Cutting Moustache After Tisha B'av
Question
Am i aloud to cut my mustache tonight.
Answer
Shalom!
Thank you for your question.
According to the Ashkenazi custom one does not shave or cut hair until "chatzot"- halachic noon on the day following Tisha B'av. However, if one's moustache interferes with one’s eating, one may cut it just like one may do so during the Nine Days.
