I go through each step slowly, making it easy for you to follow along with me. So, whether you're a complete beginner or if you've struggled before, I'm going to get you to tie a bow tie today. One you can be proud of!

Why am I able to help when you haven't been able to do it before?

Well, just a couple of months ago I couldn't tie a bow tie either. I went through the same thing as you are right now, watching video after video because I couldn't get it right. That's because most videos skip over too quickly, or completely miss out, some of the steps of tying a bow tie.

So in this video, I make sure that I cover the two critical steps where most people go wrong or give up. And you'll get a close-up view of the most critical steps.

Tying it yourself…

Important: When tying your bow tie, stand in front of a mirror - it's MUCH easier to do it this way.

Here are the 5 steps to tying a bow tie yourself:

1. Length

An important step which most videos skip.

2. The first knot

Unlike almost every other video I've seen, I'm not going to tell you to have one side lower than the other. What's more important is the placement of the first knot.

3. Getting the bow shape

This is where you'll get an idea of how your bow tie will look from the front and how wide your bow will be. If it looks too wide or narrow, go back to step one because you'll need to adjust the length.

4. [First critical step] The second knot

When I first learnt to tie a bow tie, this is the part I got stuck on. So try not to rush it.

5. [Second critical and final step] Adjustments - (Here comes the magic!)

Hopefully you haven't given up yet because this is where it all happens and yet again most videos don't cover this in enough detail. I've got you covered!
