Salaam, hijabi sisters! It's almost summer here in Australia and it's time to think about how to stay cool during the warmer months. Summer is a time for flowy dresses, lighter colours, and outdoor fun, but the heat and humidity can make it tricky to balance comfort and modesty. Here are a few essential tips to help keep cool and stylish through the hottest months.

Common Summer Challenges for Hijabis

• Humidity & Sweating: Excess sweat in your hijab can feel sticky and cause skin irritation, especially with undercaps. Be sure to wash your hijabs and undercaps regularly to prevent acne and discomfort.

• Finding Modest Summer Clothing: It can be tough to find modest clothes that aren’t tight, see-through, or cropped. Sleeves, neck covers, and layering pieces like lightweight cardigans can be lifesavers.

• Choosing the Right Hijab Fabric: Heavier fabrics are better saved for colder months. Opt for breathable fabrics like modal.

Top Tips for Hijabis in the Summer

Use Modal Hijabs

Modal hijabs are a summer essential. Our modal hijabs are not only lightweight and breathable but also offer excellent coverage, making them ideal for staying modest and cool. The soft, smooth fabric allows air to circulate, reducing sweat and discomfort. Our Drop 1 collection includes a range of light-coloured modal hijabs, such as stone, taupe, and silver, which are perfect for the summer season. These shades not only keep you cool but also complement a variety of outfits in your summer wardrobe.

Opt for Looser Hijab Styles

Looser hijab styles allow for better airflow and reduce heat buildup around the head and neck. These styles are also more comfortable, especially in hot, humid weather, keeping you stylish and relaxed.

Choose Breathable Fabrics for Clothing

When selecting your summer wardrobe, go for fabrics like linen, cotton, and modal. These materials are breathable, lightweight, and modest, providing the perfect balance between comfort and coverage. Avoid synthetic materials that trap heat, and opt for airy silhouettes to maintain a comfortable, modest look.

Happy summer styling!
