Although "this day is the day of the year's break and important matters should not be handled", getting a haircut is not a big deal.

However, there is also a saying about haircuts in the beginning of spring.

Don't get a haircut on the beginning of spring, as it is unlucky. As the saying goes: Hair is the grass in the human body. When the weather warms up at the beginning of spring, grass begins to grow. To damage the newly born grass is against the principle of the growth of grasses in the operation of heaven and earth. Besides, out of 365 days in a year, why do you have to choose this day to get a haircut?
