No. Batik is a wax-resist technique: hot wax is stamped or hand-drawn onto cotton, the cloth is dyed, and the waxed areas stay undyed. Tie-dye resists dye by tying or folding the fabric, so its patterns are loose and organic. Block printing presses ink onto fabric with carved wooden blocks and is most associated with India. All three are artisan crafts. Kasih Co-op specializes in authentic Indonesian batik, and our bandanas and scarves are genuine, hand-dyed batik.

We recommend washing on a delicate cycle (or by hand) with a mild detergent, then air-drying to keep the hand-dyed colors and soft cotton feel looking their best. Avoid bleach and high heat, which can affect the batik dye over time.

Soft. Our bandanas are 100% cotton, sun-dried and pre-washed during the batik process, and the pattern is dyed into the fabric rather than printed on top, so there's no stiff ink layer. They get softer with every wash. Read more in Soft Cotton Bandanas That Aren't Stiff.

Yes. Our bandanas are original Indonesian batik designs, from classical motifs like kawung and truntum to florals, butterflies and modern geometrics. Customer favorites include Black Mirage, Blue Roses, Azure Butterflies and Citrus Noir.

Every piece is designed in the US and hand-made by artisan partners across Java, Bali, Sulawesi, and Jakarta, Indonesia. We work with 18 artisan partnerships, over 80% of which are women-owned businesses, including batik fabric producers, seamstresses, quilt makers, and ikat weavers.

A little extra dye may release in the first few washes, especially in reds and blacks. That’s normal for real wax-and-dye batik, and a sign your piece isn’t printed. Wash it on its own in cold water the first few times, and dry it in the shade to keep the colors rich.

Because each piece is hand-dyed and hand-cut using traditional batik methods, you may notice slight variations in shape or size from piece to piece — it won't always be a perfectly even square. This is a natural part of the handmade process, not a flaw, and it's part of what makes every Kasih Co-op piece one-of-a-kind.

Yes — we recommend ironing on a low, cotton-safe heat setting.

Our regular 21" and 23" bandanas are sized for classic bandana styling, while the Large 39" gives you more fabric to work with — great for a neck scarf, head covering, or even a light throw. A 27" size is coming soon: the in-between size for thick, curly or long hair, or a bigger head, when you want a secure knot without the bulk of a 39".

Choose our Large 39" bandana. It covers long, thick, curly or braided hair with room to wrap and tuck, and ties comfortably on a bigger head. A 27" in-between size, for a secure knot without the bulk of a 39", is coming soon. See our bandana size chart.

A bandana is easier for quick, secure ties like headbands and ponytail wraps, and a 39" bandana covers your whole head. A long scarf (about 71" x 21") gives you more fabric to wrap, twist and drape. Both are 100% cotton, which grips and breathes better than silk for everyday wear. Read Bandana vs. Scarf for Hair.

Turn it over. Real wax-resist batik has rich color on both sides, while printed imitations are paler on the back. You may also see fine hairline crackle lines from the wax, small color variations, slightly uneven edges, and a faint natural wax scent when it's new, which are all signs of handmade batik.
