Shemaghs are some of the most-popular, and practical, head scarves in the world. While they’re commonly-worn in the Middle East, it keeps people enjoying their benefits.
Fold the shemagh into a triangle. Wrap it around the back and over the top of your head, with the folded edge across your forehead, making sure that about two-thirds of the material is on your left. The right end ought to be long enough to come to your chest.
Use your left hand to pinch the shemagh about 3 or 4 inches from the folded edge and let the edge hang forward.
Let go of the right end. Using your left hand, hold the edge of the shemagh next to your left cheek and hold it near your left cheekbone. After you do this, use your right hand to pull the left end of the shemagh across your face, over your nose.
Pull the shemagh as tight as needed to feel comfortable. At the end of the process, take both ends and, somewhere near your right temple, tie them in a knot. A square knot will secure the shemagh adequately.

Neck ScarfThey’re commonly-worn around the neck as a way to protect the chest and shoulders from the sun, but they can also help to absorb sweat. Keeping them around the neck also makes them easy to access when needed, and they can easily be slid over the nose and mouth for dust or debris protection. |
Face ProtectionYou can easily wrap it around your nose and mouth to improvise an air filter. While it may not remove super-fine particles, it’s ideal when high winds kick up a lot dust and debris, and they can also be doused with water to filter out a good amount of smoke as well. You can also use it for some basic nose and mouth protection while riding a motorcycle to avoid ingesting bugs and other small objects that may be in the air. |
CamouflageYou can wear a shemagh over your head and face to help you to blend into surroundings in a pinch. This may prove to be a fast and easy alternative to improvising something in the field, and it’s not messy like face paint, dirt or clay. You can also use it in conjunction with other camouflage techniques in order to increase their effectiveness as well. |

Warmth and InsulationYou can wrap exposed parts of the body in a shemagh to help keep them warm, and they can also be folded or stuffed in places to provide insulation. While they’re not as big as a blanket, they can be just as useful in a pinch. |
WrapImagine being in a situation where your clothing is wet or perhaps you’ve lost your pants or shorts. You can wear a shemagh like a sarong until your clothes dry or you find replacements. While not ideal, it will help you to avoid the travails of being forced to decide how to get around while wearing nothing more than your underwear. |
First AidYou can use a shemagh as a sling, bandage, wound-compressor or as the bed for a splint or improvised shelter. You can also fold and twist the material in order to create a tourniquet if you don’t have a belt available. |
