A hijab is a head covering worn by Muslim women as a symbol of modesty, faith, and cultural identity. It comes in various styles, fabrics, and designs that have evolved into a significant part of modern modest fashion. 

Common Hijab Types

Hijab styles vary by region and personal preference, from simple drapes to elaborate wraps. 

• Shayla: A long, rectangular scarf popular in the Gulf region, typically wrapped loosely around the head and shoulders and secured with pins.
• Khimar: A cape-like veil that drapes over the head, neck, and shoulders, often extending down to the waist, favored for its easy, modest, and minimal coverage.
• Turban: A contemporary style where the fabric is wrapped around the head, leaving the face and neck clear. It is versatile, customizable, and a popular choice in Western countries for a practical, chic look.
• Amira Hijab: A simple, two-piece, slip-on option that typically includes a close-fitting cap and a a hood, designed for ease of use without pins, ideal for busy lifestyles or beginners.
• Niqab/Burqa: These offer more complete coverage. The niqab is a face veil that leaves only the eyes visible, while the burqa covers the entire body, including a mesh screen over the eyes.
