Is Hijab Cosplay Permissible in Islam?

Assalamu alaikum everyone! I’ve noticed many sisters doing cosplay while wearing hijab, arranging it to look like different characters’ hairstyles. I really admire their creativity, but they get a lot of criticism. Some folks say it’s not allowed even though their awrah is fully covered. Is that correct? Also, does styling the hijab to mimic hair make it invalid as a proper hijab? Jazakum Allahu khairan for any insights.

Honestly, I’d avoid making it look like hair because hijab is meant to conceal beauty, not imitate it. But I’m no scholar!

As long as you're not attracting the wrong attention, I don't see the issue. creativity is a gift from Allah.

Styling it to look like hair could defeat the purpose of hijab, no? Just my thought, but Allah knows best.
