5 habits all Hijabis know they have

1. Hijab pins

We see these everywhere; chairs, handbags, clothes, cars, everywhere. Your hijab comes loose in public? Ask any Hijabi who uses pins to wrap, and there is always a spare one handy.

2. Hijab sunburns

If you see a Hijabis with a uniform facial skin tone, it is either the sun’s her skin’s best friend or she is using a good sunscreen or you should ask her for her skin care products. We are used to the Saturn ring that appears around the covered part of their faces.

3. Using alternative Hijabs

In case of an emergency, anything can serve as a hijab for Hijabis. A random man steps into the house? The curtains are a good alternative. Someone screams “fire” when you are sleeping? A Hijabi will grab her bed sheets, wrap herself around herself and run out. A food order finally arrives after two hours of waiting. If you see her opening her door with her head covered with a towel, just give her the food and say nothing.

4. Owning many black variants of hijabs

There is a universal hijab law that there is no such thing as too many black hijabs in a Hijabis wardrobe. Coal black, ashy black, crimpled black, chiffon black, we just love our blacks.

5. The newly improvised Hijab iron

We don’t own hair straighteners to straighten our hairs anymore. Ever since TikTok and their ever-flowing ideas, every Hijabi has found a good use for the hair irons lying around in their rooms. And besides, we all know that heat is bad for 4c hair, so money is never wasted with a hair iron when NEPA brings light though.
