What is the ruling on a woman having a haircut, specifically cutting the hair from the front?

Question:
May Allah reward you with good. What is the ruling on a woman cutting her hair from the front in what is called a "cut"? Is there any issue with her doing this? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
This style of haircut is among the newly invented matters brought to us by modern civilization and imitating non-Muslim women, so it is not desirable. A woman's hair is her beauty, and she must preserve it. When performing the rites of Hajj or 'Umrah, she is commanded to take a small amount of hair, the size of a finger's width, even though it is a rite. This indicates that it is required of a woman to preserve her hair and keep it in good condition because it is her beauty, and because cutting it involves imitating women whom we are forbidden to imitate. She did not know this custom or this fashion except in these recent years when these traditions came from outside. Yes.
