How does a woman shorten her hair for Hajj or Umrah? Is it necessary to shorten it from all sides of the hair, or is a single lock sufficient? Is it permissible for her to shorten her hair herself, or should one of her female relatives or friends shorten it for her? What is the best method for that?
The best for a woman is to shorten all of her hair by the length of a fingertip. This is done by gathering her hair to the front of her head, then taking from its ends the length of a fingertip.
