Change Your Look With a Skull Bandana

A new look for bikers, off roaders and others is using a bandana to cover your face while you are riding. These really are a cool new trend and an inexpensive way to protect your face while riding. They also work great for a costume instead of a full face mask. While there are several designs available, the skull bandana is one of the most popular styles.

This bandana is made to cover your nose and mouth along with your chin and sometimes neck. They are basically a bandana that you fold diagonally. When folded properly, the bottom half of a skulls face is shown, covering your nose and down. The screen printed image can be very realistic looking, especially from a distance.

When worn as a costume, they are a great alternative to traditional masks as they leave the eyes unobstructed. They are safer for children who are out trick or treating at night because they can see their full surroundings. They are also less cumbersome than a traditional full face mask.

When worn for riding, these bandanas will protect your face from wind, dirt, and bugs. When worn with a pair of sunglasses and a helmet, the look can be very menacing. It is eye catching for those who catch a glimpse of the rider. It also masks the persons identity.

These bandanas are typically black with a white or grey screen print image of the skull. The more color variance of the skull and the better shading makes a better, more realistic image. They simply tie behind the head as any bandana would and can even be tossed into a washing machine to be cleaned. Whether you choose to wear one of these bandanas for Halloween or when you are out riding, you can be assured you will catch attention with this inexpensive accessory.
