Hijab styles I like

23 04 2007

BBC news did a little spread of the different types of hijabs, alhamdulilaah, I found it. Check it out

Here is a website that shows you how to wrap the shayla hijab: Click here and wrap away!

This website is for the hardcore Muslim divas! Brace yourself

Some photos of hijab styles (click on the picture to enlarge it).


I found these courtesy of hijab shop. I like the fringe in the front.

ohhh, this one is nice

Here is a tucked in style I wear when I have a presentation for work or go to a conference. I think it looks elegant.

I might try this when winter rolls around again, insha’allah.

This is the Mauritanian hijab. As you can tell, they take a big piece of material and wrap it around the body and to the head. They call it a malafah. In my years of being married to a Mauritanian I’ve been unable to wrap it properly. I also trip over the fabric, lol. Sudanis also wear the same type of garment but they call it a “thob”.

I love the way Malaysian and Thai sisters wear their hijab. I tend to wear mine like this if I have on a baggy shirt or I make the hijab bigger so it covers the breast area.


I found this pic on someone’s flickr blog and thought it was absolutely beautiful, mashallah. (If this is your photo and you don’t want it on your blog, please contact me and let me know).

Stunning!


I like the way she wrapped her hijab. Hmm…how did she get it to look so neat?

I will keep adding more hijab style to this post as I find them, insha’allah

Salaam, i adore the turkish ( in a bun) hijab style, it looks gorgeous even sexy dare i say it but i guess thats more to do with the outfit aswell. I usually wear as shayla i think that looks best for my face shape.

Asalaamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu,

Shukran for the different hijab pics! I have tried so many styles but I tend to wear the shayla the most although I have recently become slightly obsessed with really large square scarves. My fave pic was the floral scarf witht the point in the front! So cute!

ma’a salaamah,

ha

ps: If you know of a site with really cute underscarves please share.

Assalamu’alaikum….

I like the last hijab style… since it is stylish but it still maintains the basic requirements of a hijab… from the front view that is… since that it covers the bodyshape of a woman… that is the most important aspect… from my point of view, the other styles of hijab in your blog is somehow no valid in terms of the real functionality of the hijab… anyways… keep up this blog :) may Allah bless you…

I love the hijab which is blue in color and the caption underneath it is that you wear it to your meetings or something.
I’ve recently started covering my head and would really like to know how to wear that style. I must have spent about two hours trying to wear it but i have no idea how!
I’d appreciate any help!

Assalamu aleykum wa rahmatullohi wa barakatuh, my dear muslim brothers and sisters. I wonder What’s the use of this blog you think??? What happened to you all? Come around muslims… Don’t you have any useful deeds to do? Hijab is not a thing to show it off as a model. Sisters shame on you. Allah is watching you… Assalamu aleykum wa rahmatullohi wa barakatuh

Abdulaziz,

Thanks for stopping by. Exactly what we need as Muslim women…more Muslim men trying to tell us how to wear hjab and what we should think. The best way to win someone over to your idea is to be condescending *please note the sarcasm here*

Salam Sisters,

If you want to know how to do the Malaysian/indonesian styles of hijab, do check out my video on youtube:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_M4BWUMiR4

I also wrote an ebook on how to do the styles, available at http://www.EasyHijabStyles.com. The styles are simple and easy to try, especially for new sisters wearing the hijab.

Omgosh, I love these ones!!
especially the girls in pink and blue.
they’re sooo cute.
But when i’m wearing my hijab it always goes out of place. I tried putting a lot of pins on but it always pulls back.

The fifth hijab is wonderful as well! :D

The picture under which you have written “stunning” is of Waris Dirie. She had great success as a model in Europe from the late ’80s onwards but is today better known for her work battling Female Genital Mutilation, which she underwent as a child in Somalia. She fled Somalia because she was to be married off to a much older man. She wrote Desert Flower and Desert Dawn, among other books, about her experiences. She does not usually wear hijab so I suspect the photo above was for a fashion shoot or publicity shot.
