The following tips will help you determine the most appropriate way to wear a hijab with glasses. Consider the occasion for which you are preparing, the shape of your face, the color of your skin, the type of glasses that are comfortable to wear, and most importantly, the type of designs that are suitable to your individual fashion sense. You’ll find plenty of helpful information on how to select a pair of glasses that complements your hijab style on our website.
What is the correct method for tying my hijab?
Your first step will be to determine which way to wrap your hijab depending on whether you prefer a more traditional or more contemporary look. There is a possibility that you already possess a style you enjoy. You should adhere to what you know fits your personality if this is the case.
Here are some popular ways in which you can tie your hijab if you are looking for inspiration. Depending on your preference, you can wear it loosely around your head or secure it around your chin for a more polished appearance. You can achieve a more trendsetting appearance by allowing a part of your hijab to drape over one shoulder. Please ensure that your ears are visible when you wear earrings and that they are not covered by fabric. As well as highlighting the details on the side of your glasses, this is a good opportunity to showcase them. No matter what you decide, you are free to customize your hijab according to your preferences and the occasion.
It is recommended that you use plenty of clips on both the side and back of your head so that your hijab will remain in place throughout the day. As a result, your glasses will not be altered by the hijab.
What are the best ways to wear glasses while wearing a hijab?
The wearing of glasses with a hijab can be done in three different ways. Alternatively, it may be necessary to place the glasses under the layers, between the layers, or over the fabric. For silk or chiffon hijabs that are smooth, we recommend tucking the glasses around your ears beneath the fabric. Please ensure that your hijab cap and scarf are loose enough to prevent your glasses from rubbing against your ears. To avoid irritation, slide your glasses between the layers of the material if you feel more comfortable doing so. It is also possible to cover your glasses with the hijab. As a result, this method can work only if your hijab is made of cotton or linen rather than silk, due to the possibility of your glasses falling off your face if they are made of silk.
Do you have any recommendations for glasses materials that are comfortable to wear with a hijab?
Wearing a slim, lightweight frame will enhance your comfort, regardless of whether you wear your hijab tight or loose. As a result, you shouldn’t wear glasses that are too heavy on your face. In the event that you decide to purchase a metal frame, choose one with an adjustable nose pad so that the glasses will sit comfortably and securely on your bridge. In the meantime, if you choose to wear an acetate frame, be sure that it is neither too tight nor too large for you. Furthermore, the temples should be smooth and wrap comfortably around your ears to prevent them from rubbing. As another consideration, you should choose hypoallergenic eyeglasses if you have sensitive skin. If you wish to avoid any irritation, you should consider frames made of acetate, titanium, or stainless steel.
Varifocal glasses should be chosen according to their frame size for individuals who wear them. The ideal lens height would be no less than 30 millimetres so that the viewer is able to view the screen comfortably. In our recent blog post, we provided additional information regarding the selection of frames for varifocal lenses. For those with high prescriptions, you may also want to consider our various lens options and packages that are designed to ensure that the lenses are durable and not too thick.

Take into account the shape of your face
A person should also consider the shape of their face when selecting new glasses to wear with a hijab.
In the case of individuals wearing glasses and having a round or oval face, you should choose a shape that adds length to your features, preferably a square or rectangular shape. As well, those who have square faces can add contrast by wearing a round or oval frame, which will soften their features. For those with an oblong face, broad glasses such as boxy squares or Wayfarers would be a good choice. In contrast, if your face is triangular or diamond shaped, choose a classic Clubmaster or cat-eye lens. A design such as this will add width to your forehead and balance your features effectively. A pair of Wayfarers or pilot-style glasses would be appropriate for people with a heart-shaped face. If you wear aviator glasses with round lenses, you will draw less attention to your chin and allow your face to be visually enhanced. In addition to balancing your facial features, Wayfarer sunglasses have wing-like corners.
Make sure that the color you choose matches your skin tone
In selecting the correct colour of glasses to wear with your hijab, you should take into account your skin tone. Check your complexion in the mirror to determine whether your complexion is warm or cool. The undertones of your skin are yellow or golden if you have a warm skin tone. The opposite is true if you have a pink or blue cast to your skin. It is generally assumed that people with a warm complexion will be attracted to lighter colors, such as pale pink and peach, or to metal frames that are golden in color. Darker shades of color, such as black, blue, and silver, will suit individuals with cooler complexions. In case you are uncertain of what you should choose, you may choose versatile colors and patterns, such as ombre and tortoiseshell, which have a mixture of tones to suit everyone. It is generally advisable to select shades that complement your natural skin tone.
Please keep in mind that there are no set style guidelines that you must adhere to. The choice of a pair of glasses that does not naturally complement your skin tone is yours. The most effective way to express your unique style is to find a way that is most comfortable for you.
Hijab and glasses: how to match?
You may find it challenging to decide which hijab to wear and which glasses will complement your outfit, especially when you have to take into account other items in your wardrobe. Don’t worry, just approach it like you would with the rest of your accessories. It is important to ensure that they are in keeping with your aesthetic and complement your natural sense of style. It is possible to choose from a variety of different colors and patterns; however, once you have identified which styles you like and which suit you, you will be able to select the one that suits you the best.
It is important to keep in mind that a darker hijab should be contrasted with lighter glasses, and darker fabrics should be brightened with more vibrant colors. It is recommended that you avoid wearing glasses that alternate black and white if your hijab has a bold pattern. Rather, choose a pattern that corresponds with that of your glasses.
