wrapped around the head several times. Initially, the turban appeared in the East and was very common among the inhabitants of India and Egypt.

According to historical information, the first data on this headdress appeared several millennia ago, and only Muslim men wore a turban.

The turban is made of different materials depending on the season. For example, in winter, a turban is used in as a warm headdress, and in the summer it sProtects from the scorching sun. It is also an obligatory element of the national costume. The turban is worn by lovers of retro and boho styles.

For residents of India using a turban regardless of the season is a necessity. The fact is that the oblong shawl keeps you cool in hot weather... At night, the fabric is soaked in ice water, and in the morning it is wrapped around its head. The product remains moist throughout the day.

By the way, in some Indian regions it is the turban, made of high-quality fabric and decorated with precious stones, that is an indicator of the luxury and wealth of its owner.

The turban is made from the following materials:

  • cotton, silk and chiffon (for summer);
  • wool and knitwear (autumn-winter).

For tying a turban, you can also use a piece of lightweight soft cloth (from 2 to 5 meters).Some fashionistas wind up on your head about 20 meters of fabric, thereby creating volume.

In addition to a turban made from a scarf, there are the following turban options.

The headband has a fancy weave on the outside. There are also beach turbans. They serve as a decorative function and protect the head from direct sunlight. The beach turban is most often made of cotton.

Tying methods

Building a turban on your head with your own hands is a simple matter. First of all, you need to make a "blank": fold the scarf diagonally. Next, place the product on the back of the head and wrap it around the head several times. Tuck the protruding ends under the scarf.

In addition to the classic method, there are the following techniques for tying a turban at home.

  • Eastern (Muslim). Fold the stole diagonally, define the center and place it on the back of the head, lowering the head forward. We cross the free ends, wind them back, wrap them crosswise and return them to the front. Tuck the tips under the turban.
  • African. In this case, we use a bright silk scarf with an original print. The turban turns out to be quite voluminous due to repeated wrapping of the material around the head. Moreover, the hair under the headdress is gathered in a neat bun.
  • There is also a "romantic" way. In this case, a piece of cloth covers the head by analogy with the oriental method, but the ends are fixed with a bright shiny brooch. Also, the scarf can be twisted into a tourniquet and wrapped around the head.

    Besides, the turban can be tied at the side, or its ends will remain free and fall beautifully over the shoulders. A turban is rarely combined with bangs. As a rule, all strands are neatly tucked under the scarf.

    What to wear with?

    An original and spectacular headpiece is in harmony with many things. For example, for everyday wear, the "synthesis" of a turban, a light shirt and denim trousers is suitable. As for the summer period, the turban goes well with light linen dresses, skirts and shorts. Shoes can also be different: from playful sandals to stylish sneakers.

    In the offseason, the combination turban hats and elegant coats. Do not forget about sheepskin coats and cropped coats. However, with a sporty puffy down jacket, a turban is unlikely to look appropriate.
