Question

Hello, I want to know what the possibilities are for hair styling on Rosh Hashanah. I have curly hair, and over time the curls fall out and become quite untidy. Is there any possibility to lightly wet the hair so that it looks a bit more tidy?

Answer

Hello

It is permitted to wet hair on Shabbat and Yom Tov, but care must be taken to avoid squeezing.

Therefore, if you lightly wet and style, and ensure not to press or squeeze the hair, there is no issue.
