People believed that "hair" was given by parents and could not be shaved off casually. Therefore, both men and women had long hair at that time, but the way they tied their hair was different. A craftsman who cuts hair is called a barber. In ancient times, he was called a waiter or a tweezers worker, and commonly known as a barber or a barber. In ancient times, hairdressing meant washing the hair and combing it. Both men and women use combs and rakes to comb their hair. Until the Qing Dynasty entered the country. Ancient people tied their hair into a bun. When men and women reached adulthood, they had to perform the ceremony of adding a cap and a hairpin, and they had to tie their hair up. Criminals were punished by shaving their heads, or by only removing their beards and temples, which required special "comb workers". Because different dynasties had different methods of hair cleaning and hygiene, it had different names. In the Ming Dynasty it was called "combing the head", in the Qing Dynasty it was called "shaving the head", and there were also names such as "cutting the head" and "pushing the head". |
