[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For religious muslim women who cover their hair, at what age are girls expected to start wearing a head scarf? I saw a toddler on the train with a head scarf, and was of the (perhaps mistaken) view that most girls did not cover their hair until they got older.[/quote] I started at 9. My parents didn't push it (my mom does not wear one), I wanted to. I do see at the mosque and religious events where younger girls do cover their hair, and it's not unusual. I wore one for 10 years, then stopped.[/quote] To follow up with another perspective, in Egypt most (middle class) women don't cover until college or even later with marriage. [/quote] Not familiar with Egyptian customs.[/quote]
