Got a new headwrap tutorial posted today, did this wrap a few weeks ago and finally got some time to edit the tutorial.
I hope you like it and let me know what you think!
I actually made a couple wrap tutotrials before this one, if you’d like to check those out too that’d be amazing!
I started wrapping back in May, it’s been lots of fun learning to work with all my beautiful scarves, and actually get to use them for more than just a nursing cover.
I had a couple questions from people over the summer.
1st, aren’t I hot with my headwrapped in summer?
the answer: yes! Especially if I use a shaper or velvet non-slip headband or use a heavier fabric scarf like a pashmina. BUT, if I wear a light weight cotton scarf and do a wrap style that’s simple, not too tight, and covers my neck I actually get more airflow under the scarf and it keeps me cooler than I would be without the headscarf!
2nd question, Why am I wrapping?
simple answer: I like it. Its another creative outlet where I can be an artist and have success in it. But it can also be practical for when Im doing projects and want my hair to stay clean.
I don’t have any kind of religious conviction about headcoverings, at least not at this time. Im very familiar with the bibles teachings on coverings and I still lack a conviction as I don’t believe it actually says we are commanded in Torah to wear them, but I don’t see it as sinful to wear them either. I might do a separate post talking more about my own thoughts and perspective based on my research later.
I love that I can choose different styles to wrap to suit my mood and what my needs are for the day. Ive gotten quite good at wrapping without a shaper or non-slip headband. I can also wrap in a way that gives me a crown, and I love how it makes me feel just a little bit extra.
if you have some questions about headwrapping/hairwrapping/coverings you’d like to discuss please let me know! I’d love to share more and have some good discussions!
