Chiffon hijabs have become amongst the most popular fabrics to wear. The fabric is light-weight, soft and delicate, making it an elegant touch to any outfit. However, stain removal from such a delicate fabric has proven to be burdensome, especially if the hijab is light coloured.
No matter who you are, or where you go. Staining your hijab is a part of life. You won’t know when it’s coming but it’s bound to happen. A stain can turn a good meal into a hijab disaster, the type of disaster that happens when the foods you love -- and trust -- run amok all over your precious hijab. It's amazing how a little Alfredo sauce can breathe life into a forkful of tortellini -- or completely destroy a chiffon hijab.
