Is it annoying? Does it stay in the tichel? My hair is only short enough for a pony tail but it is still too heavy. ( how long does jt take to grow back to shoulder)

On the flipside can u recommend any light tichels? The wraps are heavy and my husbans thinks the pretied are ugly.

I had kind of boy short hair for a while, a mushroom cut to the upper end of my ears and the neck shaved. It stayed well under the tichel/scarf, better than long hair in my opinion. But I didn't like the look with tichel on - too flat, not enough volume underneath and at the back (I don't use poofy preformed shapers). So I grew my hair back, it took over a year, and wear it in a wrapped up bun again. You are looking for light tichels? I'd use thin cotton ones for that, not pre-tied. Can't think of anything lighter. Synthetic materials tend to slip and can be sweaty.

I cut my hair to a #8 after I gave birth. It was super-freeing, but I had a problem with "peyot" sticking out, since they were too short to stay under my velvet headband. Next time, I think I'll cut it to 2 inches.

(Also, if you do cut your hair short: I recommend wear a squar mitpachat with the tail open. The breeze ruffles your hair inside the mitpachat, and it feels amazing.)

I use scarves which I tie myself. They are square and I fold them into a triangle and tie them myself. Comfy lightweight and look pretty.

Have your hair thinned instead of cutting it shorter.

Wait. What? Why???

Then you have the least of both worlds: your hair is no longer luxurious, but you still have to take care of it.

She said even at a length just long enough to put into a pony, her hair is too heavy. Sounds like it's very thick. Short thick hair not being able to be pulled back and pinned in place will be much harder to manage under a wig and hair covering.

My hair is boy short. I shave in front of my ears, otherwise it will be poking out even with a sheitel. It is so comfortable. No hairs stick out, but my hair is of a rougher texture, I have no idea about fine, silky hair. Best part is that I don’t have a stupid looking “cupcake” bump in the back of my sheitel


And your husband what does he think about it? Lets say your tichel slides off when you sleep

That's a great tip! I just gave birth and also cut to #8 because my hair started shedding and I was going nuts

Curious about dh opinion about boy hairCuts or shaving? I’m not referring to in the chasidic community where it is a part of a bigger value system
