In Welsh, "sheitel" means "garment" or "clothing."

There is no prohibition, though it might bring people to wonder about her status or think she is a divorcee.

# Tallit; a large square garment with tzitzit worn during prayers # Tallit katan- an undershirt-type of garment with tzitzit worn all day by male Jews # Kippa; the skullcap worn by all male Jews # Sheitel; a wig worn by married Jewish ladies # Tichel; a head-covering worn by married Jewish ladies

There are a few terms for the "beanie" that the Jewish man wears. One of these is the yamulke, a term that the Askenazi community uses. Another is the kippah, which is the term that seems to have become more popular in recent years. In both cases, it is the men's covering to denote his submission to God's Will.

Jews wear the same clothes as the citizens of the country they live in. The men also wear Tzitzit (garment with fringes) and a Kippa and the married women often keep their heads covered with a sheitel (wig) or tichel (head-scarf) and ensure their clothes are not immodest. Also, Jews may not have shaatnez in their clothes. (Shatnez isa mix of wool and linen and is prohibited in Leviticus 19:19.)
