Buying guide
How to Choose a Plain Cotton Voile Hijab
Every piece in this collection is cotton voile, and every product code starts with SD. Three things are enough for a quick choice: use, size and colour.
How to choose a plain voile hijab
- Use: the Arabic product descriptions present these hijabs for home and as excellent for everyday wear. All of them describe the fabric as light, and most add that it is soft and stays in place on the head.
- Size: most descriptions give a length of 214 cm and a width of 106 cm, and most titles describe the hijab as wide. Measure a hijab you already wear and compare its figures with the piece you like, because a few descriptions give the size in a different unit.
- Colour: first pick a colour that goes with what you wear most, then a second one for variety. The table below groups the collection's colours into four families.
Choose a colour that suits your wardrobe
These are examples of colours in the collection; the colours available change from time to time.
| Family | Example colours in the collection | Suits you if |
|---|---|---|
| Light and neutral | White, off-white, milky white, beige, grey | You want a colour that goes with most of your clothes |
| Dark | Black, navy, indigo, burgundy, dark brown | You prefer a calm look with lighter clothes |
| Bright | Red, fuchsia, turquoise, yellow, shades of orange | You want a touch of colour with plain outfits |
| Soft | Light yellow, mauve, light blue, light purple | You prefer a gentle colour for daytime and home |
A colour can look slightly different across screens and lighting, so compare the piece's photos before you choose.
Common questions
What fabric are the hijabs in this collection?
They are cotton voile, which we call قطن ويل in Arabic, and every product code starts with SD. The Arabic product descriptions describe the fabric as light, and most describe it as soft and comfortable. The descriptions do not state fabric weight, so ask about it for the specific piece if you need it.
Are plain voile hijabs suitable for home and everyday wear?
Yes, that is the use the product descriptions give: a hijab for home, excellent for everyday wear. Most of the Arabic descriptions also say it stays in place on the head.
Is cotton voile the same as Duja Al Lail?
No, they are two different fabrics at Shailah. The SD code marks cotton voile and the DS code marks Duja Al Lail, and other collections carry pieces in both fabrics under different codes, so check the fabric in each piece's description.
Is there a plain voile hijab in black or white?
Yes, the collection includes pieces in black, white, off-white and milky white, alongside dark, bright and soft colours. The colours available change from time to time, so check the pieces shown on this page.
