Question

A mourner within the thirty days for his brother, whose hair is very long, is he allowed to cut his hair to avoid obstruction for Tefillin?

Answer

A mourner should not cut the hair on his head even if he fears it may be an obstruction, and he should not comb the hair against its natural growth.
