Roman Catholic AnswerIn general the headdress that nuns wear was the common headdress of all women at the time their particular Order was founded. At most times throughout history all women kept their heads covered at all times. From the ancient Greeks and Romans through the medieval period, until fairly recently. Up until the 1960's no respectable woman would be seen outside her house without her head covered. Nuns mostly wore veils, although some of the later Orders wear Coronets (think of the "Flying Nun"). Within the order the veils are very different. Postulants would have a simple veil, novices would have a white veil, Juniors would have a short veil, and solemnly professed would have the long veil.
