Ive taken pics as it was easier than trying to explain! This scarf isnt really big enough, but it gives you the jist, my hair is in a bun. Appologies for the vast expanse of back flesh - we are having a late heatwave! Tie the scarf under your hair [img]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k216/ruthbale/008-2.jpg[/img] Then tie it again over the point [img]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k216/ruthbale/009-1.jpg[/img] Then tuck the ends under [img]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k216/ruthbale/010-1.jpg[/img] With hair loose and a larger scarf you can get the looser look more like the ones on that website, but personally I won't spend that much as I'm stingy Edited October 3, 2011 by faithcecelia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmaD2006 Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I like the ones from headcoverings by Deborah. They look a bit for classier/formal i.e. not the bandanna nor the simple hairnet look. I was just wondering if anyone on here has worn one (before I invest in one). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lisa Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 (edited) I also found these headcoverings beautiful. They have scarves (with directions for tying in different ways) and snoods, [url="http://www.tznius.com/cgi-bin/group.pl?id=14"]http://www.tznius.com/cgi-bin/group.pl?id=14[/url] Edited October 6, 2011 by Lisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totus Tuus Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 I used to, but I don't anymore. I stopped because the meaning that it once had for me it no longer has. Unfortunately I live in a place where wearing a veil will label you very strongly as a traditionalist, and my ability to reach out to people around me is stifled by that label (even though I'm not a traditionalist by any stretch of the imagination).

[/quote] Same. I still want to cover my head in church, but I've taken to using an unobtrusive kerchief-type thing instead. My mantilla is beautiful, but it feels too ornate and showy. I will save it for special occasions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarysLittleFlower Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 (edited) I started wearing a veil at the Latin Mass, but I have to say, I'm so nervous to wear it to the OF... I want to, because I do like them a lot. But I always feel like I'm attracting attention to myself. Now in the winter, I guess I can wear a hat.. but I'm considering wearing the veil sometimes, especially if I'm at the cathedral, or a more traditional OF. I personally would love to see this custom return. Edited December 8, 2011 by MarysLittleFlower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papist Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 My wife after some praying and reflection has decided to wear a veil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FutureSister2009 Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 I know of only one person on this campus who wears one. And she is a friend of mine too so I know she wouldn't judge me for wearing one. I haven't quite felt comfortable enough yet here to wear one. Hopefully I will soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I started I was nervous but now I can't imagining going to church without one. I thoroughly recommend you try it out, at least just once.

[/quote] I was very, very surprised when we moved that no one at our new parish veiled, particularly because Father is very traditional and even says most Masses ad orientum. At the parish we left, there was a small group who all started veiling around the same time and one lady who had been doing it since I started attending that parish several years earlier. I had started just shortly before they did. I was just getting to know them when we moved, so I don't know what inspired them to start, though I would've loved to find out.

I almost feel like I should walk around with my hand covering my head or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
