    TLDR Wearing a hijab doesn't affect scalp health if worn dry and without existing scalp issues.
    A study conducted on scalp hydration and pH values found no significant differences between hijab-wearing and non-hijab-wearing women. The findings suggest that wearing a hijab does not impair the scalp barrier, provided there is no history of underlying scalp and skin disorders and the hijab is not worn in wet conditions.
