bandanas
Tied fabric headwear
Bandanas are large, usually square pieces of cloth worn as head coverings, face masks, or neck accessories.
Traditionally printed with paisley or geometric patterns, they serve practical purposes—absorbing sweat, filtering dust, or holding back hair—and cultural ones, signaling gang affiliation, political solidarity, or personal style.
