A woman covering her hair indoors

Hi,

It is true that the Talmud praises the practice of a woman named Kimchit, who covered her hair even in her home. However, a woman is by no means obligated to do so when only her husband and children are present, and even in talmudic times this was most uncommon.

(Rav Moshe Feinstein, Igrot Moshe Orach Chaim 5:37:12)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
