Headcoverings for Women and Men - Excellent Customer Service!
Here you will find custom made traditional and contemporarily stylish head coverings, whether it be for religious purposes, tzniut - modesty, hair loss, or those who just love wearing hair coverings and hair accessories.
My designs can be worn by women of all faiths and backgrounds - Perfect for Synagogue, Bar/Bat Mitzvah, Bridal and Wedding Guests, Candle lightings, Kiddish, all Religious and Traditional Occasions and Casual Modest Wear.
I invite you to try my unique tying design for a better way of wearing head coverings without the hassle of pins and clips and constantly tugging at the hair covering due to slippage!
Many designs make attractive, comfortable and soft head coverings for those with hair loss due to cancer, chemotherapy, alopecia, trichotillomania or other medical conditions.
As one customer writes: "When your body is falling apart and you have no hair it is very satisfying to have something attractive to put on your head. It makes you feel pretty and whole again." Loretta

Crown of a Woman
The head covering is one of the most cherished pieces of clothing a woman possesses. With it she fulfills a great mitzvah min haTorah (Biblical commandment) and it bestows on her many exceptional side benefits that emanate from fulfilling a mitzvah (commandment) that is founded on tzniut (modesty), the most important characteristic of the Bat Yisrael (Daughter of Israel).
A woman completes her attire with head-wear that is impressive in its refinement, and reflects the regal and virtuous character of N'shei Yisrael (Women of Israel). (Mekorot 32:1)Tzniut means knowing and communicating to others that your identity equals your innermost self. Physical appearance should be designed to call attention to one’s worth and nobility, to a good soul.
May this site be an inspiration for a return to the values that have been emphasized for centuries in Jewish life. These values are summed up in the word tzniut – modesty. And these values are not only for Jews. In the times of Chazal (our Sages) even non-Jewish women covered their hair when married (Sanhedrin 58b)
Featured Styles for Purchase
head coverings are unique in design and so versatile they can be worn for casual or dress. Also great for candle-lightings and prayer. My unique tying designs are used to size the headcovering snuggly to prevent slippage while adding a beautiful & elegant touch. The extensive tiechel & snood selection in the left navigation column includes a variety of styles and fabric types from opaque to sheer, unlined to lined of various colors and designs.
- One of my newest design is the Mimkhatah, which is Hebrew for Kerchief. This headcovering design is very simple to wear and includes my unique tying designs for easy sizing - so lightweight you will forget you have it on! Many fabrics and colors to choose from!
- a variety of quality lace fabrics with either beading trim, Venise trim or untrimmed edges. Many veils are available in the regular triangular, oval or round cut.
- Add a touch of elegance and enwrap yourself in the Shabbat (Sabbath), or any special day, with the beauty of an elegant shawl! Specializing in long full shawls patterned after the ancient lacy head coverings and shawl coverings. These shawls also make beautiful large head coverings for candle lightings and prayer! I hope, b'ezrat HaShem, to be offering kosher tallit (prayer shawls) with tzitzit in the near future.
- unique in design and texture, absolutely beautiful on! Many kippah designs can be worn by both men and women. Great for all occasions and is a great start for the women wishing to observe the laws of headcovering during prayer in some form but have not yet committed to total coverage. Also makes wonderful gifts for the family members of the Bar/Bat Mitzvah and/or as a very special gift for the Bar/Bat Mitzvah! Many kippot come with a small comb sewn inside (or matching kippah clips by request).
- The hat section offers fashionable yet comfortable modest hats unique in design to accommodate hair worn up underneath of the hat. I hope to offer many more designs in the near future, and if possible restock those that have sold out - so please check back often!
- are great for anyone who likes wearing headband head coverings. I originally designed my headband styles as a head covering accessory, but many designs have become popular for wearing just as a hair accessory/head covering itself. I will soon have listed pictures of how some headbands are really gorgeous worn over a snood or tiechel for those who wish to add a pretty touch to a favorite head covering or wear as an accessory with many head coverings listed. These may be offered in sets in the near future.
- are garments that blend dignity with pleasantness. As Shlomo HaMelech (King Solomon) states in describing the clothing of the Eshet Chayil (Woman of Valor),
"She dresses in clothes of strength and regality" (Mishlei/Prov. 31:25).
And as Chazal states,
"Strength lies in conforming with the ordinances of the Torah" (Shir HaShirim Rabbah 2:10).
These two the Eishet Chayil combines with absolute harmony - her clothes are an embodiment of strength, as they fulfill to perfection the requirements of the Torah. Her clothes are aesthetically pleasing and eminently tasteful.
A variety of Hebrew / Scriptural art of traditional Jewish themes demonstrating Jewish concepts and values. All are framed and ready to hang or stand. Make great gifts and a wonderful addition to your Judaic collection!
