Showing a Lock of Hair of a Woman

Question
What is the ruling on a woman showing a lock of hair at the front of her head?
Answer
I say, and with God's guidance: A woman's hair is considered 'awrah (a part of the body that should be covered) and it is not permissible for her to reveal any of it, and God knows best.
