High Street Finds: Headbands

My favourite way of accessorising hijabs is with headbands. Try layering them with your long shayla scarves to add some glam for a special occasion, or just to change up your everyday style. These are a few of my favourites finds:


Mesh chain headband £7.50, Dorothy Perkins; Seed Bead Headband £12, Oasis; Feather And Gem Strap Headpiece £8; Satin And Diamante Headband £8, both Topshop.

  1. I love headbands with hijabs! I wear them sometimes maybe not as fancy as these :)
    It also helps keep the hijab in its place and not fall of especially when your not wearing an underscarf.

  2. I would love to see pics of people using headbands like these. I tried and it looked silly! Maybe I was doing it wrong?

  6. Some of the Muslimah Style entries show ladies wearing the headbands, like Jaida: http://www.hijabstyle.co.uk/2010/10/muslimah-style-jaida.html

    You can also watch a few tutorials using headbands here:

  9. What a terrific idea! I also like to use sparkly pins and chunky jewel pins on side to keep it all together. They really do add a fabulous touch! I like sparkly scarves but they're often itchy so this headband idea adds the sparkle without the irriation!

    I've recently started my own blog. It's called My Muslim Moments. Here's the link if anyone is interested in checking it out:

  11. I've never worn this style, but the elastic headbands seem more practical as I would think that the normal open/plastic headbands would rise up. Thanks for sharing!
