Tribal headdresses can be used to increase [[Social Impact]] in the very early game, before you have access to a [[hand tailor bench]]. [[Veil]]s cost less material, they take less work to make, they protect just as much against bullets, insulate better against temperature, and they cover the entire face, whilst the tribal headdress only covers the head and ears. Social Impact increases [[opinion]] impact (positive and negative), and boosts the qualify of certain [[ritual]]s{{IdeologyIcon}}. When used for rituals, only 1 person needs a headdress, and it can be taken off as soon as the ritual is over. | Tribal headdresses can be used to increase [[Social Impact]] in the very early game, before you have access to a [[hand tailor bench]].

Thus, the tribal headdress has a very small niche: when you have access to fabric AND when you need a Social Impact boost, but before you have access to Complex Clothing. You may also want to use a tribal headdress if you obtain a particularly great / high quality one for protection in the early game. | Thus, the tribal headdress has a very small niche: when you have access to fabric AND when you need a Social Impact boost, but before you have access to Complex Clothing.
