Question: What is the reason Jewish men cover their head. Should Jewish men not shave their face?

Answer: Jewish men cover their head as a way of reminding them to be aware of G-d watching them always. Women, who are naturally more spiritual, don’t need this constant reminder.

While it is considered a Jewish attribute to have a beard and it is very much preferred according to Kabbalah, there is no obligation to have one. One cannot shave with a razor, however -only a shaver. (A razor destroys the hair at its root while a shaver is merely like close scissors) One may also not use a shaver above where one’s jaw is connected to one’s cheekbone (about halfway up the ear, if you swallow a bone will pop out.) and above going to one’s temple area. Those are the parameters set by Jewish law.
