Hijab has become a necessity for Muslim female customers. Hijab products are various as they are used not only as a cover but also increase their confidence since hijab fashion does not have to be left behind by non-hijab fashion. The interest in buying a premium hijab may be due to its utilitarian or hedonic nature. This paper examines the differences between the importance of utilitarian and hedonic values on evidence of buying intention of hijab from Indonesia. This research employs explanatory research by collecting 400 Muslim female respondents in West Java. The data processing method uses a scoring with a Likert scale. The structural Equation Model (SEM) is used to analyze the data by applying SEM-PLS. The results show that both the utilitarian values and the hedonic values simultaneously do not affect the buying intention. Instead, they partially give a significant effect on the buying intention. This could be translated that Muslim women in Indonesia are competing in seeking the values of their faith and need emotional satisfaction in their daily activities.
