Ideas for beautiful looks with scarves
A classic scarf, a bandana, or a headscarf can become a luxurious detail of your look! Let's see how you can play up this perfect accessory with your hair down, with a ponytail, with braids and in a retro style.
Scarf for loose hair
A scarf in combination with loose curls instantly evokes pleasant thoughts of long evenings, romantic meetings and hot hugs!
Of course, this is a very frivolous hairstyle that would be appropriate on a date or a walk around the city with friends.
In the form of a rim
Despite the fact that now you can find wide headbands upholstered in scarf fabric, it is better to use a real scarf or headscarf - it looks more feminine.
This headband will go well with either loose hair or an updo.
Greek style
An incredibly light and at the same time charismatic image will be created if you tie a scarf in the Greek style: the most effective in this case will be a white scarf, but no one forbids experimenting - sky blue, emerald or coral shades also look great.
In retro style
Unlike a regular scarf headband, for a retro hairstyle the scarf should be tied not under the back of the head, but directly on the top of the head: it is not necessary to hide the ends - they are also part of the image.
In the style of Brigitte Bardot
To look like a French style icon, the scarf must be tied in a peasant style - under the chin, but the fabric of the scarf must be silky, and the hairstyle must be smooth under the scarf.
An option for romantic people is to make a lush silk bow at the end of the braid!
Ponytail with scarf
The easiest way to use a scarf as a hair accessory is to attach it to the base of your ponytail.
Don't forget to securely secure your ponytail with a hair tie first: a scarf won't hold your hairstyle in place, especially if it's silk!
Gypsy version
Fashion ideas sometimes require courage. The Gypsy version is just such a case. A very bright scarf is tied like a headband, only the width of the headband should be approximately twice the standard width. It turns out very beautiful and stylish.
And don’t forget to support this detail of the look with a well-thought-out wardrobe!
Hollywood scarf
You will need not only a silk scarf of a noble shade, but also dark glasses. Only in pairs will these accessories work as they should!
Once you tie a scarf in the style of Hollywood stars, you don’t even have to get used to the new look - you will instantly feel an irresistible desire to be on the red carpet.
Ribbons and Greek hairstyles
Decorations - ribbons, didems, hairpins...
The Greek style involves braids and ribbons and flowers woven into them. You can pick up your hair in a beautifully styled bun and frame it with small braids. Decorate the composition with small hairpins with flowers. You will get an elegant scattering of flowers.
You can use almost any ribbon – you don’t have to stick to the antique style. You can even take them in different colors and thus introduce the domestic ethnic group into the Greek style.

Low styling in Greek style
This is one of the simplest and most common hairstyles, which can be seen on every third representative of the fair sex in the summer. It is performed using hairpins and an elastic band. Plus, you have two options.
Option 1 – with wrapping the strand around an elastic band
1. Comb the strands with a brush and apply any styling product (mousse, foam, wax) to them. It is advisable not to wash your hair the day before styling - clean hair will not hold, and the hairstyle will begin to fall apart.
2. Now we put on the elastic band.
3. How to do a Greek hairstyle with a headband? We twist the strands at the temples and in the front part into a bundle and pass them under the elastic band in the back of the head. We pull out the ends of the hair and lower them down.
4. We select two more identical strands and carefully wrap our headband with them in the same way. They no longer need to be twisted into a bundle.
5. Repeat this action with the remaining hair. Each strand should be passed through the elastic.
6. We twist the hair falling from under the elastic into a light rope and wrap it around the elastic as many times as the length allows. The longer the bundle, the more voluminous the bundle will be.
8. Secure the result with a couple of hairpins and fix the hairstyle with varnish.
