You are not getting my point. I am saying that if we are humble by not beautifying ourselves with jewelry, then by the same token what about not beautifying ourselves by other means as well? Combing our hair beautifies us.

And personally, I do not think Pentecostal women without jewelry are most beautiful in the world. I have cringed at the appearance of many of them, personally. I saw grey hair and bland looks, and said my wife is not going to look like that! That's just me, but in no way do I share your opinion.

Why do they see it that way when they have no makeup, skirts to their ankles, not jewelry and no tank tops?

I do not see it that way. I do not condone tank tops, though.

WHy didn't Peter and Paul say some women then?

They did not say anything similar to what you are proposing to begin with. They said a woman should not think that allurements through her outward are what will win their lost husbands, and Paul said a woman should not think she is showing her Christian character by her clothes.
