I would wear a teichel for going to work, but otherwise..on went the sheitel. Only when we made aliyah did I change the sheitel for a hat or teichel.<br />I will tell you a funny story about a sheitel... It was picture day in our school. One of the pre school teachers always wore a very short sheitel, but for this day she wore a gorgeous long sheitel. When she walked into the classroom one of her little 4 year old girls said Mrs K....how did you grow your hair so long overnight, is it magic? That was the last time she changed her sheitel style in school.Miriamhttp://miriamswords.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476955.post-63889424278126617382012-01-05T08:40:57.398+02:002012-01-05T08:40:57.398+02:00Sarah, no doubt your're right.

I'd need a room for hats if I had hard ones instead of scarves and soft ones.<br /><br />Leora, even when the Israeli companies export to the states they don't send the soft comfy ones. There are so many fantastic hat stores here.<br /><br />LL, I feel younger in a scarf and get recognized by people who knew me decades ago.Batyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476955.post-12767627844689459042012-01-05T04:05:09.869+02:002012-01-05T04:05:09.869+02:00For some reason, I am not accustomed to wearing ha...For some reason, I am not accustomed to wearing hats. When I lived in Israel I wore tichels/mitpachot, but now, in galut, I wear a (gasp!) sheitel, because (ok, WRONG reason) it makes me feel and look younger.Lady-Lighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04992305067771885711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476955.post-17582773262915827882012-01-05T03:56:53.649+02:002012-01-05T03:56:53.649+02:00You can get much better soft hats in Israel than y...You can get much better soft hats in Israel than you can here, in Galut. I love the hat you are wearing in that third photo, the one with tan and black. I was trying to convince a shopkeeper to get some Israeli soft hats (and get ones in colors - argh on the all black). I'll have to bring in the two I own to show her. I went to a hat shop in Tsfat on my last trip to Israel. I could have bought the whole store.Leorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12303493764579879710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476955.post-20161653177587752642012-01-05T02:21:31.711+02:002012-01-05T02:21:31.711+02:00good tutorials. i have more hats and scarves than ...good tutorials. i have more hats and scarves than space to store them all currently! it's a problem :) but probably the total of most of them doesn't even add up to the price of a sheitel.Sarah Likes Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15055831838215589183noreply@blogger.com
