    Actually so amazing

    Like this is so durable it stays on your head and it does not at all budge. Though for me, I do end up, tying it a bit too tight so I end up having like an indent on my forehead, which is totally OK that’s on me but that also just proves that. Oh my gosh, this really sticks and it does not like move throughout the day no matter what activity I’m doing. It does tend to actually stretch a little bit. Maybe that’s just the way. I’m tying it, but I tie it so much that I don’t want like the triangle or I guess the hijab cap extras to be seen like I hide back within my Bun so when I put my actual hijab on on top of this cap, it is Hidden I’ve noticed that it’s stretched out a little bit because of me tying it so maybe I’m doing it wrong but it does stretch out a little bit but it’s OK because the material still works. The only thing that maybe negative about it is that it is definitely not that good for your hair like usually I used silk hijab caps, but they slip and slide a lot. This one was really durable. I wish there was like a material that would be good for my hair. I’ve noticed my hair is getting a little unhealthy than it was before but that’s OK. I mean I’d rather have no hair show. Don’t want that free hair reveal. But definitely worth it and especially worth this price really strong really durable. Something you can wear exercising just walking or just going out to your regular day.

    Too sheer and expensive

    Since everyone always raves about Vela I thought I’d give it a try and not a surprise another brand being overpriced and sheer
