Shaving on erev yom Kippur

Question:

Are you allowed to shave after chazos on erev yom Kippur . Thanks

Answer:

Yes you are allowed to shave on Erev Yom Kippur after chatzos. It is only on Erev Pesach that there is an issue with shaving, and that is because it is the time when everyone is supposed to bring a korban (the Korban Pesach), and when a person brings a korban it is considered a yom tom for him. All other “erev’s” are permitted with shaving and cutting nails etc.

Best Wishes
