Fashion hijabs are becoming the outlook of many Muslim women today. The hijab combines practicing Islam together with the joy of living in Islam. A variety of colours that God has provided us with are used in various combinations. The hijab is not only styled using the colour but also studying factors such as ease of use, durability, price, and transparency. Fashion hijabs vary from the al Amira range to the pashminas.

The Al Amira hijab range consists of cotton-rich polyester scarves made for the working woman in mind. The al amira hijab was also initially designed for women who had physically demanding day to day

activities. This kind of hijab has now become more fashionable while still trying to keep hold of its initial qualities. The most common kind of al Amira hijab is a one piece hijab. A one piece hijab comes with and without laces on the forehead. It has various colours from pink to green and red. Nowadays al Amira one piece hijabs are also available in dual colour schemes where two contrasting or matching colours have been combined into a single hijab.

Another type of al al amira hijab is the two piece hijab. The two piece hijab also comes in with and without lace models. This hijab has a cap separated from the actual scarf body. The cap has to be worn before wearing the rest of the hijab. The two piece al Amira hijab has models with embroidery and beads on the cap, diamantes on the cap, dual colour schemes and many more. The plain two piece hijabs seem to be the most popular at present. These hijabs are probably the most firm and fitted hijabs in terms of grip on the head. It would be very unusual if a two piece hijab slipped off somebody's head.

The one piece hijab and the two piece hijab is also available in a children's sizes. There is a standard hijab size for children for up to the age of about twelve after which the adult regular hijab sizes should be used. The al amira hijab is also available in super extra large sizes for larger heads.

The pashminas hijab range is probably one of the fastest upcoming and selling hijab ranges in the world. It is made from cotton, polyester, silk and many other combinations of materials. The pashmina hijab is only available in a rectangular shape rather than a square shape. Pashminas are worn by many people Muslim and non-Muslim alike as pashminas can be worn with abayas, modern jilbabs and even jeans for some people. The pashmina hijab has a variety of colours, probably the largest range of colours and designs in the hijab world.

Another hijab range would be Shaylas. A shayla hijab is simply a rectangular hijab made of very thin cloth and a narrow design flowing through. It is mainly used to cover just the head or just the neck of the person wearing the shayla hijab. The shayla hijab is very popular in the Middle-East especially in the United Arab Emirates.This kind of hijab is usually worn with modern jilbabs and jalabiyas. Shaylas are mostly available in bright colours as it is a summer trend.

Square hijabs is also a whole range of hijabs in itself. A square hijab is approximately fifty two inches on each side. This kind of hijab comes in all possible colours and designs with and without embroidery. The square hijab are popular in Asian countries as well as in Turkey, Eastern and Central Africa and parts of North Africa. The square hijab is made of cotton or georgette and is stitched round all four borders to get a smooth edge. This hijab style has been around for as long as most people could remember.

Another hijab style is the netted hijab. The netted hijab is precisely as it is called, a netted design. This hijab comes in rectangular format and is also available in various colours. The netted hijab is usually worn on top of another hijab or on a hijab bonnet cap. This kind of hijab is a summer design and so is mostly available during the summers in large varieties. The netted hijab partly inspired the creation of the Kuwaiti hijab which will be explained shortly.

The Kuwaiti hijab is presently the most popular hijab in the market. It consists of a main hijab portion that is cotton rich and a rectangular netted hijab section which is attached at the neck potion of the main hijab with one end left unattached. Once the main part of the Kuwaiti hijab is worn the netted hijab section is wrapped around the main hijab portion and attached with a hijab pin at the end or tucked in at the neck. The netted hijab portion has a satin border usually. Kuwaiti hijabs are worn all year round and are now available in various materials from cotton to silk and polyester. The Kuwaiti hijab is very convenient to wear and has a stylish outlook to it. It has been in the market for around two years but has recently gained popularity after being introduced by more retailers such as Muslimbase.com.

A modification of the Kuwaiti hijab design which is slowly gaining pace in the market is the Kuwaiti joint hijab. This hijab is similar to the Kuwaiti hijab in design and style except that the second netted portion is attached on both sides to the neck portion. To wear this kind of hijab the second portion has to be twisted once and then worn over the main portion of the hijab forming a loose lining over it with a knot in the front of the neck. The Kuwaiti joint hijab also has a tighter main portion at the neck section as the Kuwaiti joint hijab can not be tightened using the netted section.The fashion hijab is changing at a faster rate with demand for the hijab on the rise. The design of the hijab will also get modified over time as the realisation of the needs of the hijab wearers is endorsed. The hijab is a sense of freedom not imprisonment. The hijab should be worn with pride and dignity as it is a sign of the Ideal Muslimah and is here to stay until the day of judgement.
