Halq and Taqsir are the final steps of Umrah, done after completing Tawaf and Sa’i.

Halq means shaving the entire head and is recommended for men.

Taqsir means trimming a small portion of the hair and is also allowed, especially for those not doing Hajj.

Women only perform Taqsir by cutting a small portion of their hair, usually from the end. This act symbolizes humility and renewal, and it marks the completion of Umrah.
