My Hubby is having a receding hairline and he says he would rather be bald by choice than worry about receding hairline.So he wants to keep his head shaved smooth.

I suggested him that he should get his head shaved for the first time at Tirupati.

Now the question I have is :

I have seen all the guys going to Tirupati grow their beards and not have their haircuts for 2-3 months.

Is it a must?Should I also ask him to grow his beard and not have his haircut for next 2-3 months?

Also is it a must to shave one' s Moustache? Suguna replied. Hi Sujatha, its not necessary you can take your husband as it is no need to grow hear and beard. Its a kind of belief which people carry with them. So do not worry go as it is Hardik replied. I don't think it is necessary to grow one's beard to get his head shaved in tirupati. Just the moustache will also do. I have seen many people who get their heads shaved without having beard or moustache so there is no compulsion. sonu replied. Hey Sujatha, its not important to grow hair before going to tirupati. You can tell your husband to directly go and get it done. Suji replied. Hello Sujatha,
So then what you have done can you share about that but it would be better to clarify all such doubts by your parents or in laws or through any priest so that your doubts will be cleared also.I wish you would comment on this. rajveer replied.

Thanks. danuja replied. your husaband headshave at tirupathi is done or not Tina Rao replied. what do you mean by hair fetsih Tina Rao replied. hi all iam myself tina rao

i have different problem that is i dont know why i loke to get my head shaved regularly ... Tina Rao replied. hi Radha replied. The main purpose of shaving one' s head in religious places like Tirupati is removing one' s ego in front of God. What is the purpose of removing head hair if mush is kept which a symbol of male ego? No, for a fruitful religious tonsure, the mush, the beard and the head hair - all have to go. Only a very small tuft on the crown of head can be left uncut as some Northies do.
A razor shave on the head should be done either at a religious place or during a bereavement. So it is appropriate that you are asking ur hubby to shave first in Tirupati. After that ask him to get a close buzz cut (with zero clippers) than a razor shave. saravana replied. hi sujatha
i saw your postings.you have decided to go your husaband headshave at tirupathi.if it is a vow pl dont cut hair or shave for 2 or 3 months.if it is not a vow dont care about. kiran replied. It' s a good decision that he wants to shave his head smooth. encourage him.

Since it is not a vow, it is not mandatory to get it at Tirupati only.
Visiting a local barber shop or asking the barber to visit your home will get the work done. Better get it at home because barber can devote more time to make it smooth by doing shaving the entire head twice or thrice in all possible directions.

If you prefer it in Tirupati:

he need not have to grow his beard and avoid his regular haircuts just for his purpose, because it is not a vow.

Regarding moustache:

If it is in Tirupati better he remove his beard and moustache along with head shave. If it is a local head shave it' s upto your like. But a bald head without moustache gives a good look.

best of luck. archana replied. hi sujatha,
Its a gr8 idea of shaving his head and also planning of maintaing it to be clean shaved. As u people have a plan of shaving ur head at tirupati its a gud to grow his hairs and beard for a couple of days or months and then u shave at tirupati the same way was done by us and i also joing my husband to shave along with him its a suggestion that u can also join him for a shave u can feel so gr8 and happy after shave..
