Some have now developed it as the custom of choice. One of the problems with bondable wigs for observant Jews is the Sabbath. We have a myriad of activities that we are not allowed to perform on Shabbat and there are a number of problems with the gluing/removing process for Shabbat.<br /><br />Also, a sheitel macher once explained since observant Jewish women are wearing their wigs all day and washing often, a certain level of durability is required. She said that the lace front wigs would not last as long under these conditions.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16641319225938875919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2159784629019959112.post-24815369659623525482010-08-01T05:04:58.332-07:002010-08-01T05:04:58.332-07:00Thank you for putting up this blog. For women who ...Thank you for putting up this blog. For women who wear hair due to hairloss, your reviews and how-to's are very useful as well. <br /><br />To be honest, I didn't know about the Jewish custom to wear hair when you marry, before I started wearing hair myself due to hairloss. I would greatly appreciate it if you would explain more about this custom in a blog post. <br /><br />I mailed Milano to ask about the freedom cap, and all they could say was it has a grip material inside so you don't need clips. Also, about the "European" hair they said the hair "could be" blended with Asian hair. If hair dries up wavy, it's usually Indian - but I thought that was considered non-kosher? I would appreciate if you could shed more light on this.<br /><br />I won't buy a Milano freedom cap without having seen the interior and without knowing what hair type it is. <br /><br />Another question: many hairloss patients like to bond their wigs at the hairline. As some of us prefer European hair, we often go and see Jewish wig makers. They don't seem to provide lace caps and sometimes say their pieces can't be bonded. I think a piece can always be bonded if it has material at the edge to bond. I know for instance, that Flora makes bondable wigs. Do you think Jewish wig makers will look into this more in future, or will it stay outside of their scope for some reasons? I know some people with healthy hair also like to bond their wigs, because the HH pieces can be quite heavy and tend to slide.Rosenoreply@blogger.com
