Comment: << review queue entry 56130 - submitted by 'd5000' >>
There is already an entry for 七七 (from which the definition in this dictionary has been copied verbatim), to which I propose adding 頭七.
https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%81%9A%E4%B8%83
There appear to be other usages (燒七, 齋七 etc.), but I am only familiar with 七七 and 頭七.

Editor: 頭七 is not the same as 七七. moreover our entry for 七七 is nonsensical.
Diff:
# 頭七 头七 [tou2 qi1] /seven sevens (equals 49) / cf Buddhist services for the auspicious reincarnation of the departed/
+ 頭七 头七 [tou2 qi1] /the 7th day after a person's death/the first 7-day period after a person's death/
