Anyone else tying it up (headscarves/ wraps) to their goal?!.....

[fattyfatfat]

its getting colder in NYC and im working on protecting my hair from the harsh wind and weather. for the past two days I have been wearing my pretty wrap at work and I havent heard a peep from my supervisors about it not being professional. so I know I will be ok with keeping my hair wrapped under my scarves at my main job. however at my second job, Im not able to wear my scarf . thats ok because its only for a few hours so I'll let my hair out then. by keeping my hair wrapped underneath a scarf, I really hope this will protect my ends.

I love headwraps, i usually wear them from fall to spring. I buy material at the fabric store.

Crissi!!! I haven't seen you around in a while. Your hair has grown so much.

I have learned that the only way my hair will grow in the winter is if it is wrapped. I really need fabric ideas!!! I just used a satin scarf and tie it in a bun right now

I do sometimes.
I wear wigs a lot but when I don't feel like wearing one, I'll tie a pretty satin scarf around my cornrows. I just buy the satin BSS scarves now, but might invest in some silk....like the one's that were still on sale at NY&Co when I went last week.

I wear wraps, snoods and tams most of the time. My locs can get too heavy to bun and pull on my edges so I have been wearing more snoods and tams lately.

My tams/ snoods look something like this, only longer... I had to order some off of etsy.com b/c they are hard to find.

Sweetbriers also has some pretty ones. I recently bought this one and it matches so many outfits. It also holds all of my locs without looking crazy. These are also organic and it's very good quality.
I love my snoods!

I'm glad you mentioned tams...I really like them alot and I wear them when I visit my friends and stuff. Besides some are really cute w/ your outfits! I got mine off ebay. I like subdued colors and I found some really nice blacks/greys/blues...some w/ visors (newsboy style), some w/o. I've even seen leather crowns there.

I'm with you 100%- I just don't like the visors b/c they don't flatter my face. Either way, I love them and am always on the look out for more.

There are quite a few Muslim memebers here who wear hijab. I can assure you, most of them do just this and it works! Works for me!

Those large silk scarves are the TRUTH. I love to wear these under my tams sometimes, but they work well on thier own as well.

I will be incorporating wearing headwraps into my winter haircare routine. Especially when I'm just out and about. Guess I'll be hitting up the fabric store.

[Lei*Lei]

I wore them all the time at one point...i love headwraps

I was just thinking of doing this yesterday, going until April (with a few breaks for special days like my wedding ann etc).



I usually get my fabrics at the fabric store...but there is a new store that just opened up that sells indian fabrics, so i may check them out!

I got a lot of my fabric from the fabric store as well. I did this a lot last winter and plan to do it again. It would be great if I could get into the habit of doing it every fall and winter. BF complains about it a lot but I find myself having to explain why I'm doing it. There's also times when it gets boring so I switch up and wear a phony pony and just tie the front of my hair down with a scarf. Now all of a sudden he says he likes it when I wear scarves. I was like "REALLY?" That didn't seem to be the case before. He likes being able to see some hair, even if it is my "pretend hair" as he calls it.
