Osiyo! Ok, I've been told many different things about wearing my feather in my hair...some people tell me to wear it everywhere and others tell me to only wear it at powwows. I am single, so I wear only one. Can someone tell me where I'm supposed to wear it? My little sister and I are the last Cherokees of our family so I don't know where else to turn....

Im not real clear on your question, but as for my feathers I only wear them during pow-wows or certain occ... not for everyday use...I got a fevah! And the only cure is more cowbell!!! -
Well, since there is so much to deal with in where I live, I always keep my Prayer Feather with me, so that I know I have something to believe in when times are tough. I wear it to powwows, school, home, everywhere...is that bad? I'm not sure...Comment

You have to be very careful if you are wearing your feather(s) all of the time. You never know who is watching you. If you don't have a permit for them, it could cause a lot of problems for you.Through the good times and bad times, always pray.Comment
