Is it permissible for a woman to cut her hair shoulder length to please her husband?

Question

also is it permissible for her to trim her eyebrows if they get too long for looking beautiful for her husband? JazakAllah

Answer

1. It is not permissible for a female to cut her hair. If her hair is long,
she should look after it by plaiting it and combing it. Kindly refer 'Woman
Cutting her Hair'
2. No, it is not permissible for females to pluck their eyebrows. Rasulullah
(Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) cursed a Mutanammisa (a female who seeks to
remove her eyebrows).
