Question
Are Ashkenazim allowed to get a haircut this year from Friday night? Thank you very much.
Answer
Hello,
This year, since Lag BaOmer falls on a Sunday, it is permitted to get a haircut before Shabbat, in honor of Shabbat.
In a regular situation, one should only get a haircut on Friday. Only in a pressing situation, it is permissible to get a haircut from Friday night.
