Best Answer

A yarmulke made of the right fabric, and with a deep enough concave shape, has no trouble maintaining its attachment, and no help is needed to make it stick, any more than any other hat. If the fabric is too slick, or the yarmulke is too flat, or the wearer has too little hair or is planning to be too physically active, etc., then some help may be required. A bobby pin or two is usually all it takes. Velcro has also been used. Thumb tacks have been suggested, but the suggestion is neither intended nor received seriously.

There are special clips that you can use to clip your kippah (the Hebrew word for yarmulke, which is Yiddish) to your hair, similar to a bobby pin. Or, you can just use a bobby pin. And I have known people to use double-sided tape.

A properly designed kippah stays on by itself.

Can you wear your tallit like a scarf?

The Tallit is an object of religious significance to the person who wears it. So if you put it in the personal category I say go for it. The garment is what the holder makes it. If you want to parade around in a tallit, using it as a scarf, that is your choice and I think it would be pretty cool! (I may use mine that way now!) On a religious level a Rabbi would probably say no.
