Does a rebuke for a beard allow a haircut for the head

Someone in the year of mourning for his father is rebuked for his grown beard. Does the rebuke for the beard also permit a haircut for the head?

A rebuke for the beard does not permit a haircut for the head.

Some have written to prove from the words of the Noda Bi'Yehuda in Shu"t Mahadura Kama Orach Chaim, Siman 14, where he wrote: "And even though we are stringent about the period of rebuke, and the Rema wrote three months. It is known that this is for those who do not shave their beard, only their head. But in countries where they shave their beard immediately after two or three weeks, they become very bothersome, and the short hairs growing on their beard appear like thorns in their eyes and in the eyes of all who see them, as seen in the days of Egypt, where literally a day is considered a year." And from his words, it is understood that a rebuke for the beard permits the head, as he wrote that the period is for those who grow the beard, not for those who shave it. And if there was a distinction for a person who shaves between the hair on the head and the hair on the beard, then the Rema would be referring to the hair on the head. And the reasoning is that just as it is impossible to rebuke half the head, so too a rebuke for a long beard permits cutting the entire head. However, the opinion of our teacher, the Rav, shlita, is that one should not rely on this leniency, and a rebuke is effective for the beard as mentioned above, and for the head, 30 days are required.
