Summer is the ideal season to warm the mind and soften the body, to relax and recharge the batteries. For hijabis, being more covered up can be a problem. Through this post we will share our best tips on how to enjoy the sun and summer weather in modesty.
Which material to choose?
The choice of material is essential to avoid the inconveniences we have all experienced, such as redness or heat spots on the neck or the discomfort of a damp sensation.
But don’t panic! To avoid all this, some materials should be preferred, especially natural ones. Cotton, linen and silk are comfortable, stylish and breathable. A breathable material is one that lets the heat from your body escape to the outside.
They therefore have the advantage of reducing your perspiration.
– Cotton: easy to iron and absorbent, it will be your best ally for a casual look.
– Linen: thanks to its insulating and absorbent properties, it will allow you to feel cool and avoid the feeling of discomfort. It is still a must-have for summer.
– Silk: with its silky and shiny look, it will add a chic touch to all your day and evening outfits and allow you to feel elegant and light.
In general, opt for the lightest possible materials for clothing and veiling. Choose soft and light fabrics fabrics to ensure optimal comfort during the summer season.
Colour matters more than you might think. “But a colour doesn’t change my comfort…”. On the contrary, some shades of colour can be more warming.
Should you dress light when it’s hot?
It is indeed a reflex to bring out light-coloured clothes, but why?
What cut of clothing should we hijabis wear in summer?
The cut is as important as the colour. You know that light colours are advisable in hot weather, but then why do Bedouins in the desert wear black dresses?
This is because the Tuareg wear very loose clothing, thanks to which a current of air is constantly passing through the wearer and keeps him or her cool. This is why the cut is important in your choice.
Which hairstyle to choose?
Finally, it’s best to wear your hair in braids, as this avoids having a huge mass of hair on your neck. It will make you cooler and allow your neck to breathe a little!
