# Some authorities permit [[shaving]] in honor of Yom HaAtzmaut, however, some disagree. <ref> Rabbi Eliezer Melamed (Peninei Halacha “Yom HaAtzmaut”) writes that those who shave regularly should shave prior Yom HaAtzmaut in order to look presentable for the holiday. He also quotes Rav Yitzchak Nissim and Rav Tzvi Yehuda HaCohen Kook who agreed. Shana Beshana (5752, p. 145) quotes Rav Tzvi [[Pesach]] Frank as agreeing. Shana B’shana (5752, p. 145) quotes Rav Tzvi [[Pesach]] Frank as agreeing. Rav Shaul Yisraeli in Mareh HaBezek 4:54 permits [[shaving]] from after midday prior to Yom HaAtzamaut even for those living outside [[Israel]]. However, Yaskil Avdi 6:10 and Rav Soloveitchik (quoted by Rav Schachter in Nefesh HaRav p. 94) argue.</ref>

# Some authorities opposed the minhag to say paragraphs from [[Kabbalat Shabbat]], Tehillim of [[Shabbat]] [[davening]] into Pesukei DeZimrah, and Haftorah without [[Brachot]]. <ref>Rav Soloveitchik (quoted by Rav Schachter in Nefesh HaRav p. 94-6) disagreed with these minhagim because they didn't have any source in halacha and failed to incorporate the significance of Yom HaAtzmaut with these minhagim.</ref>
