Abstract

This study aims to analyze the self-representation of hijab-wearing female vape users (hijaber vapers) in Banda Aceh, a city governed by Islamic law and dominated by conservative social norms. This phenomenon highlights the symbolic tension between religious imagery embodied by the hijab and the modern lifestyle associated with vaping. Using a qualitative case study approach, this research is grounded in symbolic interactionism theory by George Herbert Mead. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation involving hijab-wearing women aged 18–25 who actively vape. The findings reveal that hijaber vapers perceive vaping as a form of self-expression, personal identity construction, and symbolic resistance to societal expectations. Despite social stigma and moral judgment, they negotiate their identities by separating the meaning of religiosity from lifestyle choices. This study concludes that the self-representation of hijaber vapers is shaped through a dynamic interplay between individual agency and social control, offering new perspectives on how young Muslim women navigate identity in a religious society.
