Measuring by the Braid for Women
Is it permissible to measure other things like hairstyles by the braid, such as wrapping it in a bag and washing the roots of the hair? Are the things we measure by the braid only conditioned by the length of the hair? For instance, is it permissible not to wash straightened hair? Is washing the roots of the hair three times obligatory, and is it permissible to do it once?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: The ruling on braids is similar to that of braids in their state, in that it requires effort from the woman in her work like the braid, and it suffices to reach the roots of the hair with water even once, and God knows best.
