ANSWER:

What your mother has said is absolutely baseless.

No problem whatsoever in keeping your hair loose at home or in front of other women and your mahrams.

My mother tells me to tie my hair at home because she says that jinn can possess me if i don’t tie my hair. although it is true that jinn are attracted to hair, but i don’t think it is necessary to tie hair at home at least. but i wanted to confirm, do i have to tie my hair at home to be protected from jinn?
