    It sounds like you answered your own question, you stated that only 53% of the reason you want to wear it is for God, the other 47% is to fit in, to show off.

    Do you understand why the hijab is worn? Do you know its history?

    You don't have to wear hijab for show off or even for God. God sees you the way he created you. Hijab is symbolic gesture. If you like to wear it then wear. If you don't then don't. More important is to dress decently. Don't wear undignified clothes.

    Hi it's me tiffany, look your never to young to wear a hijab the longer you leave it the harder it will get.
    Trust me I had a friend who wore the hijab since year 1.

    The reason you wear a hijab is to cover your beauty form the opposite gender and to be closer to god. You got a free will you can still wear it and don't worry about the reason on why your wearing it...
    It isn't bad because your thinking about it a lot and that's showing that you have a good heart that always wants to do the right thing.

    Trust me I think your reason isn't bad as your considering about it and your going through a lot of trouble... and stressing about it
    Byee
