[Machine] Ibn Seerin said, "There is no harm in cutting the hair of the deceased."

وَقَالَ ابْنُ سِيرِينَ لاَ بَأْسَ أَنْ يُنْقَضَ شَعَرُ الْمَيِّتِ.

Um 'Atiyya said that they had entwined the hair of the daughter of Messenger of Allah ﷺ in three braids. They first undid her hair, washed and then entwined it in three braids."  

البخاري:١٢٦٠حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ أَيُّوبُ وَسَمِعْتُ حَفْصَةَ بِنْتَ سِيرِينَ قَالَتْ

حَدَّثَتْنَا أُمُّ عَطِيَّةَ ؓ أَنَّهُنَّ جَعَلْنَ رَأْسَ بِنْتِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثَلاَثَةَ قُرُونٍ نَقَضْنَهُ ثُمَّ غَسَلْنَهُ ثُمَّ جَعَلْنَهُ ثَلاَثَةَ قُرُونٍ
