Dear Ladies, as a man in his 20s I can assure you that veils don't look old or embarrassing on young women. It looks actually really good and admirable on every young woman! Don't be afraid of wearing one!
I'm new to the church and prefer traditionalism. I wanted to start veiling, but was self conscious, your comment made me feel better about veiling. Thank you.
@@ashledashnaw2575 Seriously, go for it. It looks just soooooo good on every young woman!
@@LB-gu3wq I wouldn't call myself young really. I'm 29
@@ashledashnaw2575 You are 29 and a beautiful young woman, because God's beauty is in every part of his creation! And you are just at the beginning of your journey! 29 is an amazing and exciting age! You got this! Glory be to God for your age! At every age God gives us great gifts: To the old God gives wisdom, to the middle aged people God gives leadership (fathers and mothers) and to the Young God gives joy and patience and faithfulness and I could go on for ever!
@@LB-gu3wq thank you. That's so sweet
A priest once shared that the church veils what is beautiful, mysterious, and life-giving. Women fit these categories!!
"We should be veiling for Christ". Beautiful.
veiling is a beautiful expression of reverence.
I’m surprised veiling isn’t more popular.
It should be a requirement since it's litterly a sin to not do it
@@evancawley3236 it is not a sin people can do it if they want to.
@@urdad2341 since the bible tells me it is disrespectful towards God for women not to veil when in prayer, I will take that as being a sin
I started veiling for lent this year, and now I don't think I'll go back. Sometimes, I have doubts because I'm the only person in the church who does it, but I really enjoy how much it reminds me to think of and respect God.
I veil all the time because of 1 Corinthians 11:5 "but every wife who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, since it is the same as if her head were shaven." & I pray ALL DAY. 😂❤ I just recently started veiling (I was raised Catholic but my family actually wasn't very religious) & I knew that I would be judged. I get weird looks when I'm out in town, but I want to give Christ credit for everything in my life. 🥰✨️
I started to wear a veil in July of 2023. I was the only one .. I got alot of looks from the women, the men only looked and smiled my priest looked at me in a state of happiness because he understood why and who for I was wear my veil. My daughters started to wear their veils too, and because they are teenagers, both of our priest are very happy for us because we respecting our Lord JESUS and the HOLY EUCHARIST. Peace with you and let's keep wearing our veils. 🕯📿🙏🏻
As a new convert I would like to begin wearing a veil. The only thing is that I don't want to appear like I am trying to be "more catholic than the catholics" or that I am somehow trying to be superior in some way. Some in our church veil/some don't so I wouldn't be the only one.
I will start tomorrow. ❤️
@@valwhelan3533 if you have been thinking about wearing a veil is because our Lord wants you to wear one.
We are the bride ( church) of Jesus.
God bless you ❤
I started veiling during lent and it felt super weird since I've only been aware of the tlm for only a few years and I never even knew it was the tradition to cover our heads. I do think it is beautiful and a wonderful way to imitate our Lady ❤. Recently, I stopped wearing my veil because I've been feeling discouraged, but you've inspired me to continue veiling so I will try again.
I cheer you up, sister! 🌷
I started just before lent and best thing I done. We need to be the generation that is strong Catholics
when I started veiling a few months ago, I was super nervous abt it (I attend a small NO parish) but its true noone really cares tbh. I had to keep that mindset of "I'm not doing it for them, I'm doing it for Him". but now I look forward to veiling on Sundays and I would feel super weird w/o wearing one. originally one of my guy friends suggested I try veiling and I came across your other video on veiling and that was the encouragement that I needed to just do it :).
Thank you so much for this. I’m thinking about converting to Catholicism and want to start veiling.
Yeyy go for it
I do not veil - but veiling is something - I am seeing more and more!
I’m thinking about veiling!! It looks so beautiful! I really love and respect Jesus so I think I’m gonna do it ☺️🫶🏾💕✝️
We always used to get asked, "where is that in the bible?" Here is a case where we do something that clearly is in the bible, at 1 Cor. 11.
It's so refreshing to see a revival of our beautiful traditions. God bless your channel.
I veiled as a child, then the Norvus Ordo took over. I started veiling when I stumbled into a beautiful old style church with statues to match and the awesomeness of the Tridentine Latin Mass!!
As a man, I can say that I *do* care about veiling - but in a positive way. I admire the women who have the courage to express their faith by veiling. So, my message to women who may feel self-conscious about veiling is this: Your choice to veil is a wake-up call to me. Thank you, Religious Hippie, for this top-notch video and clear explanations. Know of my prayers for you and this CZcams ministry. God bless you.
I was very nervous when I started veiling about a year ago( it’s ok if at first it feels strange or weird) but as time went on I felt more and more comfortable with it, now I feel weird without it at church. My spiritual awakening included starting to veil and now I recommend it so much. At this point I truly don’t care what people think about it, all I know is that that grace that is expressed outwardly with it is beautiful and I admire anyone that is willing to at least try it.
I started veiling during lent this year and I have kept with it! I definitely felt self conscious at first as I do not go to TLM and there is only a few ladies who regularly veil at my parish. But like Amber said, people do not really care that you are wearing a veil! If anything they will be inspired to veil too! I have only ever received compliments on my veil or me wearing a veil in general. I think it is a beautiful tradition and I am glad I have started to partake in it!
I am a protestant and i want to start veiling💓
I am much older then the usual group her..but veiling is beautiful!
I grew up having to veil at church..into my teens. If you forgot your veil...the sisters were there to give you a tissue and a bobby pin.
This is something Vatican ll should have kept!
Vatican II didn’t get rid of veiling. It started going away on its own and the 1983 CIC codified that it wasn’t a requirement anymore.
I am starting to veil bc of this video and thank you
Veiling for women in the church is a good and beautiful tradition. It shows humility and love to our Lord, present in the tabernacle and in the holy Eucharist. Also, most young women underestimate their power over men regarding attracting their attention and so, in church, distracting their attention from the Lord. This danger is mostly avoided through modest clothing and veiling. Thanks Amber for the great video & God bless
as a christian who veil before but i stopped last year but i am starting to veil again especially worshiping god i do want to go to church but my family never let me go to church i am glad to see this video i used to be afraid that people would see me even my friends who wasnt used to seeing me veil and my family. i was so scared by wearing veil because i felt like i was disrespecting muslims but now i understand my culture and my religion and that i shouldnt be scared to veil becaue all it matters is that i love god :]
Love this!
OH MY GOODNESS THIS IS JUST WHAT I NEEDED
Nice, thanks for educating...
I LOVE your cross chain!
Veiling is reverence which is why it's beautiful.
I go to an alliance church and I'm the only woman that veils. I started feeling called to around Easter so I'm still pretty new to it but it gets more comfortable as I keep going! I wasn't raised catholic and I don't plan to convert, but I really appreciate my catholic and orthodox sisters in christ that veil and talk about it online
I was raised Alliance - now a new Catholic convert and would like to begin veiling. Some in our church do/some don't.
I’ve never been this early 😭! An honor 💗
I've actually just started to wear a head covering all the time. Sometimes it's just a hat if it's cold. At other times it's a triangle scarf I tie under my hair. I think we are all different in what we choose to wear and how we interpret 1 Corinthians 11.
Is it necessary to veil outside church?
@@priyastephen03it’s not necessary, but if it’s a personal decision then God has absolutely no problem with it! I would recommend looking like “Christian veiling styles” plus they play into modesty 🎉
I have neon pink hair which is distracting so I plan on veiling. Not many people at my home parish veil but I do plan on visiting a traditional Latin mass where veiling is done. I got a starter scarf from Walmart but I have a beautiful one in my Amazon cart.
Thank you! This is for me 😂🤣
I love my veil! ^_^❤💕
Lace infinity veils aren't very heavy, but they do get caught on everything, lol. I also use bobby pins to secure my veil. There are also a lot of Catholic Etsy and Instagram shops for veils!
Versailles by Lilly this is a Catholic online billing store they have a lot of sales some are handmade here or at least finish in the USA
When I was very very young, I remember my mother, grandmother and aunties putting the veils over their heads for Mass. but as I grew up, it stopped. I recently saw one woman who put a lace veil on her head for Mass, and it reminded me so much of my dear mother, that I commented to her and asked about it. She was very flattered and said that it is a tradition that they still use back in her village in Europe. As much as I like it, I would feel too awkward as no one else does it in my parish.
I recently started to wear a veil to mass, my church is a Parrish so it's a small/ medium Church size. I too felt weird but I told my self this is what I can at least do to honor and show my love to JESUS, after what he willingly did and died out of love for me.. I am wearing my veil for HIM. I was the only one wearing a veil for a month... my three teenage daughters decided to wear their veils too, both of our priest had the biggest smile and complimented us on our veils. Recently I stated to attend mass during the week, again I was the only one.. by the following week there were five ladies wearing their veils 😅👍 I guess started something good for our Lord JESUS 🙏🏻 😊 Trust me just wear it for a month (that's only on Sunday mass) you will gradually notice that your attention towards the Eucharist is more drawn towards you! 🙏🏻😊
I have a veil that my Grandma gave me. I also ordered a 2nd from Amazon today. I want to have a little collection so that I have style options.
In my very progressive hometown there is no veiling. My hole diocese is progressive (Austria). But it is interesting how other catholics live around the world.
So be bold and start!❤️🙏🏻
I just came a cross your video and thank you. I am a Christian woman, wife and mother. As a Christian woman i would like to know what your thoughts are on being a Christian woman and wearing a veil. I am working on being a godly woman wife & mother. A warrior for God. I feel like my duty is to be godly and to keep God commitment in the bible. That is just one commitment that i would like to keep sacred.
I was raised catholic but have never seen anyone veiling in any church I've been to, and almost everyone is catholic where I live (northern Italy).
I was also wondering: Since my hair reaches my waist, would my veil have to be as long?
No, your veil doesn’t have to cover all of your hair. Just enough fabric to cover the head. It’s fine if your hair shows :)
The bible just calls it a symbol, it doesn't have to cover all Yr hair.
Covering one's head in the house of God is an ancient tradition. It is how one shows respect. Jews in the ancient world wore yamakas and still do today. Women have worn veils for centuries, too. Brides wear veils. I think veils are beautiful. I do not find it weird or even unusual in any way.
I wear veils according to the liturgical calendar, but black is always appropriate. What I wish is that someone would post a video on what kind of clips to use and how to use them. The biggest problem I have is my veil slipping off.
It is more holy and simple when using a veil and more attractive.
Thank you for your video. You answer my question about veiling. I’m starting to veiling @ Mass . Does our Lady have her own veil color?? When to wear our Lady’s veil on New Year day & month of May ???
The “white for unmarried, black for married,” is was a trend, not any sort of hard and fast rule. Jackie Kennedy brought mantillas to the US and she wore white ones, and she was married.
Like!
Hello Amber Rose I am Cynthia Rose. 🙂
As a Christian women are so attractive when they submit to the Lord, God bless all of you and continue following your Godly convictions
My wife started veiling. And was a little scared. But all she will say is: I'm just glorifying God in being obedient to my husband. If the Bible tells us something - who are we to say : I don't want to do that?
This reminds me of the channel " What Laura Likes"
i started veiling at Latin, and even if im at NO i feel nakey without one on!
Well if you are a Protestant and want to veil when no one else is, talk to your pastor. I am currently the only one who veils in my church, but other women said they are being challenged to veil.
I have hip scarfs from when I use to do belly dancing, they also work as a shawl, can I use them as a veil? Their like a triangle veil.
Yep
Hello! Bendiciones! Hats for women are not advised to wear in Church, Mass. ❤
Does anyone know what the proper name for the long, rectangular shapes veils?
Mantia. The little round ones are chapel veils.
Why don’t men wear something like a veil?
Great video
Thank you’
There is a verse in the bible that says a man who veils dishonors his head. I don't know if that's a definite reason.
Ever since I started learning about mother Mary, I thought veils wear really beautiful and unique, I may not be a women but I have started to veil while meditating in honor of Mary .
Is there any other guys hear who has tried wearing a veil ?
...because the hair instead of a covering hath been given to her...
In your own selves judge ye; is it seemly for a woman uncovered to pray to God? doth not even nature itself teach you, that if a man indeed have long hair, a dishonour it is to him? and a woman, if she have long hair, a glory it is to her, because the hair instead of a covering hath been given to her;...
-Young's Literal Translation (YLT)
A woman's long hair is the 'covering'.
In 1 Corinthians 11, it says that a man should not cover his head while praying because he was created in the image and glory of God.
@@rosemaryrais126 A man's head should
not be covered in long hair.
The priests of the Old Covenant were
required in scripture to wear turbans.
I thought it was hypocritical of me to feel so happy when I see a priest in a cassock, or when my parish added a veil to the Tabernacle, but I didn't want to be the weirdo in a chapel veil. Do I love Tradition or don't I? I try to remember to wear a hat to daily Mass. Still working on that part.
In my country, even though many people are Catholic, I never saw anyone wear a veil. I think it look beautiful, but I wouldn’t be comfortable wearing it, because in my country, for some reason, literally nobody does. I don’t know if you can even get a veil here. But it’s definitely beautiful.
You should be out to please God, not people
@@evancawley3236 … a judgemental reaction was really not necessary. I was just sharing my experience.
@@sarahrei4530 I wasn't being judgemental just trying to put it into perspective and it's what I tell my self regularly as well. No one is perfect but it can be a good thing to remind ourselfs off
@@evancawley3236 okay then, sorry for jumping into conclusions. It just sounded kinda harsh. But I get that you didn’t mean it like that. You’re right, it’s a necessary thing to remind ourselves of. But veiling is not a necessary thing (even though it’s beautiful) so that’s why I don’t see it as a problem that I don’t do it (and I probably won’t start doing it while living in my country).
@@sarahrei4530 it actually is necessary, the church doctrine say women should and so do scriptures. It's just the church is afaird to say anything about it as they are afaird they will put people of from attending church. Its a sin for a women to go to church and not wear a veil. Do with that as you will, this is ultimately up to you but I just wanted to help you to not sin.
Do you have a favorite veil shopping site?
Veil by Tradition is awesome!!!
How do you keep the veil from slipping off?
I hand sewed a hair clip on the underside on the top where one of the flower designs is more prominent to disguise the clip. It works well.
Am I the only one who can't keep a veil (or scarf) on my head? Even with a bobby pin, they just slip off. I spend the entire mass readjusting like a little kid. I'm "the hat lady" at my traditional Catholic church.
Is it disrespectful if our heads are not covered in some type of way? And why is it that men do not cover their heads?
Read 1 Corinthians 11:1-16 to find out :))
The Church covers what is holy. As a small boy I used hate the fact I was not allowed to wear my hat in Church. That was when I was ignorant and did not understand. Now I understand it's true meaning. I think it is wonderful when a woman veiled in Church.
for a man it's respectful to have no head covering e.g. even when going to a restaurant or nice/fancy place men shouldn't wear hats, in EE it's still common sense, and in the west it was just general etiquette (no idea how it was lost in the west), in the same way women could always wear head coverings everywhere, including indoors, if you see 19th century paintings you'll see. It's tradition and culture from Christendom. The church is a sacred building, on sanctified ground, and Jesus is present in the Eucharist ... Holy.
Quite frankly I'm surprised the culture in the west has shifted so much as it has, objectively it makes less sense what we currently do rather than what was basic behaviour and etiquette before, and in a church (sacred space) even more so.
I'm only answering the second question in my above comment... as to your first... not sure, I was raised in NO & have don't veil, but have started/tried when going to TLM, I really like it, it's a shame we all stopped ... but I still don't in NO as I'm worried about standing out and people staring ... so I'm on the fence re your first Q.
I'm not a Catholic but a protestant. The veil is to show our covering is the Lord. Some people interpret Corinthians to be about modesty and a woman's hair is beautiful and attracts the wrong kind of attention, it actually refers to attention from angels, some say the fallen angels were attracted to women and the headscarf is to show they are under the Lords protection and that we are surrendered to His will. So while it pleases the Lord we should do it however it is completely up to the woman to choose for herself if she does it. It says in Corinthians that if the headscarf starts quarrels and division we should discard it because it has become a distraction and completely missing the Lord will for us. So from a protestant perspective it's not disrespectful not to do it but it does please the Lord so we SHOULD do it if that makes sense. Many protestant Christians have started wearing headscarf full time because it says the covering is for prayer and worship and it also says we should pray without ceasing, so it makes sense to always have it. I think Christian culture only gave the tradition away quite recently because of feminism, but i think we're passed that now. It does say a woman should be submissive to the man and let him lead, but it also says a man should love his wife more than he loves himself, so it's not what people think.
is there a certain age a women should start veiling?
The earlier the better
Can we wear it with jeans? Because till now I have seen women wearing it with dresses.
Also I have heard from people saying 👉why should we wear them ..like why only women need to do it..dosent men also have something like it...why such kinda stuffs are only for women ....👈 how to respond to this?
Men should keep head uncovered, where women should cover head out of reverence and respect. I have been veiling for over a year now and attend a NO mass where no one veils. It makes me feel humble and “small” in the presence of Jesus. On Sundays I wear a dress and a true veil. On week days, or for meetings in church,if I’m wearing jeans or not a dress, I will cover my head with a scarf or bandanna or hat I cover my head whenever I go into church because Jesus is in the tabernacle, even if I just am going to confession. I felt self conscious at first, but now I would feel self conscious if i didn’t. Pray about it.
@@Grtchnjb Wow, we're same. I felt that I'm humbling before God when I am wearing my veil. And recently , I did not wear because my veil have an ink from my ballpen. And I kinda missed that. And I hope I can buy soon. But definitely I'm afraid, scared cause I am now a choir member in our Parish. I don't how to start. What if they will be anger to me?. Idk
@@Grtchnjb Can you pray for me, ma'am?
As a Jewish woman, I am not sure why YT algo suggested this video but I did watch a great interview with a Muslim woman who wears her hijab and opened a female only salon for her patrons and an Orthodox a Jewish woman who opened a sheitl store and salon for Orthodox Jewish women. In case you didn’t know, an orthodox a Jewish woman are required to cover their hair upon marriage and only their husband shall see her real hair. Depending on the sect and type of a Judaism the woman’s family observes, she may either wear a full wig (which can match her real hair or look completely different, the point is modesty and privacy, not disguise) or they can wear a variety of full covering scarves.
I know this Orthodox tradition was in place in Jesus’ time frame and his household, via his mother. I am curious, if you know, why Catholicism didn’t carry that practice over into its faith. In Orthodox Judaism, it is an affirmative obligation from g-d, not an optional practice. It isn’t routine in Conservative or a Reform Judaism. I was wondering if you knew the history, from a comparative religion standpoint.
My wife wants to veil but hasn’t been baptized yet, can she veil?
Yes she can :)
I really wanna start veiling but I grew up with people of the kind "oNLy mUsLIms CovEr thEIr hEaD" + I'm minor so I don't think this will happen as soon as I don't get older than 18 😓
I thought that too honestly lol
I’m a Christian that grew up in a Jewish neighborhood. Orthodox Jewish women wear scarves & dress modestly. They look very pretty, as do Muslim women & Christian women.
Can I wear a red veil for my confirmation?
I'd suggest a white one but I don't think there are any rules
@@TheReligiousHippie Thank you so much for your reply!
I am a christian but not Catholic can I still veil?
yes!
I think I figured out why Christian headscarves look so much better than the other ones. Almost all the ones I like that I keep seeing are semi-transparent lace patterns. You get half the display of attempted modesty, and half of the truth, light, and beautiful reality of God's greatest physical creation in my life in this moment (after the Eucharist, of course) able to subtly waft its way into the eyes of an innocent bystander like that one guy over there (not me), by still being able to see the hair, ears, the way the hair is done on the side, and soforth. It's a simple centerpiece accessory that passively projects an air of irresistable subtle coquettish-ness. We need to start a feminist hacker cell in Afghanistan so we can indoctrinate and train them how to overthrow the Taliban by charming the men until morale improves. I'll go gather some intel. Aye aye. Roger. Copy. Ryoukai. Out.
As an Catholic Christian keralite it is our tradition to veil before entering the church, from young to old all women veil themselves. So ya remind that you veil for God not for other people.
And our Mother Mary also used to veil.
i want to start veiling but idk which one to wear , i don't wanna look like an old lady no offense 😂 and also i'm afraid to start veiling too!
Yes it sort of defeats the purpose if its drawing too much attention lol😂 I like the idea of getting one the same or similar to your hair colour.
Why don’t men veil then if it is a sign of respect
Mask requirements drove me to ask "What should I cover, when in the presence of my God?". Mm...my shoulders, my thighs, my decolletage, my head. Not my smile.
It kept you safe
@@SofiaSophiaSophie No it actually didn't. Thankfully many people now realize what a lie that was and won't wear one again.
Well i got mi first weil, and it didnt go well, almost entire mass it sliced off my head 😒😒😒😒
Bobby pin it on
The doily veil why bother
Be sure to cover your God-given veil with a man-made veil. Two veils is the way to go.
…So, I guess buckets are out of the question 😂
The veil has one main purpose and that is the keeping of privacy and de-sexualization of the wearer. Men can wear veils as women. Good greetings. Tim.
we dont wear any veil in the church. it was a custom of the Hebrews. we dont follow the customs but we follow Lord Yeshu Hamashiyah now
Catholic here are following the new testament. St Paul said to veil.
@@evangelion1962 what you are saying IS NOT TRUE. st paul said that woman's hair is her covering (1 cor 11;15). he never said to put any veil on the covering. you teach falsely and mislead women
I don't know why wearing a veil to church is a big deal. It's been done for centuries all over the world.
Nic nie rozumiem.
The spiritual hippie, AKA, a con artist looking to separate rubes from their monies.
I thought this was for muslims only😂
If someone wants to wear a veil, they can, but I personally think they just draw attention to themselves. In my parish there is a family where all females including young wear the veil. They all have solemn faces. Don't speak to or mix with other parishioners, and sit away from everyone else. It's cult-like IMO. Very strange!
