Wear feathers how?
My daughter and I each carry a feather fan, and she has a hawk feather she wears in her hair. I have some feathers on a teather that I wear in my hair sometimes, but it depends on what all else I'm wearing! Sometimes I'll put those feathers on my wrist.Your Heart Shows by how Your Words and Actions Affect Others.

I've seen many women with drops instead of plumes. I don't wear either because my tribal tradition is that women only wear feathers in war time. Although we are at war, the woman wears the feathers to honor the service men and women in their family. I don't have anyone serving in my family, so I continue not to wear feathers in my hair.

Is it permissable for traditional women's cloth dancer to carry an imitation Eagle feather fan? I know you usually have to earn Eagle feathers, so I was just curious.

I chose to carry a turkey feather fan, I have some real Eagle feathers, but not enough for a fan, and they are put away protected. I chose not to have even an imatation eagle fan, mostly because so many others are carrying them.

by Moosa09Hey, I'm a fancy shawl dancer who has been dancing for about 5 years. I don't dance with feathers, not by choice. People have told me to buy feathers from a store or to get them from a wild life preservation. I strongly believe that people should wear feathers that are A: given to them or B: have earned...

by WhoMeIn a lot of tribes, it could be descerned whether a woman was single or married by how they wore their feathers.
In many northern plains and plateau tribes, women with one feather sticking straight up in the center or on the side, considered herself single. A woman who wore two feathers...-

by WhoMeI have seen women smoke dancers with shaved feather bunches in the back of their hair.
Does this have a meaning or a name?
Is this a recent addition to women's smoke dancing?-
