  • Shaving and Shavers - Part 2 Ou Israel Center - Summer 2018
    5778 - dbhbn ovrct [email protected] 1 sxc HALACHIC AND HASHKAFIC ISSUES IN CONTEMPORARY SOCIETY 101 - SHAVING AND SHAVERS - PART 2 OU ISRAEL CENTER - SUMMER 2018 In Part 1 we saw that the Torah prohibits men from shaving their beard with a razor. In this shiur we need to apply the principles that we learned in Part 1 to the electric shaver and understand the contemporary psak. A] THE HISTORY OF THE ELECTRIC SHAVER • 1879 - invention of the manual beard-clipping machine, mentioned by poskim at the end of the 19C. • 1898 - patents first filed for an electric razor. • 1903 - invention of the safety razor by Gillette in the US. This was marketed in Europe from 1905. • 1925 - invention of the electric safety razor and the vibro-shave. • 1931 - Jacob Schick created the first electric shaver. This was already referenced in the US poskim by 1932.1 • 1939 - Phillips began to produce the shaver with a round head. 2 • 1980s - Invention of the ‘Lift & Cut’ electric shaver. B] THE HALACHIC BACKGROUND We must briefly review the halachic framework for the mitzvah that we saw in Part 1. :Wbe z ,¬ t P ,­t ,h ºj J , t´«k u o·f Jt«r ,­ t P Up ºE , t´«k 1. zf:yh trehu In Parashat Kedoshim the Torah explicitly prohibits ‘destroying’ the corners of the beard. It does NOT specifically refer to a razor blade. , yrG U ­y r Gh t¬«k o ºrG c¸cU Uj·Kdh t«k obez ,tpU o ºJt«r C Æv j re U ³j r eh&t«k (v) 2.

    By Louis Silberman or many women and men, hair removal is more than a process, more than a routine and much more than simply a chore—it is Fa full-on battle. The current styles and trends for both sexes call for a smooth, virtually hair-free physique. However, obtaining a bare bod is not always easy. Depending on the method of hair removal used, the process can be time-consuming, stubble can reappear quickly, and ingrown hairs can become a painful, unsightly problem. Americans spend $10 billion on various products and services to remove unwanted fuzz. From razors to lasers, people are searching for the best solutions and experimenting with different ways to keep body hair at bay. Hair removal history The history of hair removal dates back to prehistoric hair removal included combining a tortoise shell with times.

  • WHO Surgical Site Infection Prevention Guidelines Web Appendix 7 Summary of a Systematic Review on the Effectiveness and Optimal Method of Hair Removal
    WHO Surgical Site infection Prevention Guidelines Web Appendix 7 Summary of a systematic review on the effectiveness and optimal method of hair removal 1. Introduction Removal of hair from the intended site of surgical incision has traditionally been part of the routine preoperative preparation of patients undergoing surgery. Hair removal may be necessary to facilitate adequate exposure to the site and preoperative skin marking. Furthermore, suturing and the application of wound dressings can be complicated by the presence of hair. Apart from these practical issues, hair has been associated with a lack of cleanliness and the potential to cause surgical site infection (SSI). However, there is also the belief that hair removal inversely increases the risk of SSI by causing microscopic trauma of the skin. To minimize the potential of skin trauma, the use of clippers instead of razors has been proposed for preoperative hair removal. Clippers cut the hair close to the skin without actually touching it, whereas razors involve a sharp blade drawn directly over the skin. A third method for hair removal is the application of depilatory creams containing chemicals. The drawbacks are the necessity to leave the cream in place for approximately 15-20 minutes for the hair to be dissolved and the potential for allergic reactions. A Cochrane review, published in 2009 and updated in 2011, concluded that there was no statistically significant effect on SSI rates of hair removal 1. However, a significant harm was seen when hair removal with razors was compared with clipping. 2. PICO questions 1. Does hair removal affect the incidence of SSI? 2.
