Woman cutting uneven hair to make it the same length

Submitted by user2 on Sat, 2021-01-30 06:39

Q: A lady has long hair that she does not cut because it is impermissible. However, over time, her hair has become uneven.

1. Is it permissible to cut the hair so that it looks even (of the same length) from her back when she unties it and puts her hair to her back?
Note that since individual hair strands grow from follicles at different parts of the scalp, making sure the hair looks the same length does not mean that each strand is of the same length. She feels like it is impossible to guarantee that all hair is the same length.

2. She has a lot of split ends and her hair is very dry and unhealthy at the ends. Is it permissible for her to cut the dry part (bottom 3-4 inches) so all of her hair becomes healthy?

Uneven haircut

Submitted by user2 on Thu, 2020-02-06 07:19

Q: As we know, one cannot shave the one part of the head and leave another because that is qaza which isn’t allowed (and since trimming and shaving aren’t the same thing because we know on the occasion of umrah Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) made a special dua for those who shave their hair and for those who trim it meaning there is a clear distinction).

My question is, what if you trim the sides and not shave, therefore it is not qaza? So if I trim it to about 3+ inches which isn’t short enough to copy or fall under qaza, and I cut with a scissor on top, is this permissible?
