Did you choose casual, solid-colored chemo caps? Then you can switch up your look even more by adding a simple scarf. Loose and effortless or tied into a chic little bun — a scarf instantly adds personality and flair to your outfit. Sounds tricky? We’ll show you how to create three different styles in no time.
All you need for these three quick looks: your favorite chemo hat and a matching long, rectangular scarf. Tip: only use scarves made from non-shiny fabrics. Unlike silk or glossy satin, they won’t slip and they stay in place much better.
Style 1: Loose and Effortless
-
Wrap the scarf around your head and tie a simple knot near your left or right ear.
-
Tuck one end halfway under the knot and let the loop you create hang loosely.
-
Open up the fabric of the loop for a fuller, more voluminous look.
Style 2: A Playful Little Bun
-
Wrap the scarf around your head and tie a simple knot near one ear.
-
Take both ends and twist them tightly around themselves until you get a “rope.”
-
Let the rope curl naturally into a bun. Wrap the end around the bun and tuck it securely under the knot.
Style 3: A Chic Top Knot
-
Wrap the scarf around your head from back to front.
-
Cross both ends at the top of your forehead.
-
Bring the ends back again: the left end along the left side, the right end along the right side. This creates a beautiful volume at the front.
Tie both ends together in a double knot at the nape of your neck.
Another Option: A Sophia Cap With a Loop
Not very handy and thinking, “If I try this myself, that scarf will definitely slip off at the worst possible moment”? Then our Sophia turban style may be perfect for you. It has a small loop at the forehead where you can slide your own scarf through, helping it stay neatly in place. And it doesn’t have to be a store-bought scarf — in the video, Tine even uses the belt of a dress. So many possibilities!
Prefer zero risk and would rather have a cap with a pre-attached scarf that’s already sewn in? Then discover our pre-shaped chemo scarf Liz >>
