what's up people aid mubarak to you all um this is a really quick short tutorial video because i've been asked a bunch from you guys about how to tie one of these headscarfs this is the shamach or imama depends where you are in the middle east or where you are in the world and what they call it so really simple you can tell i've had one on for most of the day i went for either so my hair is settled down but what you need is you need one of these okay you can go to any kind of like uh middle eastern kind of shop uh islamic shop wherever you can buy it from like the army stores as well now i've just got a plain white one now what you do is it will come in a square shape you need to turn it into a triangle first like this what i've done here just line up the two edges put them together once you've done that what you do is you fold in slightly here and this was all ironed and everything but what i've done is i've kind of folded it in like that okay now what that does is it acts like a base that will sit on your head and then you basically wrap around there now there's various styles of doing it and this i learnt in russell came in the uae and various areas like in abu dhabi they have a different style and russell camera they have different styles all these different places will have different styles and it gets easier um based on the amount of times that you do i do it practically you know almost like daily now so i i can put it on uh easier but it's still a bit of a challenge so be patient so what you need to do once you've done that once you put it in a triangle shape once you've moved it up move the second part up i would move like maybe maybe a hand more than a hand kind of thing just fold it over okay put that on top of your head like this and use the mirror to line it up and because we've got no like skull cap underneath you've got to kind of push down your hair or whatever to one side so the thing is is the the style of the emirati style is it's very close to the eyebrows so you do this okay move one side across like that and what you want to start doing is you want to start folding this and what you do is you fold it in this format so what you should end up with are like like a square shape there once you do that i'm gonna use a mirror move it down like this turn it around like that and you simply wrap and just put it into one of the corners over here now you can see it's a bit sort of puffy at the top so what you do is the loose end over here just gently pull that down so that it kind of contours around your head now this side over here this is kind of like my style um and somebody showed me this in russell came and this style over here what you do is you pull this now from the back to the front and you start doing the fold here as well now because this is the side that everybody will see you've got to kind of make sure that this fold is a bit more neater i just prefer to have it that way like i said in abu dhabi they're not so obsessed about getting it as neat now what i do look at the back over here if you do it like this you're going to end up with this side which how does that look that's a bit messy for my liking but you can do it that way but what i do is i fold it up like this and then i kind of have another fold at the back perhaps tuck that in over there and then i bring this round to the front over here okay and then with this end over here you just tuck it in to that side over there now i like this style because one end is kind of like this covering the ear and then this side looks kind of rolled up just a bit more easy if you want to talk on the phone like it's not covered up ear wise so that's it it's as simple as that and then this is what you should end up with if you want to knead it up just pull that slightly you can see that they're tucked in from the side you can put that to one side you can let it hang at the back that's how you tie a chamach based on the rasa krema style the emirati style with a slight em quan twist i hope that helps and leave a comment down below and share this with other people because a bunch of people who want to tie this for eid other special days this is how you do it nice and simple and easy
