European Cover

I noticed that the churches of Eastern Europe, many women wear scarves to cover their hair. Is there a religious reason why they do it, and if so, why do not Christian women in other areas of the world do too?

The New Testament says that women should cover their heads when they pray. However, this is not a teaching of Jesus is only a doctrine of St. Paul.

I Corinthians 11:5-6
5 And every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head: it's as if his head was shaved. 6 If a woman does not cover her head, she should have her hair cut, and if it is shameful for a woman to have her hair cut or shaved, she should cover her head.

Look in the real world.

Women label.
Tradition and practices that have been passed down from generation to generation later in the book of life for their own survival in the real world with respect and adoration of God in time.
No self-image of standing idol as "Venus" and "Proud Mary" by kicking the butts of God in not worshiping God in time.
Genesis 3.16
Exodus 20.12
1 Timothy 2. 9-15
Titus 2.3-5
Exodus 20.1-18
Apocalypse 22.13-17
Matt 22.17-21,32
What do you think?

it is not cultural or fashion statement, it is part of religion ... in a part of the Bible (Book II Corinthians) it is said that a woman must cover her head and if she decides not to leave his head be shorn (shaved). Some Christians do not even know what they question why Muslims on earth would they cover their hair (when told to do the same thing in the Bible - What a shame eh). Muslims do it for modesty and self-respect. Christians shared the same belief, but now that America is so "modern", it is rarely practiced and now regarded as strange ... time passes and people are even more ignorant

There is a script of your head cover for women. Some think it simply means hair. Even here in the United States Mennonite many cover their heads. Others think it means submission to men so they refuse to cover their heads. It is an archaic idea. They try to be respectful to the church.

Im Croatian background (Southern Europe). General women wear headscarves DONT Croatia to the church you can see images of people praying in Medjugorje, etc. Although women can wear if they want / choose.
Some women, especially older women do not wear the veil just out of tradition and for practical reasons, because they make a lot of agricultural work difficult, but there is nothing to do with religion for
My grandmother used to wear one.It looks like this

It is cultural. Western culture has abandoned the head covering for women even in church.

There is still Protocol emphasizes that Western hairstyles for women, and for some Royal occasions to visit the Pope, or other heads of state, etc.

Many women do too Norther Europe.
I had to cover my head when I was in church like all other females. Baptist farming in Scotland.
Gone but not forgotten, unfortunately ... Always wear a hat well, but only because I want to because I have to.

The coverage of the hair is in fact the tradition of the Jews kipot.

Jews and Christians have modernized, but the Muslims have gone backward.

coz The Bible says to cover their hair and if all women were not wearing headscarves let their hair shaved bible.it says is true.

I believe that the Bible says the same thing about women covering their hair.

Or, perhaps it could be a cultural or fas.
