I often wear a scarf or hat for Mass - less often in the summer, when it's very hot, and less often when I have a decent haircut :-). People stare sometimes, but I don't let it bother me. They stare at us because we have seven children and I'm pregnant again, too.

You're not the only one who does that trick...I wear hats and have several shawls I use, too, as well as scarves...but right now it's soo hot that I haven't done it as much.

There's a few young-uns in my parish who are wearing actual mantillas. There are a few older women who wear hats, but not many others. I was just curious.

The one nice thing about long hair - it takes exactly 10 seconds to "do it" and make it look decent. Bun in a scrungie keeps things very neatly in place.
