Shaving in Judaism
In Judaism, shaving with a razor is a prohibition that is based on rabbinic interpretation of Leviticus 19:27, which states, "You shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard." The Mishnah interprets this as a prohibition on using a razor on the beard.〔 Talmud, Makot 20a〕 This prohibition is further expanded upon in kabbalistic literature.〔"The punishment for this (with a razor ) is delineated by the holy Zohar and the books of the Mekubalim and is considered a great and terrible sin, among the most grievous." -- ''Shaving With a Razor'', by Rabbi Meir Gavriel Elbaz, http://halachayomit.co.il/EnglishDefault.asp?HalachaID=2355, dated Jan. 4, 2012〕 The halakhic prohibition applies to shaving off the ''pe'ot'' (sidelocks) and ''corners of the beard'' by means of a razor.
==In the Torah==
The book of Leviticus in the Torah makes mention of ''corners of the head'' and prohibits the ''marring'' of the ''corners of the beard'', with particular emphasis on priests not ''marring'' the ''corners of the beard''; as with many other parts of Leviticus, the Book of Ezekiel describes different regulations, stating that the priests should not shave their heads, or let their locks grow long.
However, there were exceptions, with the Book of Ezekiel itself adding that priests should keep their hair trimmed,〔 and Leviticus arguing that, in certain cases of tzaraath, the beard and hair should be completely shaved away. Numbers(Ch. 6) additionally requires that Nazarites shave their heads, 7 days after any contact with corpses.
