Tips Mencegah Bau Apek pada Hijab Saat Musim Hujan, Biar Nggak Mengganggu Penampilan

The signs of the rainy season have started to appear in several regions in the homeland. Although it has been awaited after the peak of the summer season occurred for the past few weeks, rainy weather certainly poses its own challenges. The risk of getting wet is definitely happening for those of you who have a lot of activities outside the house. For those who wear hijab, they are also vulnerable to experiencing a musty smell problem that can disturb their appearance. So, what can be done to keep the hijab worn smelling fresh and pleasant during the rainy season? Find out more!

"Avoid wearing the same hijab for days."

The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "The rainy season often makes laundry not dry easily. In order to save clothing stock, some people use the same clothes or other items for several days. However, avoid doing this especially with hijabs."

Try to change your hijab every day because the humid air can make the hijab smell unpleasant.

"Not to mention if it rains on the road, the remaining rainwater and dirt that stick can cause a musty odor that is disturbing. It not only affects the smell of hijab, but it can also have a negative impact on hair and scalp health."

Use Special Detergent

The following is the translation of the 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "Choosing the right detergent is the most important thing to care for and maintain the freshness of hijab during the rainy season. Especially when the weather is frequently rainy every day, hijab doesn't dry easily, which can easily cause a musty smell to appear."

So, it's important to pay attention to the type of detergent used when washing your favorite hijab.
Make sure to choose a formula that is antibacterial to prevent the growth of bacteria that often occurs in damp conditions. Additionally, also select a detergent that has a long-lasting fragrance.

This is important to prevent the musty smell that often appears on hijabs that are difficult to dry.

"Hijab Treatment"

Sun-dry Hijab in a place with good air circulation.

The minimal intensity of sunlight during the rainy season becomes one of the reasons why clothes are difficult to dry. Such a damp condition can also cause a musty smell. Well, overcome this by drying the hijab in a place with good air circulation, but still protected from rainwater.

For example, by hanging the hijab on the terrace of the house where it is easily exposed to wind, it can help the drying process. However, if it is necessary to dry it indoors, assist air circulation by turning on a fan directed towards the clothes and hijab being dried. This trick can help the hijab dry quickly while reducing the risk of musty odor.

"Avoid Ironing Damp Hijab"

Have you ever had to iron a hijab that is still damp because you were in a rush and pressed for time? Usually, this happens when the stock of hijabs in the wardrobe is already empty, so you have to use one that is not completely dry yet.

However, did you know that this is also what can cause a musty smell on the hijab being used?

It is better to wait for the hijab to completely dry before ironing it. To avoid being trapped in the same dilemma, it is better to have a stock of hijabs at home for emergency situations.

"Maintain Hair Hygiene"

Although the hair is covered by a hijab, it doesn't mean that you don't need to pay attention to its cleanliness. Regularly shampooing is very important to prevent the hijab from smelling musty during the rainy season. Hair that is covered by a hijab all day can make the scalp feel damp and trigger an unpleasant odor.

Don't forget to choose a hijab shampoo that is specifically formulated to provide freshness to hijabers. For example, one that contains a formula to prevent dandruff and has a long-lasting fragrance to prevent unpleasant odor on the scalp.

Ideally, shampooing should be done regularly 3-4 times a week and don't forget to wash your hair if you get caught in the rain! Because the remaining rainwater that sticks to the scalp can cause itching, dandruff, and unpleasant odor. Those were some tips to prevent musty odor on hijabs during the rainy season that you can apply at home. Good luck!
