Each woman wishes for a special fashion, which mirrors the woman personality. And thinking of style for Islamic girl the original thing that arrives to mind is the Muslim hijab. The hijab in Arabic refers to a 'cover' or 'barrier'. The Muslim hijab is essentially a headscarf covering the head and also the neck.

They come in a number of designs and colours that make it all the more difficult to select one that suits you the best.

Muslim Hijabs: The Types

The Muslim hijab has been in use since medieval times, and since afterward, it has developed into various designs depending on the culture and region (such as the Kuwaiti hijab plus the Pashmina hijab). Though, it basically is of three types:

* The Al Amira: This is basically a two piece veil, consisting of a massive head band or a close fitting cap, commonly made of polyester or cotton, along having a tube like scarf worn over it.

* The Shyla: This is a long and rectangular scarf generally worn by girl in the Gulf countries. It is wrapped over and around the head, and then pinned or tucked at the shoulder.

* The Khimer: The Khimer is mostly longer. It consists of a cape like veil, which commonly falls down to a little above the waist. It handles the hair, bosom, neck and shoulders, whilst leaving the face open. Muslim women will generally wear the Khimer while they pray or when they are on the Hajj pilgrimage.
