Is it permissible for one appointed to slaughter the sacrificial animal (udhiyah) to shave his hair during the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah?

Yes, it is permissible for the agent to trim his hair and nails, because that prohibition is specific to the sacrificer (owner of the sacrificial animal) and not to the agent who slaughters it. For agents are not sacrificers; rather, the sacrificer is the one who commissioned the sacrifice.
