TURBANTS

Whether for winter or summer, hair turbans are fashionable and great for protecting the head from the cold or heat. If you want to get several, in this section you'll find a wide range of colors and different designs.

In summary, we offer you here two types of women's turbans: the oncology turbans and fixed turbans or structured turbans.

Oncology turbans are specifically designed for cancer patients. It is commonly known that chemotherapy treatments lead to hair loss, which is one of its most benign side effects but the sudden change in appearance can psychologically affect the patient.

Most patients prefer to cover their head when this occurs. For women, oncology turbans are the most popular option. If you're thinking about how to make a turban, don't worry about it. These turbans are designed to be easily placed on the head. You just have to adjust them to your head.

At Artipistilos, we have these products in different styles and colors. Get several so you or your loved one can alternate their use. The materials used are extremely soft and comfortable to prevent any discomfort when in contact with the scalp.

The fixed turbans, like the ones previously mentioned, are already assembled and can be put on the head like a hat. However, they are still called that because the design mimics that of a turban tightly tied around the head.

We have a wide range of structured turbans with very varied styles and colors. The same can be said about the materials, as you can find lycra turbans, wool turbans, or velvet turbans among others.

Finally, we also include in this section women's bandanas, ideal for protecting the ears from the cold and keeping hair up.

WHAT IS A TURBAN?

Turbans are a type of headwear consisting of a long piece of cloth (often exceeding 5 meters in length) that is wrapped around the head or over a hat or base. There are many types of turbans depending on the region of the planet, and they come in multiple shapes, sizes, and colors.

The turban is a garment with a long historical tradition whose use is widespread in North Africa, the Near East, Middle East, the Arabian Peninsula, and Southeast Asia.

In Islamic culture, the turban is an element deeply rooted in faith. Ancient Arabs took great pride in their turbans, and not having one was considered humiliating. On a day-to-day basis, the turban was essential to protect against the desert sand, as well as from heat and light.

India is another civilization where there are many and varied types of turbans. Often, the type of turban indicates the social position of the wearer, as in the case of peasants, who only use a towel around their heads. The Sikhs are a religious group in this region whose turban is particularly well-known.
