Question
After sitting shiva for my sister, is it seven days or one month before I can start shaving again?
Answer
I am sorry to hear of your loss. Please know that I share your grief.
You should not shave for 30 days.
Hair around the mouth that affects your eating may be removed after shiva.
May we know no more sorrow, and may the Almighty comfort you among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem.
HaMakom yinachem etchem bitoch shaarei aveilei Tzion v'Yerushalayim.
