what kind of issues do you face?

one hint is to soak the fabric in warm salt-water overnight, then wash it the next day, before the first time you wear it... this will remove all of the starch and make it easier to tie. women's styles (round or dumalla types) are best with very soft, thin material. some of my dastaar fabric is nearly see-through.
