Choose the right type of headband
Before jumping into the tutorial, it’s essential to pick the best kind of headband. A headband that is not too tight but not too loose is the ideal one. You can use a wide fabric, elastic, or plastic headband. Make sure that the headband is stretchy enough to fit over your head and stay in place.
Place the headband on your head
To begin with, position the headband on your forehead above your eyebrows. Ensure that the headband is covering the hairline. You can choose to leave your bangs or any baby hairs out or tuck them in under the headband. The amount of hair you leave out is dependent on your preference. For a sleeker look, tuck in the hair. For a chic and modern look, leave the baby hair out.
Place the hijab over the headband
Once the headband is in place, it is time to put on the hijab. Place the hijab over the headband and bring it down to cover the head entirely. Ensure that the hijab’s length is enough to cover the back of the neck and ears. You can use a rectangular or square hijab that is not too sheer to cover the head and wrap it around the headband. Ensure that the front part of the hijab is shorter than the back part.
Pin the hijab in place
The hijab might shift or slip from its place, making it uncomfortable to wear. To prevent this, use a safety pin to secure the hijab in place. Pin the hijab to the headband where the hijab’s fabric meets with the headband. Use a hijab pin to secure the hijab’s fabric and make sure that it is in place. Adjust the hijab to cover your neck and ears and ensure that it is not too tight or too loose.
Style the hijab
After the hijab is in place, you can begin to style it according to your preference. You can bring the hijab’s front part closer to your face or let it loose. You can also use a hijab brooch or other hijab accessories to jazz up the hijab and personalize it according to your style. Play around with different hijab styles to find the one that suits you best.
