Washing impurity of one’s hair
Question
If a female’s hair becomes Napaak with blood etc. then does she have to wash and squeeze it 3 times or washing it once is sufficient?
Answer
She must wash it until the blood is completely removed. If this can be achieved with just one wash, then it will suffice. If further washing is required, then there is no harm in washing another one or two times so that one is convinced that the blood is removed. In conclusion, the objective is wash the blood out.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
