Leviticus

Leviticus 13:31–33

³¹But if the priest examines the scaly infection and it does not appear to be deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, the priest shall isolate the infected person for seven days. ³²On the seventh day the priest is to reexamine the infection, and if the scaly outbreak has not spread and there is no yellow hair in it, and it does not appear to be deeper than the skin, ³³then the person must shave himself except for the scaly area. Then the priest shall isolate him for another seven days.
