Men's Bow Ties - Easy Steps to Tie it Like a Gentleman

The stereotype concomitant with bowties is that they are used by doctors, professors and other professionals in similar respected designations and these are quite hard to tie properly, compared to the neckties. These days, you can get the prettied versions which come with elastic detachable hooks. When you wear them around your collar, the hook will go behind the collar and this is not very noticeable. However, many style experts suggest wearing the traditional bowties that should be tied up manually.

Many men assume this is quite difficult and they stay away from bows as much as possible. The truth is that these can make you look spectacular in a crowd and you will always earn more respect than others because not everyone wears them and many who wear them do not tie them properly. The prettied versions will get noticed by experienced ones and will not help you to earn the right sort of respect. Since many people are not aware of tying these properly, knowing how to tie one in the right manner is always advantageous.

These easy steps will teach you how to do the tying part professionally.

1. Step 1 - Wear it around the neck. While wearing, make sure that the right end is extended more than the left end; ideally one inch or slightly more.

2. Step 2 - Cross the right end (longer end) through the left. Make sure that you are crossing over the left end but not under it. Then, take a loop and tight it on your neck.

3. Step 3 - Pick the left end and fold it towards the right side.

4. Step 4 - Pull the right end gently to make a small opening.

5. Step 5 - Pass the right end through this opening and make sure to hold the knot firmly.

6. Step 6 - Once the knot is formed; pull both ends of the bow to make it even. Make sure that you are doing this gently to achieve an even position.

It takes some time to tie the bow perfectly but with constant practice and patience, you can achieve this goal easily. Once achieved, you will find bowties to be easy to tie like neckties. Feather Bow Ties
