Well wearing the hijab is faraz (compulsory) so you would be committing a major sin.
And, people should remember that hijab is not just a protection from guys, but from a girl's nafs (ego) as well. It should prevent girls from having to spend hours in front of the mirror doing her hair. But, unfortunately, you see girls in front of the mirror for hours doing their hijab as they would do their hair, with all sorts of elaborate braids and the like. I wanted to go up to a sister and say "Is your hijab naturally curly?"
Well, the point to remember is that some people make an effort to wear hijab, but it is futile, because it is not fulfilling it's purpose. It's like using an umbrella with holes in it. Hijab is used for protection from guys as well as from the girl herself, and should not be used as an accessory or for beautifying one's self; for the hijab itself beautifies.

“Whoever puts his trust in Allah, sufficient is Allah for him.”
This was just posted on another topic by one of the mods
The Qur'an - An-Nur 24:30
Tell the believing men to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts, etc.). That is purer for them. Verily, Allâh is All-Aware of what they do.
And tell the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts, etc.) and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent (like palms of hands or one eye or both eyes for necessity to see the way, or outer dress like veil, gloves, head-cover, apron, etc.), and to draw their veils all over Juyubihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms, etc.) and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, their fathers, their husband's fathers, their sons, their husband's sons, their brothers or their brother's sons, or their sister's sons, or their (Muslim) women (i.e. their sisters in Islâm), or the (female) slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants who lack vigour, or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex. And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And all of you beg Allâh to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful.

It is not mentionned, but 1 day of the hereafter is like (i think) 80,000 years.
But u gotta be aware of wer ur gettin this type of info from, cos i know many Deshi Imams spreading so much bid'ah (innovations) to Islam, and they are making ppl go astray.
there is a bracket which says women should cover 'faces' ,
tell me, did Allah REVEAL THE WORD in the verse - "FACES" ,
and beware that to tell a lie against Allah is a very grave sin.
OK, chill out.
It's not fardh (cumpulsory) to cover the face, but it is desirable (mustahab).
But at times it is actually better to cover the face....u know what i mean?
Cos me havin reached maturity, i have experienced times wen i should have lowered my gaze, and if that person was wearing a veil, then it wud have been easier for me......
