Why are we not allowed to cut hair when it's ok to cut nails, since both are created by God?

I think a split end would keep on growing. It is not as if it would stop!

OK, I can be a hair-splitting legalist when the occasion calls for it.

First, how do you recognise a dead hair and on what basis to you say that split-end hairs are dead?

For the sake of argument, let us agree that split-end are dead. Examine the split end. Assuming dead hairs can be cut, exactly where should it be cut. Exactly where does the live hair end and the dead hair begin?

This all gets very silly, very quickly.

Sat siri Akal ji,
First of all - this makes sense do yiu even know how spliss accruses? It is due to fricition(if it is long) If it is cut short - there isnt much friciton - furthermore it is predisposition - Chemical substrats can promote spliss as well! Scientifally proven.. Just search for it..!

And the thing with the dead hair - yes cut it if you find any! - That why we got a comb - it removes it without searching for one " dead " hair... all hair that is solid in our scalp is you can call it " living" - You can cut the hair that you put out of your comb - but I dont know what you gain - furthermore I don´t think you will search 2 hours on your head for a "dead hair". I dont get your point...

I don't get the point either!!!!

If this is directed at me, I was just trying to show how silly it gets when we try to make legalisms instead of focusing on the spirit of the issue.

What makes you say that ? It's not directed at anyone, the conversation went into ''cutting dead hairs''
The 'I don't get it'' is directed at this timewasting suggestion by Kamalaji.

Tigerstylezji has made it clear that so called dead hairs are dead because they are not attached into the follicle!!- this is what our combs are for.
Why would anyone go looking for loose dead hairs in your scalp, when your comb pulls them out.
What is this crazy talk of cutting dead hairs.- split ends are partially damaged hairs they are NOT dead, I'm sure we all kow that!!
Yes, split ends are damaged and can be repaired!!
I am no hairdresser or expert, but I'm sure that the hundreds of costly serums are to ''repair''. We can't repair something that is 'dead'

That was not clear to me, so I responded. This is silly. Shall we move on?

How do you repair split ends? My hair are very fine and damage easily. Nothing I have tried has worked. Any home/natural remedies.

What about damaged hair? Can we get rid of those? We should always look our best just like how our Guru jis have (especially Guru Gobind Singh ji).

How could anyone know, no faithful depictions were ever made
