Secondly, there is consensus among the Ulema of the Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaa, that a Womans hair is part of what must be covered in Hijaab.
Just because it is a common practice in some Countries doesn't make it automatically Islamically acceptable. The way some of the Women wear it in different parts of the World is more cultural then religious.
And Allah subhanna wa ta'ala knows best.

Well, there are scholars who disagree with that based on the evidence too.
And that's the exact point that I'm making. Just because dressing head to toe in a black burkha is common practice in some Arab countries, doesn't mean it's the only Islamic way.
A shalwar kameez and a dupatta draped loosely on your head so that your chest is covered is still a form of purdah.
