Appropriate Swimwear For Bibiyan

[Guest Kaur1]

Hi All

I came across this swim wear range and wanted sangats advice whether it is suitable/appropriate in your opinion for a Singhni to wear this during swimming?

Currently I wear swimming leggings, a full sleeved swimming top, remove dastar and tie a patka but obviously this does not help to keep Kesh dry; swimming cap is a no no as it won't fit over my joora and patka and big head

Your hair will still get wet in a nylon hijab. One wonders why they make such things, considering all that figure hugging swimming gear rather defeats the purpose of a hijab.

All that will come of wearing it is that you will look Muslim.

Appropriate swimwear for a Singhni? Stay at home.

I am, of course, joking. Seriously. Just messing.

After go home and dry your hair. No reason to look like a Muslim lol.

When I swim I just wear my dumala etc and wash my hair when I get home and dry the hair either with a blow dryer or fan dry it.

Sports Hijab suitable/appropriate for a Singhni - probably not in my humble opinion.

Are you trying to keep your hair dry? Cause swimming will tend to get your hair yet no matter what, unless your doggy paddling lol.

Why not try this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Speedo-Long-Hair-Cap/dp/B00C3LL5U8

I wear boyleg swimsuit it covers my kacherra fine speedo do a great range which are modest without being bulky and encumbering...I tie my dastar round my waist under the suit and put a swim cap on as chlorine is pretty harsh on Kesh , tip put extra oil on hair beforehand makes washing chlorine out easier. Kanga stays in jooda fine . makes easier to use goggles as well . Sikhi is practical if you cannot move you will not develop swimming strength and speed so cover up enough , no one is going to pay attention to your legs or arms .

Another thing I remembered from the boys swimming lessons not all pool managers are cool for dastars to be worn as is in the pool so you can wear a patka with a cap I used aquasphere hats as they are more comfy and thicker edged so easier to pull over , cover ears nicely

What do you guys do about your sarbloh shastars? I haven't gone swimming in ages because I'm scared my kirpan will get rusty.

I come home switch my gatra and Kirpan for a day or so. I leave the wet Kirpan open for about a day. Then I clean it and it looks like new
