I personally cringe when I see boys and especially men with tchups. I think they’re horrible, ugly

and they make the guy look like Ricky Ricardo or worse. It for sure is to copy the way of the gentiles

Fascinating Comment from the Chazon Ish Detailing His Halachic Perspective on Growing a ‘Tchup’ (Forelock)

The Chazon Ish states that it is permitted to grow a "tshup" for beauty reasons
( although not recommended)

I like the look on little boys, I think it’s adorable, but my family doesn’t wear it.

I personally cringe when I see little boys with their whole heads shaven except for their payos, which are grown long to their shoulders. We can all choose to either "personally cringe" or not micromanage every element of our lives so that we all look identical.

Live and let live, especially because, as you say, the Chazon Ish is okay with it. I'm not sure why this post exists.

The OP said forelocks so I am going to assume its when guys keep their peyot in the front of their ears maybe?

Does anyone have a picture? Or link to a picture? I can’t get a clear picture of what exactly a tchup is.

A tchup is extra long hair in front. We hold they arent permitted because they interfere with the proper placing of tefillin. That's why we have even short hair.

A tschup is bangs. Or hair long enough for a side part.

Anyone old enough to remember when a dip was in style for girls? That would be a tchup on boys.

I never knew a tchup is side only, I've seen them with hair straight down the forehead. It's basically long hair in the front.

In Lakewood it wasn’t frowned upon in the past
Recently DH heard a chassiddush rav speaking that in the Lakewood the boys are being influenced to grow the front of the hair. Because here it is acceptable.

(Tchup is long hair in the front - either bang or hair cut thicker in front with scissors instead of shaver)

My boys have tchup and no payis before they grow sideburns. Our rav said that is perfectly acceptable per our minhag. (We are yeshivish)
