Question

Chalaka ceremony during the Counting of the Omer on the day the child turns three. Is it permissible to cut some hair during the Counting of the Omer? (And is there any prohibition at all against cutting individual hairs during the Counting of the Omer?)

Answer

Hello, 

Chalaka during the Counting of the Omer is permitted, and some wait until Lag BaOmer.

Therefore, if there is no other custom, it is permissible to completely cut the child's hair, and certainly permissible to cut individual hairs.

For other people, a significant haircut is prohibited, as it is considered a full haircut.
