  1. Thank you very much for answering my follow-up question about a child napping in shoes!

    This shiur is very interesting and I’ve learned a lot! Thank you!

  2. I do not mean to be disrespectful or cause machines or embarrassment, G-d forbid, but Rav Braun on asktherav.com said that lace top sheitels are not a problem of mar’is ayin.
    “It’s not a concern of mar’is ayin, since it’s well known that religious women wear shaitlach. Certainly if this type of sheitel becomes common there’s no need to be concerned.

    However one must ensure that the lace-front (or lace-top) is not see-through at all, and that one’s scalp and hair are completely covered (by having a fabric sewn in on the inside or the like).”
