For the head, a bandage may be circular, or spiral, or both; in the
latter case, commence by placing one circular turn just over the ears;
then bring down from left to right, and round the head again, so as to
alternate a spiral with a circular turn. Use, to retain dressings on
the head or over the eye; but this form soon gets slack. The circular
bandage is the best, crossing it over both eyes.
