Hair Removal on Chol Hamoed
Question
I previously asked about laser hair removal on Chol Hamoed. The question was whether, if the area is shaved before the procedure and the laser is done when there is no hair at all, it is permissible to do laser?
Answer
Shalom Rav,
The initial shaving is problematic in this case.
If there is no necessity to perform the procedure on Chol Hamoed, it should not be done.
If due to the treatment schedule it is necessary to do it on Chol Hamoed, it is permitted.
