Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

The scenario/practice in reference is against the laws of hijab. We advise that you listen to the speeches of Ulama who practice upon the Sunnah of Nabi sallaAllahu ‘alihi wa sallam and adhere to the sacred laws of Shariah.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
