How to Care for Your Hijabs — Washing & Storage Tips

A well-cared-for hijab lasts longer, keeps its color, and stays soft against your skin. Different fabrics need slightly different care, so here's how to keep your Hijab e Zauq collection looking and feeling its best.

Chiffon

Hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid wringing — gently squeeze out excess water instead, and lay flat to dry. Chiffon can snag easily, so store it away from rough fabrics or sharp jewelry.

Georgette

Machine washable on a gentle cycle with cold water, but hand washing is gentler on the fabric long-term. Air dry away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. A cool iron on the reverse side helps smooth out any creases.

Silk

Silk needs the most care. Hand wash only, in cold water with a silk-safe or mild detergent — never wring or twist. Dry flat in shade, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can weaken the fibers over time. Store silk hijabs folded, not hung, to avoid stretching.
