Overkill?

Are these sorts of styles one step (or a few..) too far or just an expression of originality?

Honestly, I won`t wear them myself (too much hassle :b ) but they do look good on these ladies. perhaps if they`d tone down the makeup a bit, it`d attract less attention, say like the `natural look` ? :D

I agree.

The scarves don't bother me, but there is far too much make-up. It's a little gross, actually. Even on a non-hijabi.

The brown one in the middle is nice, but the other two are a bit much, especially the one at the top.

Hmm, the last two are pretty but I don't have the patience to try these styles =P

Totally overkill. I just think EW when I see these styles. Only online since I haven't been in Egypt recently! PHEW

Horrible colours and make up. I call that kind of make up for 2arabic make up" coz they look this horrible when they get married in arabic countries, they seem to think it beautiful ,I guess all cultures has their own stuff.We prefer make up that makes a woman look beautiful but you cant see she has make up.Anyway make up in nothing a sister should use outside anyway. If you do stop it, coz its haram..use it at home

The bottom two styles, less makeup. They are Omani styles the bottom ones, and soooooooo easy to to do.. Start to wrap scarf 1 like normal then put a second scarf on after a half of a wrap and then wrap the two together as if they were one, like braiding your hair but wrapping. Takes less than 2 minutes in the morning. Really easy, wallah.
