Tie the headscarf to fit the shape of your face.

That's how it should be: the hijab and headscarf draw all attention to your face. The way the scarf is tied is particularly striking. Depending on how the head covering is wrapped, you can accentuate your facial features and create new proportions.

Long face

Besides a loose tie, the bonnet plays a crucial role with this face shape. It effectively shortens your face because it visibly covers part of your forehead. Always wear your hijab or headscarf loosely over it.

• Round face

Your face will appear slimmer and more elongated if you forgo a bonnet. This will prevent your face from looking flat. It's best to cover the sides of your face with the hijab. This will draw attention to your forehead.

• oval face

With this naturally harmonious face shape, you have a wide range of options. Elaborate ties are only distracting. You also shouldn't wrap the scarf too tightly around your neck. Folding the hijab to the side also suits you well.

• Heart-shaped face

If your face narrows from your forehead, across your cheeks, to your chin, you should opt for a close-fitting headband. Fold the upper part of your headscarf or hijab inwards at the sides to create a pointed shape. Then, loosely secure your head covering with pins. It's best to tie your hair lower down to avoid emphasizing your forehead too much.

• square face

Do you want your striking face shape to appear softer and gentler? Then try tying your hijab so that it's not too tight around your jaw. Your face will immediately look much more oval.

• rectangular face

Here, a bonnet under a hijab or headscarf is mandatory. The under-headscarf makes your face appear slimmer and gives it a more oval shape. Also, avoid tight ties and wear your head covering as loosely as possible.

• Triangular face

Do you have a wide jaw and a narrower forehead? Then a bonnet is the perfect choice to add more weight to your forehead. You can accentuate it even more by tying it tightly. Keep the bonnet loose in the area below. This will automatically make your jawline appear much slimmer.
