UNROUNDED PEYOS

I think K may be taking her latest fashion tips from the Chasidic Jews in Williamsburg. I snapped this picture after dinner last night. She of coarse being deaf to the fact she had unintentionally created a perfect natural ringlet curl.

The Torah says, "You shall not round off the peyos of your head" (Leviticus 19:27). The word peyos refers to sideburns -- i.e. the hair in front of the ears that extends to underneath the cheekbone which is level with the nose.
