Everyday Hijab Looks
With temperatures rising up to 40°C in some parts of India and Mumbai having an average temperature of 30-35°C every day, summer heat this year is no joke. Unless you live in Antarctica, you must be feeling the summer heat, but we can’t let this heat get the best of us and enjoy the summer rays before the rain comes & wipes out all our plans.
Even though dressing modestly and wearing a hijab is a blessing, when temperatures exceed 40 degrees, it can get a little overwhelming. Choosing light fabrics and wrapping your scarf loosely can help you beat the summer heat (and have the perfect reply to the nagging question, “Aren’t you feeling hot in that?”).
Keeping cool and at a comfortable temperature can be difficult for those who dress modestly. Fortunately, we at modestvogue have put together a Everyday Hijab Looks list of some amazing tips that’ll help you keep cool this summer.
Always choose breathable fabrics
It all starts with choosing the right fabrics & traditional nida is an authentic and soft-to-the-touch fabric. Nida is one of the most comfortable fabrics used to make stylish yet modest abayas. Adorbs offers a variety of black & colored abaya styles made of Nida fabric for you to choose the perfect match for every occasion.
cotton hijabs are another way to go & your best friend in summers. The comfortable, breathable and lightweight fabric absorbs sweat to keep you cool in the scorching heat. The Everyday Hijab Looks, cotton fabric lets the air circulate through it, thus making them breathable & the ideal fabric for hijabs.
Choose what feels comfortable to you.
Everyone has different skin sensitivity and different preferences for staying comfortable in hot weather. Some might prefer a simple black of chiffon hijab while others may combine a modest hijab with a flowy dress to beat the heat. So thanks to the versatile nature and designs of modest clothing, nobody has to wear anything they’re uncomfortable in to stay cool.
Wear light-colored outfits and hijabs.
Yes, you read that right, light shade colors are a better option to wear in summers rather than plain black. Of course, many Muslimahs believe that wearing dark colors, particularly black, is preferable. However, we suggest you give lighter colors a try in the summer (at least for your hijab). You can style your outfits with our amazing collection of colored cotton hijabs available in blush, pink, slate grey, powdery beige, and many more subtle yet poppy colors.
Wear natural fibers.
Before you shop for any hijab online for the summer, make sure you only select natural fibers & not fibers that are a blend of different materials. Cotton and silk are much cooler than chiffon in the summer. chiffon is also a good choice but you need to ensure that it’s breathable and doesn’t get uncomfortable as the heat rises.
Make sure the material you select is water-resistant (otherwise it’s out). Avoid it if air cannot pass through it and trust us as you’ll be grateful to us for this trip.
