In folk customs, if you get a haircut in the first month of the lunar calendar, your uncle will die.The main reason why people are not allowed to shave their heads on the second day of the second lunar month is that when the Qing army entered the pass, in order to consolidate the Qing Dynasty's ruling position, a "hair-shaving order" was issued to show their loyalty to the Qing Dynasty. All Han people were required to shave their heads. Dorgon also ordered free haircuts for Han people at various city gates in Beijing and places where crowds gathered. However, many people said, "I would rather be a ghost with tied hair than a man with a shaved head." This is to show their loyalty to the previous dynasty and keep their hair to "remember the past." Later generations gradually changed the saying "If you don't shave your head in the first month of the lunar year, you will miss the past" into "If you shave your head in the first month of the lunar year, your uncle will die." So gradually, there is a saying among the people that if you get a haircut in the first month of the lunar year, your uncle will die. Can I get a haircut when the dragon raises its head?Yes, you can get a haircut on the Dragon Raising its Head ceremony. It is a custom to get a haircut on that day.Shaving the dragon's head refers to getting a haircut on the second day of the second lunar month. Getting a haircut on children is called shaving a "happy head". It takes advantage of the auspicious moment when the dragon raises its head to bless the children with healthy growth and success when they grow up. Getting a haircut on adults is a way to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, hoping to bring good luck and a smooth year. On the second day of the second lunar month, the most important folk custom is "shaving the dragon's head". No matter whether it is the old or the young, everyone will cut their hair and trim their faces to make themselves look brand new, which indicates that they can pray for good luck for the whole year. From early morning, some barbershops are crowded with customers coming and going, and the barbers are busy. The reason why many people choose to cut their hair on this day is because there is a folk custom that it is unlucky to shave your head in the first month of the lunar year, so many people generally cut their hair once before the New Year and then wait until the second day of the second month to "cut the old hair." |
