For if the woman be not covered, let her ALSO be shorn:" 1 Cor. 11:6 (AKJV)
`Abdullah bin `Amr bin Al-`As (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Convey from me even an Ayah of the Qur'an; relate traditions from Banu Israel, and there is no restriction on that but he who deliberately forges a lie against me let him have his abode in the Hell.'' [Al-Bukhari].
Here are some christian links that explain in detail to their own people all about the head covering in Christianity. You are not 'seeing things'. you're reading it right.
