Just recently I went to a sheitel sale and ran into a kallah that I know for a long time. To be honest, I’d never have thought she would be covering her hair – her family has always been very MO. My point is that a lot of young ladies, such as this one, who 15+ years ago wouldn’t have covered their hair, are now doing so because they don’t have to look weird to do so. Hats, tichels etc are lovely in the neighborhood, but for those of us who work in the secular world, we have to fit in somewhat. However, on the otherhand, $3,000 is outrageously expensive. I could buy a car for that much, or pay a good chunk of my kids’ tuitions. That’s the part that has gotten out of hand.
