No. The only time shearing will hurt the sheep is if the operator is rough, careless, or very inexperienced, and if the sheep is not restrained properly, allowing it to struggle through the process. Otherwise, shearing is very good for the sheep because it gets that heavy coat of wool off and makes the animal more comfortable in the summer heat. Experienced shearers are really good at quickly shearing sheep without hurting the animal at all.
