Bleaching

[*** mkaur ***]

Fateh jeeo

my sister has hairs on her chin and she bleaches. she reckons that in guru jees days, women didnt have dharis, so its ok. i think this is totally wrong. wot do u guys think?

[Akaali]

Its wrong to bleach, pluck, dye your hair in any shape or form!

What gives you the idea that the Singhni'z in the time of Guru Gobind Singh ji didn't have hair? It wasn't that long ago, and we haven't progressed that further in life, to start having changes to the body.

This is a controversial issue, cuz being female and all its tough in society, I gave my two cents, I know it has been discussed many times, but what do you guys think?

If u ask me all truth.. I would say yeah.. It's all cool with me.. I don't think it's wrong.. Depends on personal choice..

Bleaching is same as dying of hair.. and according to most puratan rehatnamae, dying of hair makes one a thankaheea and dying of hair is considered a kurait.

Waheguru Jee..veera is right..bleaching/dying is prohibited. Plus looking at from a women's opinion

1) Of course women 'back then' had facial hair, but they were strong and graceful & didn't live for society.

2) Practically speaking all bleach does is lighten your facial hair, so basically it would be like having a blonde 'dhari' or blond upper lip hair. Are we pleasing society or Guru jee??

The soul-bride pleases her/his Husband-Lord when she shows beauty from within, when her face glows with the jewels of his naam & devotion...

[Mkhalsa]

yes.. about the blonde thing.. from a more practical perspective..

YOU ARE BROWN.. blonde hair stands out a LOT more than black/brown hair.. this is one reason i have a hard time understanding this bleaching fad...

I do not find anything wrong with a woman bleaching her hair. Why is almost everyone in here so militant and hardcore. If a woman wants to bleach, or wax her body hair, its her perogative. Who are we to judge? If a woman uncomfortable with facial hair, she should have the right to do what it takes to feel comfortable. I don't like the way the kuttard (hardcore) sikhs say something and expect every other sikh to follow it like its the law of the land. If you don't want to do something, than don't, but tell others what to do. Are you going to tell your wife that she can't bleach her hair?

Also, everytime I come to this forum, all I read are male points of view. Where are the female points of view?

So do i.. But i

respect other ppls views on it.. And i think they do have more good points than me..

In my case.. I would advice my SInghneee (*ifthere will be any lol) not to bleach.. But again it will be her choice..

I thought Summeet Kaur, Mkaur and so many others (5 +) on this forums are female?? :T:

[LionHeart]

OH MY GOODNESS. MY APOLOGIES.

I didn't know that there were so many women here (5).

That makes 5 women and like 300 guys. Don't try and get smart, because ur not Vicky.
