Event Details

Fold, place, whip around, tuck, pull and pin! Headwraps are a beautiful way to accessorize, protect your hair and show a bit of style. Participants learn to tie their own headwraps as well as the unique history of wrapping across the globe. Bring a piece of cloth or use one of ours and by the end of our time together, you will be able to create a piece of art! Experience the colorful, spiritual and global practice of head wrapping, an art enjoyed by peoples of all backgrounds, ethnicities and continents.
