Mori V'Rabi Harav Hagaon R. Shlomo Miller Shlita said*,

One may not take a haircut in the morning before
Tefilas Shachris שו"ע או"ח פ"ט ומשנ"ב שם

However, those who shave regularly, may on Lag Baomer 
(after נץ before שחרית) shave.

It might even be preferable to shave before Davening
so he will look presentable כעומד לפני המלך

Whose Minhag is it?

                   Whose Minhag is it?

 
R. Y. M. Tukaczhinsky zt"l (Sefer Eretz Yisroel 18-3) writes “ the
Sefardim & Chasidim celebrate Lag Baomer and light fires.”
 
Seems, non-Chasidic Ashkenazim have no such Minhag .(in E.Y.)
 
The מנחת אלעזר 4-60 (Chasidic Rebbe) writes, “ Lag Baomer
celebrations (music & dancing etc.) are only for Bnei  Eretz Yisroel.
In Chutz La'aretz, these celebrations are strange and haughty.
כזרות יחשב וכיוהרא  
 
 Seems, in Chutz La'aretz, even Chasidim have no Minhag of
celebrating Lag Baomer.

Not to deviate from your  Minhagim & Mesorah means
you don't search for & follow new Minhagim, your
parents/ grandparents haven't heard of or done so.
 

THE LAG BAOMER DARKEI EMORI FIRE DANCE

 


The תוספתא (Shabbos 7:1) enumerates practices
that are אסור  to do because they are considered דרכי אמורי.
One of them is clapping or dancing in front of a fire.

Dancing in front of a fire would be an איסור דאורייתא
of ובחקתיהם לא תלכו.

Some might claim that dancing in front of a fire on ל"ג בעומר
is an accepted מנהג בישראל, and they will argue that it can't
be wrong when you have thousands of Yidden & Rebbes
dancing around the fire.

The same argument was probably also used when there 
were thousands of Yidden worshipping the עגל הזהב.

Perhaps those planning to dance in front of the fire
should consult their מורה הוראה if this איסור דאורייתא is no
longer applicable today, and why not?

the Romans.

8) The

ל"ג בעומר celebration
has nothing to do with

ל"ג בעומר
celebration is
קצת שמחה of not saying תחנון

11) According to the  
מנחת אלעזר ח"ד:ס.the ל"ג בעומר
celebration is strictly a
מנהג ארץ ישראל Celebrating
in
חוץ לארץ is onsidered strange & arrogant. כזרות יחשב וכיוהרא 

12) When the 
מנחת אלעזר was in Eretz Yisrael during ל"ג בעומר
he spent the night in
צפת, not willing to celebrate in Meron
together with the Zionists.            

13) The 
תוספתא (Shabbos 7:1) says clapping hands or 
dancing in front of a fire is
אסור because of דרכי אמורי

ספרים of the previous generations, they only
mention of
מרבים בנרות (festive) and not the מדורה

18) Originally, it was only Muslim women who burned
their clothes

The Yidden later adopted this controversial Minhag.

19) It's not the lighting of the fire that's done
לכבוד רשב"י

to Meron  
ל"ג בעומר
