Description
Why do Orthodox Jewish women cover their hair? Why the wigs, the scarves and the hats? Is it a Torah thing, a Bible thing or a fashion thing?
For years, people everywhere I go have asked me about my head scarves. It's like my business card! So in this video I'm answering all of it: why Jewish women cover their hair only after marriage, what modesty really means, and why a woman's hair becomes something private between her and her husband.
We'll talk about the options (a tichel or head scarf, a sheitel or wig, hats and caps), sheitel vs. tichel and how women choose between them, and why it can feel like wearing a crown. I'll also clear up the myth that Orthodox Jewish women shave their heads, share how wig stylists in our community are helping cancer patients, and answer the million-dollar question: if it's about modesty, why wear such a beautiful wig?
Whether you are Jewish and learning more about your heritage or simply curious about what Judaism has to offer, I welcome you here. We are all children of one G-d.
Have I answered your questions? Tell me what you're still curious about in the comments!

HI, I’M RIVKA MALKA
Thanks for being here!
I’m a Jewish educator, speaker, blogger and Transformation Coach, and the Founder of The Redemption School of Coaching and Transformation, Redemption Retreats and SoulShine Coaching.
There’s a gift inside of us that is so big it can nourish the world. There is something for us to teach, to be and to embody that is literally the purpose of our existence.
I help women go beneath the surface and walk through the fire as they grow into the leaders they were meant to be—cultivating inner wisdom, understanding our purpose and seeing how our situation is preparing us for the great future G-d has in mind for us.
The women I work with are passionate about growth and self-awareness. All women are leaders—some in their office, some in their home and some of entire cities. We’re emotionally healthy, creative, big dreamers and, above all, committed to living lives of purpose.
Through my videos and programs, women catapult their business or personal life into realms of influence, impact and inspiration. They change their marriages, heal from trauma, release resentment, find freedom from limiting beliefs and deepen their connection to G-d.
It’s time to literally reinvent yourself.
