How to tie a tie?

[jon93 0]

I have a very important FBLA competition tomorrow and need to dress very professional, The problem is I dont know how to tie a tie. I have looked all over the internet and found a couple good sites and even looked at video's but none of them really came out right. I think im looking for a Windsor knot or something professional and classy. So if anyone can help me, that would be amazing.

This worked for me...

Make sure you keep it all nice and tight with your thumb and finger...if it get loose and sloppy it is hard to recover to a nice knot.

how big of a knot is it supporse to be? Mine keeps looking huge and the thin end is longer then the thick end. AHH what the hell. this is confusing.

I'm guessing you don't have a father around to show you or something because that'd be a lot easier than trying from something online. I've been wearing a tie since age six and it's just easier showing someone rather than telling them.

I finally decided to man up and learn how to do it. My Dad doesn't even know how to do ti...Mom tied all of our ties (4 boys + Dad) when we had to dress up for something when we were kids. To this day...I have ties in my closet still tied. I undid them all and found some good websites and have a fairly decent half Windsor now....

I can't do a full windsor properly no matter what, but the good news is you

can do one of the lazier knots. Won't be a problem, just experiment inventing your own and you'll stumble across one that is right, lol.

I rock the half windsor.

There's no singular way to wear a tie. Wear a tie according to its material and the collar of the shirt you'll be wearing. Nothing looks worse than a tie with a knot too thin for the shirt and vice versa.
