I "found" this scarf again and rescued it from the shelf it was covering. I bought it a few years ago because I loved the colors and the pattern on both sides. But when I started wearing scarves as hijabs, I couldn't stand to wear this one because it was too heavy. I wasn't used to the weight of it yet, and it pulled my hair down unpleasantly. Also notable, at the time I didn't have any bonnet caps yet. So, I decided to put it on and give it a try. It was also an experiment to see if I could handle wearing the heavier pashminas as hijabs, rather than just the lightweight viscose and chiffon scarves I have now. (Since there are some very lovely pashminas I'm dying to have...) ...
...
I think the experiment turned out well. It did get a little heavy toward the end of the day, but for most of the day I was fine with it. I think if I wore it a few days a week, I would get used to the weight. So, I think I'll be ordering those pashminas after all, hehe....

Because: HUGE selection (over 1,000 scarves), fast and reasonably-priced international shipping. Has everything a beginner would need, and is always getting new products, including Mona and Kuwaiti hijabs.

Seems to have a good selection of Al-Amira and Spanish-style caps, as well as some interesting bonnets and scarves.

A nice selection of modest clothing, including jilbabs, tops, cardigans, and maxi dresses. Also hijabs of all types. Offers a monthly contest for a free hijab.

Good selection of reasonably-priced hijab scarves, a wide selection of full-coverage underscarves (called Covering Bandannas on the site), bonnets, and the "bulkyjab," a generously-sized scarf for full coverage with lots of fabric to play with. Order within the UK only, because their international shipping rates are outrageous.

Newly launched modest clothing line by hijabi Hana Tajima-Simpson. A basic collection, but bound for great things. Basics of each item your wardrobe requires- skirts, trousers, polo tops, snood caps, dresses. Pre-ordered items shipped quickly, and were very high quality.
