In this post she will show us her favorite hijab styles, with gorgeous Makeup by

1. THE HIJAB BOW
An easy construction of a large bow.

2. THE WRAP-AROUND
A simple, wrapping style for a hijabi on the go.



3. THE FLOWER HIJAB
This hijab style resembles a flower. I used one scarf to recreate this look and used straight pins to secure it in place.

4. THE TURBAN BUN
A turban created with two long scarves forming a bun.
