3634 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ حَازِمٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: «كَانَ شَعَرُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ شَعَرًا رَجِلًا بَيْنَ أُذُنَيْهِ وَمَنْكِبَيْهِ»

Commentary
His hair was neither curly nor very straight but it was slightly wavy. When he cut his hair short, it reached his earlobes, when grew longer, sometimes it even reached his shoulders. The Prophet ﷺ used to shave his head in Hajj and Umrah.
