The F.O.G
[5] And when our sisters pray or prophesy with uncovered heads, they unintentionally diminish their dignity. In our society, it's as shocking as having their heads shaved—it communicates a rejection of their God-given identity and role.

and every woman praying or prophesying with the head uncovered, doth dishonour her own head, for it is one and the same thing with her being shaven,
