A Toy That Got Tangled in Hair — Shabbat

Question

A toy got tangled in the hair of one’s head on Shabbat. Is it permitted to pull it out together with some of the hair?

Answer

Shalom u’vrachah 

It is permitted to pull the toy, and there is no prohibition if a hair is pulled out as a result, since he does not want the hair to be pulled out.
