What were the taboos regarding hair cutting and shaving in the old days?

Among the Han nationality and many ethnic minorities, there is a custom that prohibits cutting hair and shaving beards during funerals. When someone dies in the family, men are not allowed to have their hair cut or shave for a month or a hundred days once they learn the bad news. One of the beliefs is that hair and beard are inherited from parents, so people do not discard them when their ancestors pass away, to show filial piety and to express grief and longing. Some say that it is to recall the sadness of the deceased and not to think about tidying up their appearance to show filial piety. Others say that not cutting hair or shaving is to change one's appearance so that the dead cannot recognize them and avoid disaster. The first two statements are both related to etiquette and are relatively close, and are the spread and influence of Confucianism. The latter theory is related to the popular belief that hair and beard are related to the soul, and that hair and beard can harm one's body through witchcraft. Not only are haircuts and shavings prohibited during funerals, there are also many other taboos. For example, the Ewenki people have the custom of not getting a haircut or shaving in the afternoon. I wonder if it has something to do with the return of the soul, or maybe they are worried that getting a haircut or shaving in the afternoon will change their appearance and the soul will not be able to return to their body smoothly. The Han ethnic group also has the custom that nephews are forbidden to get a haircut at their uncle's house. It is said that if a nephew gets a haircut at his uncle's house, it will "harm his uncle." "Jiu" is homophonic with "jiu", which means old people. According to "Er Ya". "Shu" says: "Jiu means old; Gu means former. Jiugu is a term for elderly people." (See also "Baihutongyi") It can be seen that to hinder the uncle is to hinder the old, which means to hinder the elderly. This custom was once popular in the Central Plains regions such as Henan, Hebei and Shandong. It is especially taboo in the first month of the year.
