Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him? But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering. (1 Corinthians 11:10-15 KJV)

The uncut hair of a woman was given by God as a covering. Those who advocate the veil are advocating as belief that something man made can supercede something God gave as acceptable as a covering. God instituted what the covering was to be on a woman, and that covering is uncut hair.
Thank you and this is correct.
