Black velvet fabric has a great four way stretch. This pattern has a light blue color mixed with silver. It has a great oval shape over circles. Machine wash/drip dry.

One size fits all? I don't think so!   People's heads come in all kinds of great shapes and sizes. Some heads are round or oval then comes sizes large, small and medium Not to leave out the great brained people with the extra-large heads.    Next sizing issue to take into consideration is hair. You have the frizz mass, the lanky thin hair and then the no hair all.    All these different situations mean that one size fits all is just a headwear myth. One size fits most is more correct. Here at MillineryShop offer you options.    MillineryShop.net you can customize your pre-tied bandana that fits you. Choose from our sizing choices of small, average fit,  and Extra-large. You can even add a slip grip to it to further customize your selection.   We even have had requests from Europe to please make longer Snoods. So we listened and now you can customize and choose a longer length.   Our Chenille crochet have an adjustable toggle piece to make the Chenille tighter or loser. A new concept to the Chenille line.   If you need something special just ask us. We love making our customers happy and customizing something for you is our pleasure.    

Well let me tell you a well kept secret... MANY ladies in the United States, wear wigs.    For many reasons ladies wear wigs.....  It can be for a bad hair day, color swap, balding, health, religion you name it. The best kept secret is what helps one to wear a wig comfortably. How does one keep a wig in place? Well, we can help fill in the blanks.    Our item called the WIG GRIP have really caught on. MANY ladies have bought the wig grips and around 6 months later I see that they will purchase another. I definitely see proof that by wearing the wig grip, their wigs really stay in place snugly. Read what our fans say about the wig grips... I love to hear feed back.   NOW I would like to let you know about another great item that is worn under the wig. Another secret we are sharing with you.   Our HEAD LINER Cap is special because ...... Its a wig grip built onto a cotton cap with an adjustable velcro. If you can't stand the feel of the wig directly on you head BINGO .. you will like this. It will fit most heads and you also have a few colors to choose from.   The HEAD LINER CAP: How to wear the head liner.... IF you have long hair then put your hair in a pony holder. Open the velcro in the back and slid the head liner cap onto your head. The wig grip band should be placed on your hair line. Close the velcro ends to your comfort. The HEAD LINER cap will stay in place all day. Some ladies have told us that they will sleep in it as well. The top of the cap is a soft comfortable cotton fabric. 

The scarf features puzzle pieces with a delicate chain encircling each one, adding a tactile dimension to the design. The chains are intricately crafted with tiny links.  

BRRR....IT'S REALLY COLD OUT THERE   What can you wear to keep warm?   Well I can suggest a good old snood. Wear a soft velour winter fabric snood.

SLIP BANDS - WOW! What loaded words . At MillineryShop.net we have sold over 200 slip bands in two days with one of these daily Groupon style deals. We have had so many questions comparing one slip band verses the cotton version of the slip band - it's not that one band style is better then the other!!!!    It is different based on ones needs. For some women who are sensitive to different fabrics and they can only tolerate cotton on their skin, or perhaps a women who lives is California and its quite hot in climate- they would appreciate a cooler version made with a cotton side to be worn on their heads. The  summer version of the slip not is then a cooler version - simply because it's only 1/2 velvet as apposed to a two sided velvet band.   Another great feature is that we are able to offer this in THREE popular colors: Black, Chocolate Brown, and Champaign. And let's take it a step further- is every women's head the same size? LOL no way!! Even though the slip bands come with a  velcro back closure a good fit is a sure fit!! So we offer the bands in FOUR different sizes.   Small, Medium, Large. and  Extra Large.   By offering different styles, Colors, and sizes in the slip band -many women can enjoy it's quality of keeping their headwear on!   Slip Not Bands Link  

Now that it's finally summer, I took a quick jaunt to the beach with my three kids. I had just finished readjusting my pretied bandana and was helping my three-year-old dig up her small neon-green Croc from the sand when I almost FLIPPED OUT!   About three feet away from me stood another religious lady at the beach in – I kid you not – a Shaitel. Yes! She apparently put on her fine, custom, $3,500 + wig to go to the beach?! Oxidize much?!   “You have got to be kidding me!” was my first reaction.   Then my not highly conditioned enough reflex of “different strokes for different folks” kicked in. I glanced again at the lady, pulled the two ends of my kerchief out of habit, glanced at the wig wearing lady again, and then stared out to sea, deliberately keeping my “new friend” and her Shaitel out of sight…. trying to behave…   Someone tapped me and I jumped! “Sorry!” I heard a timid voice break through my grumping. “I didn't mean to scare you. I just wanted to know where you got that pre-tied. Sorry!”   I lifted me kerchief-clad head and stared at – you guessed it – my wig clad “neighbor,” I restructured my grimace into a lopsided grin, clumsily got to my feet and stuttered, “Ooohhh! T- Th- That's okay! It-it-it's no pro-prob-problem. Reeeaally!   I quickly studied her appearance and came to three conclusions: She cared how she dressed, she knew how to dress, and she always looked great – from the sole of her shoe to the top of her hat – well shaitel!   “So, anyway, where did you get that pre-tied?” she prompted.   “I go to www.MillineryShop.net. See, I would never even think of going to the beach in a Shaitel, even if it was a cheaper one. It would get completely killed, besides that it's so uncomfortable… and.. oh! Yeah! This Millinery Shop is really great they like sell everything you need in the way of head-coverings, like everything. They've even got Shawls and Costume Jewlery. They have pre-tieds, bandannas, hair clips, kerchiefs, snoods, tichels… um mitpachot turbans and even hair clips and jelly bands… I mean they have everything! Um..” I was babbling and I knew it.    “They've go it all. Seriously! Check them out… they have something for every taste and need. They're even well-priced.”   “What's the name of the place again?” she asked. And I proceeded to give her the information. We talked for a few minutes more and then she turned and walked away, her wig winking in the sunlight. It's funny! Now it looked a drop more blondish, before I had been positive it was brown. “I guess my imaginations running wild again,” I mused as I reached up to pull the two ends of my pretied again… out of habit.  

      We aim to please. You asked we answered.     Our wig grips have been flying off our shelves like Bubby's cheesecake on shavous. Some of our customers have mentioned to us that over the summer they don't wear their shietel as much as during the year. They  feel they are overdressed using a wig grip . When it is 90 degrees and it feels like 120 degrees, and your air condition went on vacation, every extra layer just hurts!    Based on this exact situation we designed the strip grip.   What is a Strip Grip? A strip grip is a 3/4”-1"  piece of velvet that is sewn into the band of the head covering of your choice. It is designed to eliminate the slipping and sliding that usually occurs. That's why we call it the SLIP GRIP! It is smooth, comfortable and not sweaty. It is completely invisible from the outside and so very comfortable.       This add on option is available on most of our pretied bandanas. The introductory price is just $3 this price will increase after shavous. Take advantage of the special introductory pricing.   Real story: I was given a pretied with a strip grip before I wrote this article. It is embarrassing how often I wear it. It is by far my most comfortable piece I own. I never have to readjust pull down and pull – you know exactly what I mean…      

LICE! If my daughter brings home just one more note from the CDC I will freak! Since winter break we have been receiving these notes home explaining what Pediculus humanus capitis -AKA- headlice is and how to get rid of them. The teachers have called all the parents asking to put the girls hair in braids or buns. That's a great first step but it leaves many still exposed from those itchy jumpy insects.   I have sent my daughter to school in these awesome kids pre-tied. She feels totally hip and I feel totally safe. Just typing this article has me itching! I am so glad I don't have to deal with the real deal:)    Ladies keep in mind the article we posted in the summer about lice in head coverings.          

WHAT THE HECK IS AN ANGLE SWEATER?!     Well who wears pullover sweaters?  It seems to me that the feminine world of fashion wears sweaters without zippers, buttons or snaps. I find that when I'm getting dressed up, to go out - I apply my make-up first, while wearing a pretied bandanna.  Then when I'm all dolled up and ready to leave, I can easily put on my ANGLE SWEATER.  The angle seater goes over my pretied bandana or any head covering (Sombrero excluded!). I can pop on my funky hat or wig (with a slip not - wig grip underneath of course) as a head covering and I am good to go.   Below is an Angle sweater that has a bit of a cowl neck for easy on and off. This knit sweater is sometimes called a PONCHO. It is warm, cozy and dressy too. I love how the sweater just drapes beautifully on a dramatic angle with a point worn in the front.  My favorite is the most practical color- LOL yes, BLACK. The most forgiving color in a girls closet.

OVERSIZED PRE-TIED HEADWEAR   Are you looking for comfort in your headwear collection? Ahhh....there is nothing like comfort for me. I love the feeling of lightweight, non constricting headcoverings. When I went shopping for this seasons headwear I fell in love with this choice fabric. The fabric has a touch of shimmer ( little touch of glam) and the fabric itself is non slippery and washes amazing. The cut of this pattern (style) is a large oversized pattern. Oversized Pre-Tied Metallic fabric comes in 3 great colors:   Black / Turquoise Black / Gold Black / Silver   ANOTHER thing I like about this pattern is that when you slip on the Pre-tied you can tie the tails to your comfort with ease. The long tails make it much easier to tie. Washing instructions: Machine wash drip dry  

I have to share my excitement with you,my  friends on Millineryshop.net  frum diva blog.   I recently went shopping for new fabric. It was time to add some new prints to the site. I just love picking and choosing fabric. A lot of planning goes into which fabric to get. Print, color, texture, quality, washing care, etc.   I found a fantastic cotton print available in two colors pink and grey.   It is cotton which is great by itself but also because it has a shiny sheen (non-slip) with the in style look of slub woven into the thread weave of the fabric. It has a linen appearance- knobbly effect.   Close up of the fabric     Also check out the Wildlife  prints:       This fabric is a lycra (stretchy ,silky feel). A real fun print with many colors. Pretied Bandana- Blue Wildlife Pretied Bandana-Multi Color Wildlife   Don't forget you can customize your Pretied bandana by size or by adding our famous strip grip.   And remember the more you buy the more you save. GO WHOLESALE !!!   

                 This is not your grandmothers turban! This headband has a twisted knot on the top. We make our headband turbans two tone color for fun. In the past headbands were worn under your hair at the base of your neck. We are seeing more and more of our trendy customers wearing the band on top of their hair. You can see a complete circle of the band.       Going out in this humid heat can be unbearable, however I find that when I wear this headband I am able to handle the heat. The headband kept my hair away from my face and I could actually feel a  breeze. The Turban Twist bands come in many colors – so match away and color coordinate to your clothes.           NOTE TO ALL MOMS! Don't embarrass your kids!  To all mom's going to visit your kids in camp make sure that on visiting day you dress up todate and trendy. Don't have your kids wish you dressed like someone else's mother!! Wear a headband with style and be the mom dressed with the times! Try our accessories to make that outfit a smashing piece.  

DARE TO THINK SPRING??????   WE HAVE TONS OF SNOW - and there is not much we can do about it. So.... I will put my mind to warmer thoughts and just get ready for warmer days.    Many ladies are now wearing soft fabric headbands. Accessories worn over, wig or hair are a real trent for Spring 2018. I would like to introduce to  you the ELASTIC STRETCH BAND. The Width of the band is "4 1/4. - When you wear the band you can scrunch up the fabric for that smaller width. Another clever idea is that you can wear the band 2 ways. Either the narrow part in the front or the opposite side and the wider end in the front.    Color options are really strong for this product. We have 8 stong colors that will match your clothes.      Pack a few colors for your WINTER getaway.      WASHES WELL WILL FIT MOST HEAD SIZES.  

  Another new item... Head liner.       This cotton HEAD LINER is so comfortable, I'm thrilled to introduce this item to you. Its actually two items built into one making this HEAD LINER a clever head piece. The edge of the head liner is connected with  our best seller the Slip-Not Head grip. (In case ytou forgot what ourstrip grip is - you can read about it here It's a  double sided crushed velvet band  that will stick like glue to you, yet extremely comfortable to wear. The ends of the velvet band have velcro so that you can close it to your comfort.   Some ladies will wear this HEAD LINER  under wigs, caps, pretied bandanas or any other headcovering. Either for warmth or health reasons. I have been told that it's a great sleeping cap. For ladies that are experiencing hair loss, wear it to sleep and don't worry about waking up to lose hairs all over the pillow case.  

Is your child dressing up as a Mommy or a Bubby for Purim this year? If so this is the perfect accessory to complete their costume. No more old tichel drooping over the eyes (SAFETY HAZARD!)and constantly needing to be readjusted.  After Purim is over this kids pretied bandana becomes the ultimate add on to the dress up wardrobe.      I recently saw the cutest boys shul play set. Complete with tallis and tefillin. Seeing my daughter left out of the play fest, my first thought was what can I make for her to complete this play package? The idea was born. The kids Pretied for dress up professionals. The perfect fit. Comfortable.  Comes in many colors and designs.

Can you believe it?! School is almost out and summer is here. This crazy winter is behind us and the fun is about to begin. As a very active person I try to do all kinds of cool things in the summer and it brings to mind a great topic.   How do you cover your hair?   Beach in a shaitel? I dont think so – at least not me! Ever lose your wig – or almost in hershey park. Been there. Done that. Not fun. so here are my top recomendations, feel free to chime in and give me yours:)     This is a great one with my tan clothing, dress it up dress it down it's all good.    

At the YTT expo located in Lakewood, New Jersey. Many apparel vendors were there showing their new merchandise. It was really amazing to see so many businesses flourishing. I saw something else that deserves a lot of our attention. Cheap imports. Some clothing retailers began importing items such as from Asia. Aside from being politically incorrect, the merchandise is far inferior. Some stores have purchased this merchandise looking to gain a larger margin of profit (at your expense) others are offering it at steeply discounted prices. It may seem appealing to pay almost half the price you would normally pay. Buyer beware! This product will not hold up to normal wear and tear. It is not cut for optimal comfort and endurance. I have taken the time to put together this quality tutorial for all consumers. Current MillineryShop.net customers and future customers.   Inside view of comfort stretch stitch   Elastic sewn on the inside of the bandana Black & white colors show for contrast on the outside comfort stitch. Finished edge on all our products  

Black lycra has a Gucci style link of diamonds studs. Very dressy and fun to wear. Washes great just drip dry. Enjoy the comfort of Millineryshop.net stretch stitch pretied bandanna.

To all our new and devoted customers- I would like to go over and  explain some of our products in the section called "hats and head coverings"   We will be understanding what the differences is -between the Tichel kerchief and Oversized pretieds. These two categories can be found in the shop by department - hats and head coverings  Tichel - Kerchief   What is a Tichel? Sometimes called a Kerchief as well.    A Tichel is a square scarf that  we  fold and make into a head scaf. I would say that your Bubby -most likely wore this style head covering in Europe, in the Shtetl. All married Jewish ladies covered their hair out of modesty and a sign that she is married. Fabric and texture have come a long way  in the Tichel world. We no longer tie the kerchief under our chin in the front. The Tichel is pretied with our soft elastic in the back. We offer sizes on the elastic so there is no need to tie. Another novelty is the Strip grip that is built into the front inner side to help keep your head wear from sliding around   Oversized pretieds   Now lets talk about the Oversized pretieds. This section  is different because its not a square scarf that we work with. We buy fabric on a roll and we cut the fabric into  headwear. The end results is pretty similar to the Tichel kerchief.  This too has a built in elastic for a pretied look. Some woman like the fabric feel and texture  better then a Tichel or vis versa. The strip grip  in also built into the Oversized pretieds     Both itmes - Tichel kerchief and the oversized pretied have options to build in a strip grip -This edge inner keeps your headwear from slipping and sliding.   What is a Strip Grip? A strip grip is a 3/4”-1"  piece of velvet that is sewn into the band of head covering of your choice. It is designed to eliminate the slipping and sliding that usually occurs. That’s why we call it the SLIP GRIP! It is smooth, comfortable and not sweaty. It is completely invisible from the outside and so very comfortable.   Click here to have a look at Tichel - kerchief , Oversized pretied

Hair is good on heads… not so good in food!   If you think you've always got your hair covered, take this survey:   How often do you, your husband, or one of your kids find hair in their food? Or better yet, a guest??!! Hmm… appetizing!   If you can answer less than once a month (of the hairs you know about), you're better off than me and better off than most. Congratulations! But still…   You love entertaining and finally got your Great Aunt Judy over with Uncle Marv, kids and new grandchild – an obvious first dressed in pressed corduroys, a sky blue polo, with a backwards Yankee cap forcing down a heedful of curls, framing a cherubic face.   Your garlic bread went over great – no less than six compliments scored. The salmon entree was “plain luscious” as cousin Leah put it and you were just ladling out the cream of potato soup, thinking about the condiment presentation you had put together.   Twelve soup bowls safely to the table, and you can relax. You lift your spoon, sniff the contents of the bowl appreciatively and open your mouth in anticipation… whoa! What's that long, thin, brown thing overlapping the edges of the spoon? It's certainly not a potato! You furtively glance around, hoping no one noticed what just happened, when you notice Uncle Marv inspecting something on his spoon… EMBARRASSING!   And that's the facts! You can't even point fingers to your teenaged daughter ‘cuz you got none, or to your older sons, ‘cuz their hair is too short.   Again I ask – think you got your hair covered? Then again, you might if you've checked out our special food prep headgear of pre-tieds that actually STAY IN PLACE. Here at millineryshop.net we believe that hair, all your hair, belongs on your head.   Whether it's your hair, or shaitel hair, no one wants it in their food. Don't just blame it on the wig – no one really cares especially when it only gets washed once in six weeks (if you're conscientious!). Get yourself a good, strong, tight pre-tied bandanna that's easy to put on and comfortable to wear and keep you hair where it belongs… oh! And also fully enjoy your hair-free cream of potato soup and entertaining your guests without those embarrassing moments.  

For many of us the decision to cover ones hair (or head) is a very difficult one. We agonize over what kind of comments we will receive from our friends, family and colleagues. Well we are here to help you pull it off! with advice and know how of years of experience.   If it's your style – you can begin with a funky pretied bandana it is comfortable and so easy to wear. The last thing you need is to be uncomfortable physically as well as mentally. My next choice if funky is just not you is a small hat- not the kind you see people wearing Sunday morning!! but a neat, stylish, non-fussy hat.   After you make your choice-whatever your choice is you need only one more thing. CONFIDENCE!! Honestly, if you think you look great chances are others will too. So turn it on!!     Wishing you much Luck,   Millinery Shop
