Question
Does someone who touches hair have to wash his hands when he wants to recite a blessing or study Torah?
Answer
If one touches deep within the hair, he must wash his hands, but if he only touches on top of the hair, he does not need to wash his hands. There is no difference between under the kippah and outside the kippah; rather, any place within the depth of the hair of the head is considered an area of perspiration, and what is not in the depth is not.
