"Do not let your adorning be external...the braiding……" — Bible
"Do not let your adorning be external...the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear, 4 but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in Gods sight is very precious. -1 Peter 3:3-5"
