Why is it that a women who wears a modest snood on shabbos gets dirty looks and jeers from other Lakewood woman who strut about with their $3,000 custom wigs? Why did my wife even have one woman come up to her and tell her that “this isn’t an israeli kibutz and its not shabosdik to wear a snood”
Aren’t we forgetting why we cover our hair in the first place? to be modest. Isn’t a nice fabric covering FAR more modest than a wig that can’t even be distinguished from the wearers original hair, and in some cases, is even better looking and far less modest.
