Anyone who knows me knows how much I love wearing headwraps! I first started wearing headwraps about two years ago. I watched Youtube videos to learn how to create styles, and then I started going to headwrap workshops in Detroit. I loved the workshops because I was able to learn more about the art of headwrapping while connecting with other women who loved headwrapping, too!
There are so many different beautiful headwrap styles. That’s the beauty of headwraps– it’s all about expressing yourself and creating your own personal style. From easy turban styles to bow headwraps and elegant Gele headwrap styles, the possibilities are endless! You can even use a shirt or leggings to create a headwrap style! Here’s another headwrap tutorial that I love.
And let’s not forget those days when you just don’t have time to do your hair or it’s wash day. Wearing a stylish headwrap is perfect to wear as a protective style for days like this. You can cover your hair and still look fabulous, especially if you’re in a rush to get out the door!
Below you will see photographs I rounded up of my favorite headwrap styles. Some of the styles are from workshops I attended in Detroit and other styles are from images I found on Pinterest and the internet. Let me know in the comments below which headwrap style you love the most!
