In Roman Catholicism, a black veil is the traditional sign of a professed nun. Some monasteries or communities bestow the black veil at the first profession of vows, but usually it is bestowed with the profession of solemn vows. As a further sign of her espousal commitment to Christ, she will be presented with a ring. In some monastic orders, according to traditional practise, the nun making her solemn profession could also receive the Consecration of Virgins either the same time or, more rarely, some time afterwards.
