  1. Unfold a long scarf and place it on your head, leaving pieces out around your face to frame it. Be sure that you place the shorter end on your head. The scarf should hang long down your back.
  2. Lightly twist the two ends of the scarf together at the nape of your neck and pull the two sides down in front of you.
  3. Position the top portion in a style that you like, and pull the two ends of the scarf to tighten the top portion and hold your style.
  4. For added effect, move the knot at the nape of your neck from the middle to an asymmetrical position on your neck. This will cause the scarf to drape on one side of your neck.
  5. To increase the hold of the scarf and style, use a strong hold hairspray, like Moroccanoil Hairspray, where your hair and your scarf meet.

Through out the day, the scarf will become a bit loose, so simply tighten it by pulling on the ends, the same way you would for shoelaces. Be sure not to wear this style when it is extremely windy. It will not stay in place!MORE FROM NATURALLY CURLY: Cool Curly Hairstyles for SummerHappy styling!
