Snood scarf - what is it?
This accessory appeared in Britain back in the forties, but then it was worn not as a scarf, but as a bandana tied on the head. It served as a headdress for hair, which was removed from the face with the help of a snood, for example, when working or preparing food. Then, for some time, this fashion accessory was undeservedly forgotten and returned to use only in the 21st century. But he returned in a transformed form, and became a scarf, but despite this, he was guaranteed universal recognition. In this case, the role was played by the desire to look good, noting that if earlier it was worn more for beauty, then in our time it serves as protection from the cold in winter. Modern girls are experimenting with this accessory in every possible way, wearing it as a headband, or as a scarf, or using it at the same time as a hood combined with a scarf.
Which snood goes with fur coats?
For fur products, you should choose a voluminous knitted snood scarf. If the fur coat is made of fox, arctic fox or silver fox, then the scarf should be wide and voluminous. Short collars go well with mouton or mink. That is, the longer the fur, the longer the accessory should be.

There are as many options for wearing a scarf as there are people who want to wear one. This is also its advantage: it is possible not only to choose, but also to create your own unique version. But there are several basic ways. So let's look at them.
Method number 1.
The easiest way to wear a snood is without any loops or knots. We just put the accessory on the neck, do not wrap or tie it. We will achieve a visual lengthening of the neck and silhouette. Manages to create a laconic and simple image.
Method number 2.
Throw a scarf-collar over one shoulder, and then, making a loop, put it on the other. This feminine look will add sophistication to your look, especially if your scarf is a large knit. Please note that this look is suitable for a fitted top, jumper or long-sleeve dress, but is completely contraindicated for a jacket or jacket.
Method number 3.

A combination of a pair of different scarves (by texture or contrasting color) will look unusual and original.
Method number 4.
It's no secret that a snood can often replace both a hat and a hood - and this is another great advantage of it. Moreover, a snood (by the way, once in the role of a headdress, it becomes a hood) is much more convenient than hats, for many reasons, and one of the main ones is that it does not fit so tightly to the head and does not spoil the hairstyle or styling. In this case, we will answer the question of how to wear a snood on your head, turning it into a hood. The method is the simplest: we make two loops, climb into them and straighten the top one and throw it over the back of the head. Although if your scarf is not very long, and the temperature outside the window is not below zero, then you can simply hang it on your head, as if leaving one loop in free fall.
