Four Alternative Ways to Wear your Head Scarves

Head scarves are the must have summer accessory but there is no reason to limit your fashion choices this season. Here are four ways to wear this summer’s hottest accessory.

Head scarves-As the temperature rises it is time to dig out your summer accessories. The primary use for head scarves is to use them as hair accessories. Nicole Richie is a huge fan of head scarves and pairs her patterned scarves with tinted sunglasses. The cute head scarf trend is back and has been making its way down the catwalks. There are many different ways to wear your head scarf this summer from the traditional way to twisting it into a head band.

Belt-Get creative with your head scarves and turn them in to make shift belts. Sharon stone and fashion icon Kate Moss have all sported this trend. From hair line to hip line, head scarves can make unique and stylish belts. Thread a thin head scarf through your belt loops or wrap chunky ones loosely around the waist.

Bag Charms-Bag charms were cool a few years ago and tying head scarves to your bags is giving this old trend a modern twist. If your old bags are looking a little dated, bring them beck in to the present with stunning head scarves.

An alternative to jewellery-If you are bored of your jewellery, why not ring the changes and adorn your neck or wrists with head scarves. You can knot them or let them hang loose like a more traditional scarf.

Head Scarves-Protect your Hair this Summer

You wouldn’t dream of spending a day in the sun without protecting your skin so why do we not treat our hair with the same respect? If you have colour treated or highlighted hair you will need to find a fail safe method to protect your hair. The sun’s rays can play havoc with your hair colour and head scarves are the perfect way to protect your tresses.

If you have had pre holiday highlights or a new colour the last thing you want to do is sit in direct sunlight for a long period of time. The sun can lighten your hair and as a result can alter your colour. One way to prevent this is to physically cover your hair with a head scarf. There are a number of colours and designs to choose from whether you desire a discreet or dramatic one. Why not choose head scarves that compliment or contrast your swimwear.

Head scarves are both pretty and practical and ensure you look good while protecting your hair colour. However, it is not only the colour that needs protection for the sun. A week’s holiday in the sun can leave your hair feeling dry and frazzled. It doesn’t have to be that way, use an intensive conditioning treatment and secure with a hair tie. Cover with a head scarf and restore the softness and shine.

If you are looking to purchase an array of head scarves for your holidays go online to peruse a varied collection.

Head Scarves-Multifunctional Fashion

Whether you like a glamorous or a laid back beach look head scarves are one of the most versatile items of beachwear around. The best fashion accessories have multiple uses and the head scarf scores high in this category. The humble head scarf can not only ensure you look your best but can protect your head from the sun while keeping unruly tresses under control.

Head Scarves-Be a Natural Beauty

Your hair has a lot of obstacles to overcome in order to stay shiny and soft during your beach getaway. The sun, the swimming pool and the sea can all have a negative affect on your hair. If you have damaged hair as a result of any of these factors or simply want to protect it from further damage, use your headscarves as a protective barrier. Just as it is best to apply skin protection prior to going out in to the sun the same should be done for your hair. The best things you can do to limit damage to your hair is to limit your contact with sea salt, chlorine and other chemicals that are found in hotel swimming pools. If you do come in to contact with these substances rinse your hair immediately and cover with headscarves.

If the damage is already done there are a number of things you can do to reverse the negative effects. Wash out the chemicals and use a conditioning treatment to replenish your hair with the moisture it has lost. Try to keep it natural; frying your already dry hair with curling tongs and straitening irons is a bit no no. Simply don brightly coloured head scarves and go for a look that is au natural.

The Culture of Head Scarves

Head scarves are one of the most commonly worn clothing items in the world and they have been for hundreds of years. They have been worn for a number of reasons so here is a bit more information about those reasons and why they are still worn today.

Culture
It is for cultural reasons that many women have worn head scarves in the past and it is why many still do today. In medieval Europe married women wore a head scarf to distinguish them from single women, but the biggest cultural reason for head scarves has been religion. Orthodox Jewish women dress in head scarves and they are requisite items of Muslim garb, again for women only. Islam demands that women dress modestly and this includes covering up their heads which is usually done with head scarves, though some Muslim women wear full burkas. For women following such religions head scarves are incredibly important items that reflect their beliefs and life.

Fashion
Fashion is perhaps the next biggest reason that people wear head scarves. It may lack the doctrinal depth of the cultural reasons but sometimes people just want to look good and head scarves are a way to do that. The classic image of a 1950s Hollywood starlet sat in a convertible wouldn’t be complete without a head scarf and some people still go for this glamorous look. Others like the pirate look that can be achieved with a boho style head scarf. The pirate look has been big for a couple of years now and doesn’t seem to be going anywhere.

Head Scarves for the Pirate Look

The pirate look has been in fashion for a couple of years now and to really achieve it head scarves are an absolute necessity. Vivienne Westwood’s famous Pirate collection helped this trend hugely and numerous copycat designers such as Gwen Stefani have also launched swashbuckling clothes collections. The popularity of pirates was also cemented when Johnny Depp strode onto the silver screen as Captain Jack Sparrow; since then the world has been pirate-crazy. Fashion-wise this has involved large boots, loose shirts, over the top jewellery, loads of skulls and head scarves. The look is still very much en vogue so if you want to achieve it, a couple of stylish, bohemian head scarves would really help.

Head scarves have been around since early human civilisation and they have maintained popularity throughout time. This is due to different reasons, as some people have worn them as a sign of social status, others out of religious compliance, others for practical reasons and others for fashion. In the west fashion is one of the main reasons that head scarves are worn but around the world there still remain many other reasons that people buy head scarves.

The Different Reasons People Wear Head Scarves

As mentioned reasons that people wear head scarves range from religious to fashion-related; here is a bit more information about what inspires different people to wear head scarves:

• Warmth – very simply some people wear head scarves to keep them warm. It is common knowledge that a lot of body heat can be lost through the head and many women, particularly in Eastern Europe and Russia have worn head scarves to combat the bitter cold.
• Social status – married women in medieval Europe wore head scarves also known as wimples in England.
• Religion – in the East head scarves have been worn for hundreds of years to distinguish women as belonging to particular religions, such as Judaism or Islam. Muslim women are required by their religion to dress modestly and are therefore required to keep their head covered, usually with head scarves.
• To hide baldness – as with warmth this is a simple reason that women have worn head scarves.
• Fashion – among unreligious types fashion is one of the biggest reasons that people wear head scarves, and the recent trend for pirate-esque fashion makes their appeal even greater.
