How to Wear Hijab

Hijab Style 1:

	Step 1. Place a pashmina over your head with one side longer than the other, as seen in the picture.
	Step 2. Fold back the scarf behind the nape/neck so the two edges meet together.
	Step 3. Using a safety pin, pin the two edges together behind the back of the neck.
	Step 4. This picture shows the front view of step 3. When pinning behind the neck, make sure the front of the scarf has a smooth finish and is a comfortable fit.
	Step 5. Take the longer end of the scarf and start to bring round under the chin.
	Step 6. Continue to take the scarf up round to the other side. You may have to adjust the rest of the scarf around the shoulders a little so that it wraps round smoothly.
	Step 7. Here is a side view of step 6. This will help understand step 7 more clearly.
	Step 8. This picture shows how the scarf has been brought round to the opposite side.
	Step 9. Adjust the scarf so it falls evenly around your shoulders, you may also have to finger comb the the scarf at the forehead so no creases show on the front part of the scarf. Once everything is to your satisfaction, pin the top scarf to the part around the neck.
	Step 10. Front view of step 9. Once the scarf has been pinned, you can adjust the scarf a little more until you're happy with the way it looks.

Hijab Style 2:

This second style starts off the same as style 1, the difference being that this style offers a smoother continous finish at the front with the end of the hijab pinned at the back of the head.

	Step 1. Place a pashmina over your head with one side longer than the other, as seen in the picture.
	Step 2. Fold back the scarf behind the nape/neck so the two edges meet together.
	Step 3. Using a safety pin, pin the two edges together behind the back of the neck.
	Step 4. This picture shows the front view of step 3. When pinning behind the neck, make sure the front of the scarf has a smooth finish and is a comfortable fit.
	Step 5. Take about 20cm from the longer end of the scarf and start to bring it up towards the top of the head, near the center.
	Step 6. Using a pin, secure the edge of the hijab to the top of the head. Make sure it is pinned in the center of the head or slightly over to the other side. This ensures the ends can't be seen when style is completed. Another point to note, for slippery fabrics such as chiffon and georgette, pin well over past the centre and over to the other side of the head, this will ensure the hijab stays firmly in place as arranged.
	Step 7. Pick up the hjab from where it was pinned in step 6. Start to bring the scarf back down towards the chin.
	Step 8. Continue to bring the scarf round under the chin.....
	Step 9. .....and to the other side.
	Step 10. Continue to bring up and over the head toward where the scarf was pinned in step 6.
	Step 11. Pin the edge of the scarf just over where it was pinned in step 6. Alternatively, the pin can be taken out and both edges pinned together. Ensure the bottom edge stays under and is covered by the top layer.
	Step 12. This shows how the hijab looks at the back.
	Step 13. Take the scarf along the fold on the left hand side and pull it forward to the right side. This is why it was mentioned in step 6 that slippery scarves should be pinned past the center otherwise this fold will keep falling back.
	Step 14. Final step, now take the right side of the hijab and bring it up and over the bottom layer.
	Step 15. You can adjust the scarf at the front and back a little more until you're happy with the way it looks.

Mona Hijab:

The mona hijab is a relatively new design which is currently only available online. Hijab Store Online is the first website to be offering this new design. It is very easy to wear and also perfect for new muslimahs who have just been introduced to the hijab.

The mona hijab is a one piece hijab consisting of a stretch underscarf with a shayla/scarf attached. When the underscarf is put on, the attached shayla falls naturally into place and just needs to be wrapped once round the head and fastened with a hijab pin or tucked under the chin. The fabric of the underscarf is non-slip and will stay in place.

	Step 1. Place the mona hijab onto the head, if layering with a lace band, add that on first as shown in the picture. For easy fitting, find the peak/front part of the hijab and slide the underscarf over the head, ensuring that the 'peak' stays at the front. Similar to how you would wear a one piece al-amira hijab (without the attached shayla).
	Step 2. With a mona hijab, one side of the shayla is always longer than the other. Take the longer part of the attached shayla and bring it round under the chin....
	Step 3. .....over the head,
	Step 4. ..and to the opposite side. Pin into place. There you have it, the perfect hijab look with the minimum of fuss!

Velcro Hijab:

The 'Velcro Hijab' is a new design, exclusive to Hijab Store Online. These have elastic velcro atttached to the front of the hijab which is then connected at the back of the neck for a secure, neat finish.

	Step 1. First image shows how the elastic velcro is connected to the ends of the front part of the hijab.
	Step 2. The velcro ends are taken to the back of the nape and fastened at the back of the neck, giving a clean secure fit.
	Step 3. For a simple finish, one end of the hijab can be placed over one shoulder.
	Step 4. Following on from the last image, the other end is placed over the other shoulder. This can also be pinned at the back of the head for a more secure finish with a hijab pin.

How to Wear a Hijab Properly

There are many different ways to wear a Hijab properly. When it comes to Islamic clothing, though, a lot of modernization has taken place; there are essentially five styles to wear the Hijab and these are underlined below.



First style

In this technique of wearing the hijab, a pashmina shawl is placed over the head with one side shorter than the other side. Then, using a safety pin, the two edges are folded back behind the neck and pinned together. When pinning, the scarf front should look smooth and neat. Then, take the longer scarf edge and bring it around under the chin and take the scarf all the way to the other end. The hijab should fall evenly around your shoulders and there must be no creases on the front portion of the scarf. Once the placement is satisfactory, you should pin the other edge of the hijab to the portion around under the neck.

Second style

In this technique, the method of wearing the hijab is the same as the first style. However the difference is that in here, the finish is smoother and neater in appearance. The hijab front portion is pinned onto the back of the person's head instead of in the front as in the first method.

Third style

This is a very popular and smart style of wearing the hijab. These days there is a wide range of oblong hijabs available at various stores selling wholesale Islamic clothing. You can use such hijabs or a scarf in this third style. In this method, place the Pashmina shawl on the head with one side long and other short. Fold the scarf behind the head and pin the two edges at the nape of your neck behind the head. As in the earlier methods, ensure the hijab front is smooth with no creases. Take the longer scarf edge and bring it around under the chin all the way to the other side. You can now pin the hijab under your ear or on the head side as per your individual preference. You can also pin the hijab at the back of the head for a cleaner and smarter appearance.

Mona Hijab

This is a new kind of hijab style, which is only available online. Thus, the best place to get such hijabs would be in online shops which specialize in wholesale Islamic clothing. This is a single-piece hijab comprising of underscarf with stretch material and a scarf attached to it. Once you place the underscarf on the head, the attached hijab will fall smoothly and naturally around the head so you only have to wrap it once and pin it on the front or back of the head.

Turban styled

This is a very new design when it comes to wearing hijabs. In these exclusive designs, the Kuwaiti Amira is a good choice. In such a style of wearing hijab, the person has to tie the hijab ends on the back of the head and bring the edges again to the front, fold the sides and swing all around the head. All excess parts of the scarf have to be tied underneath or the other end can be tucked at the side. You can also add another scarf to the turban as per individual preference.
