- 10 Ways to Rock a Boho Bandana -

From a headband to a bracelet to a collar for your dog, bandanas are a versatile and timeless staple of every hippie’s wardrobe. Let us take you through our 10 cool ways to rock a bandana and find some inspiration to create your own endless style opportunities!

1. Hippie Headband

No need to mess with a classic! Give yourself a laid-back bohemian vibe with a classic hippie style headband. Take your favorite bandana and fold it in half so it forms a triangle. Fold the point in and continue folding until you find the desired thickness for your headband. Then, place on your forehead, knot the ends, and head out to your next festival in style!
