A complex square matrix $A$ is said to be Hermitian if $A= A^{\ast}$, the conjugate transpose of $A$. The topic of the present note is concerned with the characterization of Hermitian matrix. In this note, the we show that each of the two triple matrix product equalities $AA^{\ast}A = A^{\ast}AA^{\ast}$ and $A^3 = AA^{\ast}A$ implies that $A$ is Hermitian by means of decompositions and determinants of matrices, which are named the two-sided removal and cancellation laws associated with Hermitian matrix, respectively. We also present several general removal and cancellation laws as the extensions of the preceding two facts about Hermitian matrix.
