Hi everyone, my name is Angie, and I wanted to share something very personal that I believe will encourage other women who may be questioning or curious about head coverings. This isn’t something I took lightly. At first, I honestly brushed it off. I thought maybe people were making too much of a big deal about it. But after watching a few of Ya Girl Renae’s videos and then truly asking God for myself, I realized this was bigger than just a fashion choice—it was about obedience, faith, and the voice of the Holy Spirit.

When I first heard Renae talking about head wraps, I was intrigued but skeptical. I didn’t want to jump into something just because someone else was doing it. I believe our walk with God should always be personal and Spirit-led. So I took it to prayer. I remember one evening after watching one of her testimonies, I sat quietly and asked God, “Lord, is this something You want me to do? Is this truly for me, or is it just tradition?” That’s when the Holy Spirit began to reveal truth to me.

What I discovered shocked me a little. Deep down, I felt a clear impression from the Spirit that women should indeed cover their heads when they pray. It wasn’t condemnation, and it wasn’t fear—it was a gentle but powerful leading. I began to realize that the Scriptures about head coverings weren’t just some old-fashioned concept, but a living word that still matters today. The Holy Spirit whispered to me that wearing a head wrap wasn’t about appearances, but about honor, humility, and spiritual alignment.

Now, let me be transparent. I’m not at the point where I feel comfortable wearing my head wrap everywhere I go like Renae does. I admire her boldness, and I believe she’s walking in the freedom and conviction God has given her. But for me, the Holy Spirit has made it very clear that when I pray, my head should be covered. That much I know without a doubt, because I didn’t just take someone’s word for it—I asked God myself, and He answered.

Since then, my prayer time feels different. It feels more intentional. There’s a level of reverence that comes with putting on that head wrap and entering into prayer. It’s not about the fabric, but about the posture of my heart and the obedience of my spirit. It has honestly drawn me closer to God in a way I didn’t expect. Something as simple as a piece of cloth has become a powerful act of worship.

I also want to speak to women who are still unsure. Maybe you’ve heard about it, maybe you’ve dismissed it, or maybe you feel confused. My encouragement to you is this: don’t just go by what other people say—ask the Holy Spirit for yourself. He is faithful to answer. If you truly seek Him, He will show you whether or not this is what He wants for your walk. That’s exactly what He did for me, and I believe He will do the same for you.

Now, I’m taking this step by step. First, I’m embracing the head wrap in prayer. Next, I feel God might be dealing with me about makeup, but I’m not rushing that. I want to move in His timing, not mine. All I know for now is that God has confirmed this first step, and it feels right.

So, to wrap this up (no pun intended), I just want to thank Ya Girl Renae for being bold enough to share her journey, because it encouraged me to ask God about mine. And I want to thank the Holy Spirit for confirming that head wraps are indeed something He wants for women, especially in prayer. I may not be all the way there yet, but I am on the path—and I know this is a path God Himself has placed me on.

If you’re reading this and wondering about head wraps, I encourage you: seek God. Don’t ignore that tug on your heart. Ask Him directly, and then listen for His answer. The Holy Spirit will make it plain to you, just as He did for me.

I hear people say things like, “They apologized too late,” or, “I would have forgiven them if they had apologized years ago, but too much time has passed.” But I started thinking…
