What is Egyptian hijab?

In Egypt, women usually have a significant amount of freedom to decide how they dress. Some women decide to accept certain aspects of Islamic modest codes, also known as hijab. This often includes wearing a scarf. The Egyptian hijab can also be used to describe certain styles of scarf wearing Egyptian women, of which there are conservative and modern variations.

The question of Islamic dresses in Egypt was often controversial in modern times. Unlike some Muslim countries, Egyptian women are not bound by law to wear a scarf, face or cover the whole body. However, some women decided to cover their heads and bodies to different degrees while they are in public. Since women usually have great freedom to choose the degree of harmony with the Islamic codes of dressing, the Egyptian hijab may differ significantly from a woman to a woman.

However, there are at least two different headgear styles that are referred to as Egypthijab. The first is the Egyptian wrap. This includes wrapping of one orAbout more scarfs around the head. The scarf or scarves are then tied to the back or side of the head. This results in covering the head, but do not necessarily cover the neck. The result is a more modern look, which also provides some coverage of head or hair.

There is also a more conservative Egyptian hijab on the market. This style includes a hood made of stretching material that can be slipped over the wearer's head. It covers the neck, hair and ears. This bonnet is connected by a long scarf, which can be dragged over the hood and then folded under the face of the wearer. This ensures further coverage of the neck and chin.

This second type of Egyptian hijab is popular for several reasons. The first is that the elastic closure or hood can be made of fabric in contrasting color from the attached scarf. This can increase the visual attraction of the headgear. In addition, the bonnet itself provides safe coverage in case of windy weather that canblow off the scarf aside. Finally, some who wear Egyptian hijab appreciate the fact that they can wear it without packing a scarf over the top of the headline when participating in sports or other activities where there is a large amount of material around the head and face unpredictable.
