The Dark Truth About Ex-Hijabi Influencers

Описание: The Dark Truth About Ex-Hijabi Influencers. Three of these influencers will be discussed in this Video. Dina Tokio , Amena/Ameena khan (pearl daisy) & HANAN TEHAILI. Hijabi influencers have been around for at least a decade and have been teaching young Muslim girls and women all about how to wear their hijabs in a stylish way, how to dress ‘modestly’ and how to pull off the latest make-up look.

Muslim women who have never worn the hijab and new reverts could learn how to wear one, some were inspired to wear the hijab because of them, and they did teach many how to look for ‘modest’ items in mainstream shops especially in the West where hijab-specific clothing is hard to come by. However, this has also led to a degeneration of the meaning of hijab as it became desacralized and merely a fashion piece.

Capitalism, consumerism, and celebrity culture – three forces which have been shaping the way people think and behave. They are tools used to influence and coerce the population in doing what those in power desire. Islam, which opposes these very forces has become the target. As one of the most visible symbols of Islam, the hijab and Muslim women have been one of the areas hardest hit. Muslim women have been attacked for wearing the hijab for decades. The hijab has been described as an act of oppression and something that Muslim women need to be liberated from. It’s also been seen as something that is worn only by women who are weak, submissive and who lack a sense of fashion. In order to fight back against this notion and to prove that we are empowered and can look good in a hijab, many Muslim women took to the internet to share their perspectives. Due to this, along with the rise of social media, the hijabi influencer was born.
Here are four things to keep in mind:

1. It is INTENTIONAL

It’s in the name; they are influencers. They are very aware that their actions and choices influence their viewers. That’s why companies are willing to pay thousands of $$$$ to get them to use their products. So when these hijabi youtubers take off their hijab, you can be sure they are trying to get you to do the same, despite what they may say.

We may think we have control over our actions, but much of what we do is based on the environment we live in, what we see around us, our family, friends and so on. This is called the phenomenon of ‘social contagion’ where people are more likely to do things if they see others around them doing it. There is a science to influence and those who want you to take off your hijab know exactly how to do it. It operates on a subconscious level:

2. They are brands, not people

Influencers often build a deep relationship with their viewers to the point people feel like they’re the ‘sisters they never had’ or one of their close friends. They trust that person’s advice and feel they truly know them. Seeing that person’s day-to-day life through vlogs and getting to know the person through long conversation-style videos and personal Q&A’s, it’s no wonder viewers feel this way.

But we have to keep in mind that this is a business. You don’t know them as a person. You know them as a brand. Dina Tokio. Amena. Hanan Tehailli. These are brands. What you see is a carefully curated portrayal. And don’t forget that these influencers have agents and a whole social media management team who help them manage their business.

Dina Tokio used to sell hijabs and modest clothing, she sold a book called Modestly right before she took off her hijab publicly. Amena Khan still sells hijabs on her website Pearl Daisy. Hanan Tehailli used to call her brand Hijabs by Hanan and used to be a hijab stylist and sold hijabs. All of them started off their careers by doing hijab tutorials and it was this that enabled their business to grow and provided many opportunities for them. We would think that in this case, their business would be severely impacted by them removing the hijab. But intriguingly, this is not the case.
