The Ghutrah or Shemagh is the cultural head-wear of most places in the middle east. It somewhat resemble a scarf and is usually made of wool or cotton. Many countries have their own style of wrapping it but usually they are placed on ones head with an "Agal" (an accessory worn usually by Arab men. It is a black cord, worn doubled, used to keep a ghutrah in place on the wearer's head.) and left to be.

The Ghutrah comes in many different colors but is usually white or red and white. (it depends on the culture)
