You wear your hijab with pride and self-confidence. That's wonderful, but at the same time it's a bit of a challenge for your hair. Here we'll show you how to give the beauty on your head healthy attention and care for it properly.
Have you found your perfect hijab at LIA and ordered the matching bone at the same time? Just like with your headscarf, you have made a good choice for your hair. We would be delighted if you contacted us and gave us feedback on your experience with our products. We always have helpful information for you for your everyday life and your well-being with our products. Today we are giving you valuable tips on hair care under the headscarf.
5 tips for headscarf wearers:
- Sleeping on silk or satin pillows
This is not about luxury attitudes, but wellness for your sensitive hair. Pillows made of silk or satin help the scalp to regulate sebum production. Unfortunately, ordinary cotton pillowcases do not do this. Instead, they absorb the oily secretion so much that the sebaceous glands produce more of it. Over time, you will clearly notice the difference.
- Buy high-quality, breathable hijabs
Scarves and headscarves made of polyester are a thing of the past. Now there are plenty of hijabs that allow air to reach the hair and skin. At the same time, materials such as cotton, silk and jersey are opaque. Hijabs made of bamboo viscose are the ultimate soft and sustainable option. They are valuable for your hair and the environment in every way.
- Give your hair a break
Seriously: your hair needs some sun and fresh air. Otherwise it will suffocate from the many hours it spends under the hijab during the day and, at best, artificial light in the evening. You should really go outside without a hat every now and then. This will provide it with vitamin D and oxygen. Do you have a place that is hidden from view where you can give your hair a bath in air and sun? Another idea: organize an uncovered chat at a friend's house who has the right garden, balcony or sheltered terrace for this.
- Wash hair rarely and with halal products
Only clean your hair as often as necessary. Depending on your hair type, this should only be done every second or third day. Otherwise, it will dry out and lose its natural moisture. Only use natural care products that do not contain any questionable ingredients. You can be completely safe in this regard if you use halal cosmetics for your hair.
- Use rich hair oils and masks
With these care products you can strengthen your hair in a targeted manner. The vitamins and proteins contained in oils from olives, argan seeds or almonds protect against hair breakage and ensure a healthy shine.
