I am asking this in the Religion forum to avoid the antics of GD. Mods if you feel this isn't the right place then I apologize and please delete.



This is a some what silly question, but one I have been curious about.... Those of the Jewish faith that wear a yamaka (sp) how do they keep them in place on their head?

I wondered the same thing when I was a child ,I think they have hair pins in them. I gathered this from seeing them on t.v. so I wouldn't bank on it ,but hair pins or combs is what I would guess. But what ever it is I'm sure trying to keep the law is 100% harder than trying to keep a yamaka on your head.
But I would be shocked if there's a yamaka wearing Jewish person on the AR15 Religion forum, I was never around a Jewish person when I was a child ,and had this question came to mind... Now that I'm grown I don't think I would ask ,but that's me.

Thanks. Born and raised in rural Kansas my exposure to Jewish culture is very limited.

That was the extent of my knowledge on the subject. They're also called a kippah and they break in. (Which apparently is good news if you're bald as I am. )

It just sits on the head. the Pin is just to makes sure it does not fall to the ground.

Generally a hair clip or a bobby pin. On some bald guys it's suction.
The Orthodox usually wear hats and the women often wear wigs.
