Conscious Coverings: Hijab and Sustainability

In a world where the market offers tempting bundles like 3 hijabs for £10, it's natural to question why one might opt for a more premium choice. Trust me, I've been there – who doesn't love a good bargain? I want to share with you our thoughts behind our pricing strategy and highlight the value of investing in premium hijab quality for a more sustainable wardrobe.

I've personally experienced the excitement of purchasing cheaper hijabs, only to be disappointed as they lose colour, threads unravel, or become worn out after minimal use. Our commitment to sustainability extends to the longevity of our products. Our fabric research prioritises durability, ensuring your hijab remains vibrant even after numerous washes.

Here are three tips on how to create a sustainable wardrobe:

  1. Invest in Quality Over Quantity:

When adding hijabs to your collection, opt for quality over quantity. Choose hijabs made from durable and sustainable fabrics like organic cotton, bamboo, or recycled materials if possible. While these may have a slightly higher upfront cost, they tend to last longer. Investing in well-made hijabs means you won't need to replace them as frequently, contributing to a more sustainable wardrobe in the long run.

  1. Mindful Purchases for a Seasonal Capsule

We're not here to tell you to buy loads of hijabs from us but that you should have enough for a seasonal capsule and colours that you know you'll wear. Instead of having an extensive collection and more than you can store, focus on a few versatile pieces that can be styled in various ways for different occasions. Prioritise colours and styles that seamlessly integrate into your daily wardrobe, allowing you to mix and match effortlessly. This intentional and mindful approach to hijab shopping ensures that each piece serves a purpose within your seasonal capsule, promoting sustainability without sacrificing style.

  1. Careful Maintenance and Washing

Extend the lifespan of your hijabs by following proper care instructions. Our website provides detailed care instructions, so make sure you wash them according to the recommended guidelines to preserve colour and fabric quality.

So sure, our hijabs might have a slightly higher price tag compared to market prices but rest assured that the cost of the fabric we choose surpasses the price of those found in bundles under £10. This is because we're committed to selecting materials with utmost care, opting for premium stitching, and incorporating handwork where necessary. We believe in offering you not just a piece of fabric but a meticulously crafted accessory that stands out in terms of both quality and design.
