Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And in her other question, she asks: To what extent is it prescribed for a woman to shorten her hair, the hair on her head?

Answer:
She does not shorten the hair on her head except in Hajj or 'Umrah, to the extent of a finger's width, and as for anything beyond that, she leaves her head as it is. Let not following custom and imitating others lead her to messing with the hair on her head. Yes.
