henny34: can you make a sheitl out of your own hair?
henny34: Hi. I was just wondering if it is permitted for a woman to have her hair cut and make a sheitl out of it?
Mrs. Shaffer: there ins't a Halachic problem with that
henny34: so what would be the difference between that and keeping her hair uncovered?
Mrs. Shaffer: well..put it this way
Mrs. Shaffer: a man might feel pelasure in caressing his wife's hair...running his fingers through her hair
Mrs. Shaffer: if she were to cut it..and construct a wig out of it...what's the liklihood that he'd find plesure in running his fingers carressingly through his wife's wig?
Mrs. Shaffer: :)
henny34: I see. Interesting point.
henny34: thank you!
