# The common practice is that woman do not perform [[hatarat nedarim]] and rely on the Kol Nidrei said prior to [[Yom Kippur]].

In fact, the text that we use explicitly mentions that one seeks absolution of his own vows as well as the vows of his wife. Furthermore, women customarily attend the Kol Nidreh service on Yom Kippur, which is also effective in annulling one’s vows.</ref>
