What wigs were intended for Women look much better with wigs. I thought they were for modesty but more men look at those with gorgeous hair Reply

Exceptional! Mrs. Jacobson, this talk was one of the high points of all my years of learning!

In 2001, right after Sept 11, I took my 15-year-old daughter to a community psalm-reading for the 9/11 victims. During the event, a rebbetzin from my Torah-observant community ascended the podium to remark that, "Just like in the 1940s, we can thank the non-observant Jews for the tragedies befalling us."

I recall clearly that my daughter and I looked at each other in sadness and bewilderment. Our Rebbe had never spoken this way about a fellow Jew, and we were unused to such a critical, polarizing assessment.

Since then, I have been waiting to hear what my daughter and I SHOULD HAVE heard that night. So I thank you for the story at the end of the video: the story of a different sort of 1940s Jew who described his Jewish brethren with such loving oneness, “young, old, bearded, clean-shaven, bewigged, bare-headed”—all of them united in their heartfelt Shema Yisrael. Thank you! Reply

Synthetic Hair Wigs Look Good I look just fine in my synthetic hair wigs. Really. Truly. They only cost about fifty dollars online. Just google. Anybody can look great in a wig, and afford a wig. It doesn't have to be human hair. And so easy-care, too. I am so happy I finally got the courage to wear one. I look so much better.

Scarves are fine too but I love my wigs.

Joy in a mitzvah! No harm in that. Reply
