Because Islam is a religion in which modesty is encouraged very much.......and so, guarding of the modesty is naturally crucial too. In order to keep themselves unattractive to lusty men, women in Islam are encouraged to cover their hair, as hair is one of the parts of a women that make her look attractive, and not only are women required to cover themselves up, but men too are supposed to cover themselves, atleast from above the bottom-private part, till below their knees. But it's obviously better for men to not leave their tops uncovered though.

Hope could answer your question!......:)

Why do middle Eastern cultures have women cover their heads?

Most the countries in the Middle East are Islamic. Muslim women are ordained by Islam to cover their heads and faces, especially when they come out of their houses. In Israel, which is mostly Jewish, religious Jewish married women cover their hair (Talmud, Ketubot 72b). This is for the purpose of modesty - only her husband should see her beauty - since the hair is considered beautiful (Talmud, Berakhot 24a).
