Payot
''Payot'' (also ''pe'ot'', ''peyot'', ''payos'', ''peyos'', peyois, payois; (ヘブライ語:פֵּאָה); ) is the Hebrew word for sidelocks or sidecurls. ''Payot'' are worn by some men and boys in the Orthodox Jewish community based on an interpretation of the Biblical injunction against shaving the "corners" of one's head. Literally, ''pe'ah'' means "corner, side, edge". There are different styles of ''payot'' among Haredi, Yemenite, and Hasidic Jews. Yemenite Jews call their sidelocks ''simonim'' (), literally "signs", because their long-curled sidelocks served as a distinguishing feature in the Yemenite society (differentiating them from their non-Jewish neighbors).
==Rabbinical interpretation==
The Torah says, "You shall not round off the ''pe'at'' () of your head" (Leviticus 19:27). The word ''pe'at'' was taken to mean the hair in front of the ears extending to beneath the cheekbone, on a level with the nose (Talmud – Makkot 20a). The Mishnah interpreted the regulation as applying only to men. Thus it became the custom in certain circles to allow the hair over the ears to grow, and hang down in curls or ringlets.〔''Jewish Encyclopedia''〕 According to Maimonides, shaving the sidelocks was a heathen practice.〔''Shulchan Aruch'', Yoreh Deah:181〕
There is considerable discussion in the halachic literature as to the precise location of the payot and of the ways in which their removal is prohibited.
