The Nine Days
The Nine Days begin on Rosh Chodesh Av - Monday 8/5
According to R. Soloveitchik the mourning of the Nine Days mirrors Shloshim, the 30 days that follow the burial of a loved one. All prohibitions of the 3 weeks apply to the nine days. Plus, we take a much stricter stance with regard to music. The prohibitions of the Nine Days continue through midday on the day after Tisha b'Av (8/14).  

Note: This year since the day after the fast is Friday the prohibitions against laundry and haircuts end already on Thursday night/Friday morning and one need not wait until midday.  

1. Laundry - 2 prohibitions apply here:  (1) to launder clothes.  (2) wearing freshly laundered clothing 
• One may wash children's clothing. 
• One may wear laundered undergarments.
• One may wear laundered clothes on Shabbos. 

2. Shaving is prohibited 
• If there is potential loss of profit from work, one may shave. 

3. One should not seek to expand business activities or build during the nine days. 
• Exceptions are made for davar ha-aved - monetary loss
and necessity. 

4. Bathing for pleasure is prohibited. It is permitted for cleanliness. 
Swimming for exercise would be permitted.

5. Meat and wine are prohibited 
• One may eat meat and drink wine on Shabbos. 
• If possible, Havdalah should be drunk by a child. However, if no child is available, the one reciting the blessing may drink it. 
• One may eat meat and drink wine on the occasion of a Bris Milah or a Siyyum.
