Use any and all pronouns including neo and it/it's
While I was googling different types of veiling and head coverings across cultures I came across these terms. I gathered both terms refer to the same type of headcovering. Someone can correct me if I am wrong. Where can I learn more info about it and what is the purpose of wearing it? From my understanding it is worn in the middle east to protect from sun exposure. Is that all? Are there different ways of wearing it depending on different situations? Does it differ from country to country how it is worn and what it looks like? What country or countries wear it anyway?

Tagging @Debater Slayer cuz i know he's in the middle east tho I dont know if his country wears it. I just came across the term today just now bout to do more googling in a sec so i just want to read more on it out of curiosity.
