  • 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.

  • Wigmaker and Barber by Sharon Fabian
    Name Date Wigmaker and Barber By Sharon Fabian Cosmetology is a popular vocational subject in high school. In cosmetology class, students learn to wash and cut hair. They learn to give perms and to color hair too. They learn how to do a fancy hairstyle for a special occasion like a prom. They might learn to cut and style wigs as well as real hair. Cosmetology students often go on to work as hairdressers, styling hair for customers. In colonial times, there were also people who worked as hairdressers. Some people are surprised to learn that, because we often think of the colonists as hard working people who didn't have time for frivolous things like a fancy hairdo. However, there were many people in colonial America who were very fashion conscious and who kept up with the latest styles in both clothing and hairstyles. This was especially true in the larger cities like Williamsburg, Virginia. A city like Williamsburg had shops that catered to the fashion conscious. Wigmakers and barbers there both provided hairdressing services. A barber might provide shaves and haircuts in addition to his other duties, such as performing surgery and pulling teeth! A wigmaker, of course, made wigs, and in the 1700s, wigs were the latest fashion! The fashion of wearing wigs began with the royalty in France; it spread to England and then to America. In colonial times, the gentlemen, not the ladies, wore wigs. Colonial gentlemen also wore queues. A queue was like a ponytail wig that was tied on at the back of the head.

  • Is There Dignity in Being Bald
    Ain’t No Such Thing as a Bald Headed Rock Star One of my many fantasies in life was to be a rock star (as recounted in Chapter 4). And, as you know, the key reason I had no hope whatsoever of being a rock star is a breathtaking lack of any discernable talent for the guitar…or for singing. The only thing I had going for me was a full head of black hair, and as one long forgotten girlfriend told me when I was a junior in high school, a faint and distant resemblance to Ricky Nelson. Even that started to go wrong during my freshman year in college. I began to find a few black hairs in the tub after washing my hair. I wondered if… Certainly not me! Couldn’t be! I had a widow’s peak, just like Ricky and Elvis…. I was destined to be a rock star or a network newsman. Hair was a prerequisite. I simply couldn’t be losing my hair. My grandfather (on my mother’s side) was bald. As were all my uncles on mom’s side of the family. Cue ball bald. With just that little horseshoe fringe around the sides. I’d read somewhere, probably in Reader’s Digest, that baldness is hereditary. If your relatives on your mother’s side of the family are bald, chances are fabulous that you will, indeed, be just as bald as they are. The good news, you’ll save money on haircuts. One summer evening, after a long day at my summer job at the paper mill, I’d taken a shower, washed my hair, and was watching TV.

  • 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
    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.

From razors to lasers, people are searching for the best solutions and experimenting with different ways to keep body hair at bay.

  • 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.
