Thanks to all those who clarified for me, both in the Chazal (RushLimbaugh, does CHAZAL state that CHAZAL believes that to be the reason, or just reiterates that SHE said so and does not disagree with her – there is a subtle difference). I appreciate the information on the scalp issue. Very interesting. Also, now that I think of it, I recall ebing told that the shaving the head issue related to the women of Europe being attacked.
“OOmis -“For others, it makes their wigs fit better.”
Oh, so they shave their head for this reason? How about using screws or nails directly into the scalp? This would make more sense than shaving their head! “
Health, that is just plain silly!!! There ARE women who keep their hair cropped VERY, VERY short for exactly that reason. Alm ost to the point of shaved heads. I know this for a fact, because I come in contact with them all the time.
