Question:
The day after immersion I felt the back of my hair and it was chalky/oily feeling. I did not put any conditioner in my hair before immersion, and I thought I had washed my hair well. It’s hard to feel greasiness/ buildup when hair is wet.
Is this a chatzitza?
Answer:
Hello,
Although we try to get rid of any chatzitza before immersing in the mikva, since you did shower well, in retrospect, what you didn’t notice will not be considered a chatzitza, because you aren’t that particular about this. Therefore, you are fine.
Best wishes
