Translated from Arabic, hijab is a veil, barrier, veil. This is a type of clothing made of opaque fabric that completely covers the entire body, except for the face, hands and feet, and keeps Islamic women from striving to please strange men. However, in the modern world, it is customary to consider an Islamic traditional women's headscarf as a hijab.
Requirement of religion and fashion accessory
The hijab, originally intended to hide female beauty, is now very popular even among representatives of other religions. The modern fashion industry offers a large selection of textures and colors of national Islamic shawls, and many options for tying them make women more stylish and elegant compared to bare-headed women. Islamic girls are taught how to tie a hijab from childhood, because according to Sharia law, from the age of 7-10, as soon as the forms begin to give out a young woman in her, she will be forced to hide behind, demonstrating modesty.
How to tie an Islamic headscarf correctly
Eata lot of beautiful ways to tie a hijab. First of all, it should be noted that the length and width of the canvas must be at least one and a half meters, otherwise it will not work beautifully to tie it. The extra 20-30 centimeters will give you the opportunity to dream up with folds and drapery. The scarf should cover the entire head and chest. Ears, neck and hair must be covered. Having collected all the hair, you need to carefully lay the scarf on your forehead along the hairline, fix it on the back of the head under the hair, and then in a variety of ways at the chin. To do this, you need a beautiful pin or brooch. Since it will be difficult to tie a hijab gracefully the first time, it’s worth starting with the simplest way: tuck the scarf on one side by 10 centimeters, then lay this edge around the face and fasten it in the form of a hat at the back, while leaving free ends of different lengths. Wrap the short end around the neck, and lay the long end on the chest with soft folds and secure with an elegant brooch on the shoulder or at the level of the temple. It is very convenient to tie a hijab on a special cap that will hide your hair from prying eyes and help if the scarf moves.
Some wearing requirements
Hijab can become a real decoration and fashion accessory if you harmoniously choose several shades of different fabrics that echo the main color of the outfit. Some ethics of wearing an Islamic headscarf should also be taken into account: you should not wear transparent tight clothes with it. As for colors, there are no strict restrictions. Eventhe wedding hijab does not have to be white, with the exception of inscriptions and various symbols. Since you need to tie a hijab both in winter and in summer, it is advisable to select the fabric in accordance with the season. For summer, silk, satin, chiffon and calico shawls in pastel shades are well suited, while in the cold season, woolen materials of a darker color are preferable. Muslim women wear the hijab to show respect and love for Allah, but today this scarf has become a fashion accessory and has taken its rightful place in the wardrobe of modern non-Islamic fashionistas.
