Salaam VELA fam! With the fall weather we are slowly beginning to layer a bit and transition to different hijab materials such as jersey or chiffon. One crucial detail that most hijabis tend to overlook is the importance of an undercap. While some simply choose not to wear one, whereas others agree it has helped their hair become less frizzy, it’s important to do research and find the best undercap for you! Today’s blog post will focus on some things to consider when buying an undercap along with some of their benefits!

Coverage

The Original Undercap is one of the basic undercaps at VELA. It provides full coverage for your hair as well as a versatile tie-back design. You can either tie the ends at the back, like pictured above or wrap the ends around your bun to hold it securely. Also. for the girlies that prefer neck coverage, you can take the ends of the undercap and cross them over your neck to cover that area. 

Style

Recently, lace has been a trending print for hijabis, and it doesn’t just extend to hijabs. VELA’s Lace Undercap provides an elegant look to your hijab style with an intricate lace framing the front. The lace is also made from a breathable material which helps your hair breathe at the front!. This undercap is completely covered at the back, so your hair will stay in place all day!

Efficiency

When we’re on the go, whether it’s office/school, or even running to an appointment, we don’t have time to wrap our hijabs, and we especially won’t have time to tie our undercaps. That’s why VELA’s Tube Undercap is great because it functions as a headband that takes less than a few seconds to put on. This undercap is a perfect blend of comfort and breathability, as the opening in the back allows your hair to breathe!
