    I think bandanas look really great if you fold the corners of the bandana in so they meet in the middle, then fold it flat and tie it around your head at the neck. Similarly, instead of folding it, you can roll it starting at the corners, then tie that around your ponytail.

    Bandanas are great for protecting your scalp from the sun and wind, and they can also provide a soft cushion between the biker’s head and their helmet. Plus, many bikers just like the way they look!

    For a rockstar look, try folding up your bandana and tying it around your head with the knot to one side. You can also wear it knotted around your neck or wrist. A basic trifold or pirate fold will also work well if you want to cover your hair or scalp.

    Fold it into a triangle and roll it up casually. Then put it around your neck and tie it in a knot or just pin it together. If you are going for a 60's look then move the bandana around your neck so that the knot is at the side.

    You should first try to get all the hair you can under the bandana and then tie it. You could also probably add some hair spray, or wet your hair before so it is less frizzy. Then, if you need, you could add bobby pins to help keep the bandana more secure.

    I find it easiest to pin the bandana down with bobby pins, so it doesn't move around while walking, etc.
