The Veil ( hair and face covering ) in the bible

Hair covering
Corinthians1 (11:5

http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/...11&version=NIV

5And every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head—it is just as though her head were shaved. 6If a woman does not cover her head, she should have her hair cut off; and if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut or shaved off, she should cover her head. 7A man ought not to cover his head,[b] since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man.


Timothy1 (2:9-10

http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/...+2&version=NIV

"I also want women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or expensive clothes
, but with good deeds, appropriate for women who profess to worship God"

1 How beautiful you are, my darling!
Oh, how beautiful!
Your eyes behind your veil are doves.
3 Your lips are like a scarlet ribbon;
your mouth is lovely.
Your temples behind your veil
are like the halves of a pomegranate.
