Question
Shalom and blessings,
Is it permitted to cut a lock of hair from a three-month-old baby girl, and is the halachic ruling different from that of a baby boy, for whom the custom is not to cut the hair?
Thank you very much.

Answer
Shalom and blessings
From a halachic perspective, it is permitted.
There are those who have the custom not to cut a child’s hair until the age of three. However, in a case where the hair bothers the baby, one should not be stringent.
