		A kippah is a convenient alternative due to its compactness and lightness; it has become identified as a symbol of Jewishness in the last century.

	MNDnet: Your Alternate Daily News Source » Phantom Kippah
		Phantom Kippah pain – pain appearing to come from where a kippah used to be – is often excruciating and almost impossible to treat.
		These phantom kippah sensations are also present in children who have worn a kippah since birth, suggesting that perception of our kippah is ‘hard-wired’ into our brain and that sensations from the kippah becomes mapped onto these brain networks as we develop.
		Subsequently, the forced donning of the kippah can lead to abnormal and painful resentment of kvetching relatives, and may change the way the kippah connects to positive brain functioning in the Jew’s brain where the kippah is looked upon with positive connotations.

	Viewing - wearing tzitzit & kippah - why not?
		So while I respect that you "feel more comfortable" wearing tzitzit and a kippah, I would suggest that it would be more germane to explore what God thinks about it, not what you or I think.
		Even if one could justify a women's wearing tzitzit as her voluntary observance of a non-required positive commandment, that logic would not apply to a kippah, which is a binding custom that was never instituted for women.
		And even with regard to tzitzit, numerous halachic authorities maintain that this is fundamentally "men's attire" and a woman's wearing them is a violation of the Biblical injunction against a woman's wearing men's clothing.

		Traditionally, the kippah is worn by men, but increasingly women are also adopting this head covering as a replacement for either lace head covers or fashion hats.
		This reflects both the kippah's status as a symbol of Jewish identity and the increasing equality of women in many Jewish communities.
