A Comparative Study of Inner Neck Scarf Quality from Different Price Range among the Malaysian Consumers

Abstract

The inner neck scarf is used to grip the forehead until covering the end of the neck. Due to the many types of it in the market and the need for more information on better quality, customers buy it without knowing whether it is worth the performance offered. This study evaluates comfort properties in terms of the quality of three brands: dUCK Scarf, Naelofar Hijab, and unbranded. Comfort properties such as breathability and absorbency were tested. Its physical properties were also tested, including fabric weight, thickness, and stitch density. Naelofar Hijab's inner neck gives better breathability and absorbency testing results.
