    The point of covering the hair is to avoid vanity. Wearing wigs as a “ head covering” is all about vanity. This wig tradition skirts the spirit of the law.

      I respect the tradition, but this video still does not help me understand the reason to wear a wig. If the tradition states to cover your hair for modesty, then how is wearing a wig (a beautiful long luscious one at that) respect that tradition ? Not showing your hair to the outside world, but wearing a beautiful wig is ok? How do people know it’s even a wig? Wouldn’t simply wearing a turban wrap, snood or scarf make more sense? I’m sorry, I’m not trying to be disrespectful, I’m really trying to understand.

    I'm not sure I understand the idea of wearing a wig. If you are told to cover your hair, I understand that completely -- meaning to cover your head with a scarf, hat, etc. And by wearing a scarf, it says you are a married woman. As a married woman, how does anyone else know that you're wearing a wig? You can say you are. To me a scarf would outwardly acknowledge your faith and the fact you are married. To me a wig just doesn't do it. And 3000 years ago, the woman would wear a head covering - not a wig.

      It’s not as much an outward symbol of being married but more that it’s something you do for yourself and your religion when you are married. Wearing a scarf or a noticeable wig can show that you are married, just like wearing wedding rings everyday shows it, but the ring was only necessary for the actual marriage ceremony and married people can choose not to wear them after but just because your don’t see it, like a good natural looking wig, doesn’t mean they aren’t married. Jewish law says a married woman must cover their natural hair. There are a few interpretations based on where the Jews lived during the diaspora, when the Jews were kicked out of ancient Israel in around 70 AD. In the Ashkenazi community, Jews from Eastern Europe, it is interpreted that a wig can count as a hair covering since it does cover your natural hair as much as a headscarf would. This confuses a lot of people since the only references most people have regarding covering your hairs is Muslim women covering their hair for modesty. Modesty isn’t the reason married Jewish women cover their hair so they can look and feel as beautiful as they want in which every way that might be, as a wig or a headscarf, as long as their natural hair is covered. Hope this helps!

      You are 100% right but what the woman who made this video doesn't say is that many Jewish women for that reason do not wear wigs because many Orthodox Jews particularly those of European background almost never acknowledge the even the existence of millions of Jews of Middle Eastern background with completely different customers and traditions which are many say accurate and representative of ancient custom

    I used to wear wigs ("human hair" apparently). I stopped for ethical and personal reasons. One on the biggest questions for me on wearing someone else's hair : hair has STRONG spiritual ties to their owner, how do you feel comfortable wearing someone else's hair while being religious ? What do you believe your God thinks of you wearing the hair that doesn't belong to you ? These questions are really important to me since I strongly believe in the spiritual essence that hair has. Hair are antennas, it conveys the owner's personal energy.
    I remember people in India, Africa etc use to burn their shedded hair to avoid anybody doing which craft with it.

      The woman in the video IS religious, she wears wigs because her God asked her to cover her hair. How can she consider hair like an "item of clothing" if her beliefs explain that hair is important. 🤨 Hair is way more than that, it's a form of communication, it's an extension of yourself, it's a protection.

      Muslim women cover not only their hair but dress modestly. These rules are different for each religion. It's not only a hair thing. Muslim men also have rules of covering their body and grow a beard, but it's different for a woman for obvious reasons, built differently. Why covering is important is because you see each other more objectively. In Islam it's not about a man being superior to a woman. We don't believe that. That's something the western media made people believe so. And we don't have hair covering with hair. Hope this explains it somewhat.

      Hair covering predates Islam by quite a long time. In ancient times, the fallen angels found human women very attractive and our hair was one of the things that made them lust for human women. They would sin and have sexual relations with human women creating an unholy union resulting in what the Bible calls “the Nephilim”. They were the ancient giants. The Arab and other Middle Eastern men put hijabs on the women in order to make them less attractive to the fallen angels to protect them. I am not sure how the tradition started for Jewish women though.

      Wearing wigs is a modern day, manmade custom. God commands us to shun vanity and the lust of the flesh. We are born with a sinful nature and we must overcome the desires of the carnal man. Vanity is a huge problem for women, so covering our hair in public is our way to defeat the heart's desire to exalt self. This cannot be accomplished by wearing a beautiful wig, but by wearing a scarf. Every person must battle with self if they are going to become like God. God's command is to act humble and be modest, so this is the true reason why we Jewish women cover our hair with a tichel (scarf).
      Study every Scripture covering the topic of vanity, lust, and self exaltation and you will grasp the idea of wearing a scarf.

    I believe they are misinterpreting the Law (Torah). Being COVERED means women should have hair and NOT cut it down like men do. Your literal OWN hair IS the covering. It's one of the many things that make women women. Also, you could say that after the watchers mated with human women, there was a command that they cover the hair as to not attract them with their beauty. Long flowing hair being one of the attractors of these watchers. Thus covering hair with hair, would defeat the purpose of the command and a SCARF would make more sense.
    And God will bless you even if you had NO HAIR. He cares more about the content of your character (treating your neighbor as yourself) rather than the hair strands HE put on your head and gave you. He gave you hair.... just remember that you are his perfect design. He wouldn't dare withhold his blessings even if you decided to show your hair.😊

      No form nor comeliness ; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
      He is despised and rejected of men; a men of sorrows , and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised and we esteemed him not.
      Surely he hath borne our grief , and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
      But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
      All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

      He was oppressed , and he was afflicted , yet he opened not his mouth : he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter , and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openers not his mouth.

      From judgment: and who shall declare this generation? For
      He was cut off out of the land of the living: for he was cutting off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
      And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence , neither was any deceit in his mouth.
      Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him ; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin he shall see his seed , he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
      He shall see of the travail of his soul , and shall be satisfied : by
      His knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many ; for he shall bear their iniquities.

      In the New Testament it tells us that a woman's hair is her glory and that she has power because it's long and uncut. Many Apostolic women have laid their long hair over their seriously I'll child while they prayed. It says that if a woman has short hair she might as well be shaved because she is basically dishonoring God if she's praying with her hair uncovered. I'm not explaining it very well, but Lee Stoneking has a book about it. I lost 30-40% of my hair due to cancer and complications related to it and the rest was severely damaged, snapped off if you barely touched it. I stood in front of the bathroom mirror and cried as I chopped it short, but it had to be done to save the rest and by then I was wearing a wig anyway. It wasn't flattering at all, too dark and heavy but it was the only long one the cancer support agency had at the time and since I am Apostolic Pentecostal I needed a longer one. I wore it for a while until I could buy a somewhat better one at a local beauty supply store. After about six months I switched to scarves or hats bc the wig was too hot for a Midwestern USA summer is and by then my hair was in better shape and growing back. Fast forward five years and I am cancer free plus you can't tell I ever lost so much hair; it's longer and thicker than it has been in years.

    isn’t covering your head a modesty requirement? Why cover your own hair with …hair? Where’s the modesty? Older Orthodox women wear hats and scarves and perhaps a wig of little beauty. They show the modesty aspect. You either go with the laws of Torah or you don’t. However, to “tweak” the laws and find loopholes to suit your egotistical needs seems far from what Torah teaches. To each their own. There is little point to be known as Orthodox when, clearly, boundaries have been moved for the sake of human ego.

      It IS about modesty. Our hair is only for our husband because it becomes a private part of our body when we marry.

We are supposed to be powerful (influential) and modest. Wearing the wig allows us to do both:)

    Coming from an Orthodox Jew, this practice removes the spirit from the rule. If Jewish women are told to have a hair covering, then wearing a wig is contradictory to the intention of the law.

    First, thank you for sharing and enlightening us. I grew up Apostolic Pentecostal and was taught to always cover our head/hair for similar reasons (spiritual reasons). The difference is we are taught to cover whether married or not and especially in the house of God. Speaks to the fact that what you are saying is not so strange and is rooted from somewhere although we cannot fully explain. Another difference is we have to wear hats or wraps rather than wigs. Personally, i am very keen on who touches my head even when i didnt necessarily practice my faith. Your head is your crown and should be guarded. Again, thank you as I was always intrigued to learn about the Jewish faith.

    Covering your hair is prominent in many religions and in many different ways. Catholics cover their hair when they attend mass, nuns cover their hair (or use to) as part of their devotion. Muslim women cover their hair, Hindu is the same, Sikh as well. Less so these days, but it use to be. Buddhist nuns shave and cover their heads.

      @shternaraskin7706 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The reason we cover our hair is simply bec the commandment is for our hair to be covered. (Yes, there are also many beautiful kabbalistic explanations) but it is Not for modesty or avoiding vanity. And it doesn't matter how we cover our hair; all that matters is that it is covered. So no, wearing a wig is not a loophole.
      The reason why Raizel and most Chabad women take care to cover their hair with a wig is bec the Lubavitcher Rebbe preferred a wig in that it's most likely to keep all the hair covered (thereby adding more blessing to the family among other reasons) and can't/won't be easily removed, revealing the hair underneath. So many Chabad women go to great lengths to wear a wig as a head covering, rather than a headscarf. (At home/in privacy though, we can wear a headscarf).

Not everything needs to be seen through your narrow lense of what modesty, beauty, femininity and sexuality is. Women are not responsible for mens sexuality.

      I don't know about Old Testament, but in the New Testament, Christian women are instructed to cover their head as a sign of submission to God's order of creation. "Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head. But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head..." - 1 Corinthians 11:4-5. So in the Christian faith, it's not necessarily a modesty thing. But there are Christian women who wear head coverings for modesty as well.

      The Old Testament comes from the Jewish religion. It was for the Jews. The NEW TESTAMENT, which was a result of the teachings of Jesus Christ, is for Christians.(This was why the Pharisees did not like the new teachings and helped to crucify the Christ, as He challenged their power and way of life.)
      It may be that the Old Testament god is not even the same as the God that Christ spoke of, but a demi-god.

      With all the respect Barnowl there is many verses that talked about Jesus and pointed him as the messiah Isaiah , Micah, Daniel, Jeremiah, all those prophets talked about Jesus but also on the same Bible Jesus knew that he will be rejected by the Pharisees not because he challenged the law but because he didn’t agree on how they added more to the Torah and put weight ( more rules) on the people of Israel
      Religion makes you create your own path instead of Gods along.

      @@threewomenco. The New Testament was written by the early Christians, who were converted to Christianity from Jewism, but also from other societies. It is a different mind-set and life experience to that of Jewism. Yes, the Jews pointed him out to be the coming Messiah who was Jeremiah etc. but that does not mean that He was. A Messiah comes approximately every 2,000 years and the Christ, Who promised to come again, will return sometime soon, hopefully by the end of this century. The Christ is not God himself. He is the first human to reach the fifth Initiation of Resurrection and Ascension and what it truly means spiritually. Christ is the son/sun of God, that greater God, about 'which naught may be said' because He is transcendent and cannot be explained in the words of wo/men. I have been studying religion and spirituality for many years and most of religion does not have an understanding of deeper, esoteric spirituality .The reappearance of The Christ, Who may not come through religion, will change this.

My concern is that while a wig as a hair covering seems to honor the letter of the law, to me, it feels dishonest-- it's not honouring the spirit of the law. Beauty isn't only aesthetic, and I see this as an act that embraces pride. If one must have nice hair to make themselves feel good, then is it truly a mitzvah?
