Kippah Kippot
Kippah Kippot
How do bald men keep their kippot on?
My rabbi is completely bald but his kippah stays very nicely in place. I'm not sure if he would be offended if I asked, so I'm asking you; how do bald Jewish men wear their kippot?
Well if the man is completely bald then they get ones that are a little larger.
If they are just balding then they use bobbypins.
Other man also use hair clips.

As with any other religion, there are signs, symbols, practices and customs that are an integral part of Jewish life. One of the obvious identifiers of a religious Jewish man is the kippah. Kippas are the circular skullcaps that Jewish men wear at all times. When visiting a significant religious area like a synagogue, even non-practicing or non-religious men are encouraged to wear kippas.
Kippah is the Hebrew word for these head coverings (plural is kippot or kippas). Yarmulka (plural is yarmulkes) is the Yiddish word for kippah, which is more widely known among non-Jewish English speakers. Religious Jewish men wear kippas at all times, whereas less observant men wear kippas only during prayer and religious ceremonies. The only time observant men don't wear kippot is while sleeping.
In Judaism, covering the head demonstrates Jewish identity and is an act of religious devotion. There are some Talmudic references to covering the head, however the practice is considered more of a tradition and custom than a commandment. The styles of kippas often identify social, political or religious association. Classical Orthodox men typically wear smooth black bowl-shaped yarmulkes. Hasidic men wear fedoras over large black kippot. Zionists or Modern Orthodox men typically wear knitted yarmulkes. These styles stem from religious, social, and cultural traditions, although some Jewish men prefer certain materials and styles based on personal preference rather than specific affiliation.
Another Jewish custom that is commonly practiced is posting a mezuza on the doorpost of the home. Mezuza, the Hebrew word for "doorpost," is a case that contains a scroll with the first paragraph of the Shema Yisrael (the core Jewish prayer) written on it. The prayer begins: "Hear, O Israel, the LORD our God, the LORD is One." Mezuzot are hung on the doorposts of most Jewish homes as symbolic protectors of the home and reminders of the commandments. The tradition of affixing mezuzot has roots within the writings of the Torah (Deuteronomy).
Another common item in many traditional Jewish homes is the challah cover for Shabbat dinner. There are many beautiful designs available and they add a decorative touch to the dinner table. As well as a symbol of Shabbat tradition, challah covers also serve the practical purpose of keeping the challah bread from drying out. As common Judaica store products, challah covers are produced in a variety of materials, including silk, terylene, and velvet.
The menorah is another major aspect of the Jewish way of life. There are two different types of Menorahs: seven-branched and nine-branched. The seven-branched menorah has been an important religious and cultural symbol for close to 3,000 years and is frequently used to represent Israel. The nine-branched menorah is specially associated with Hanukkah, and the extra eighth candle is used as a vehicle for lighting the other candles.
Judaica stores, both locally and online, offer a wide assortment of Seforim and other Jewish books, kippot, and mezuzot. In addition, a variety of items for special holidays like challah covers or menorahs can also be found.
Whether you need kippas, Seforim, Yarmulkas or the latest in Jewish music - http://www.eichlers.com is your one stop online Judaica Store.
