Question by : What is the babushka’s role in Jewish tradition?
So, I heard it was once tradition for Jewish women wear babushkas after they’re married? I’ve also seen children wear them. So is there any strictness to it? Why did people wear them?
It’s also a head scarf.

It’s a headscarf worn by observant Jewish women that denotes Godly submission.
Young girls sometimes wear them when they’re accompanying their parents to a religious event, as a mark of respect…
