The Groom Seeing His Fiancée Before the Contract

Question
Is it permissible for the groom to see his fiancée's hair before the contract?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: It is forbidden to see any part of a woman's body or her hair before the marriage contract; because the suitor, until he has contracted, is a foreign man, and it is not permissible for him to see anything other than the face and hands. And God knows best.
