Naruto wheres his around his head. Sakura wheres hers like a barret. Ino wheres hers as a belt. Shikimaru wheres his as a shoulder band and Hinata wheres hers as a necklace. When you don't want to follow your village customs no longer you become a missing-nin. When you are a missing-nin you scratch your headband across the insignia of your village.
