Groom divorces bride for cutting her hair

A Saudi bride who decided to get rid of her long her just a few days before the wedding party phoned the groom and told him she had her hair cut short. Instead of applauding her, he divorced her.

The unnamed bride was advised by the hair cutter not to have a cut on the grounds she has beautiful hair, but she told her that she was tired of caring for her long hair.

“She had a hair cut called the 'Strawberry Cut' which made her hair look very short.
"She then phoned her groom and happily told him she has had a short hair cut,” 'Okaz' Arabic language daily said in a report from the Western town of Medinah.

“The groom was suddenly mad. He told her to put her cut hair in a plastic bag as a souvenir and divorced her. He said that his dream was to marry a woman with a long hair and that she was no longer the dream wife.”
