Can Tomb-Sweeping Day shave his head?

Tomb-Sweeping Day and Mid-Autumn Festival are both called "Ghost Festival", which is a cloudy day, and Tomb-Sweeping Day is not suitable for children to have their hair cut. Haircuts are not allowed in Tomb-Sweeping Day and Mid-Autumn Festival in some areas.

Therefore, people think that the deceased will only get a haircut when he is buried. When Tomb-Sweeping Day is full of Yin qi, cutting hair will attract the attention of ghosts, so cutting hair on this day is taboo. But this statement has no scientific basis.

Tomb-Sweeping Day can get a haircut. According to the Gregorian calendar, there is no taboo to cut hair on this day. Qingming is one of the 24 solar terms in China. According to the solar calendar, every year between April 4th and 6th.

As a solar term, Qingming is in most parts of China. The winter with withered trees has passed, and the weather is sunny and willow green, so it is called Qingming. Tomb-Sweeping Day can find a suitable day to have her hair cut according to her own needs.

The situation that you can't get a haircut:

It is said that in some early areas, people couldn't get a haircut on the Mid-Autumn Festival, because it was thought that the deceased would get a haircut after being buried. Therefore, people are afraid that getting a haircut on the ghost night of Mid-Autumn Festival will attract the attention of ghosts and lead to death, so they dare not get a haircut on this day. Of course, with the changes of the times, many people don't mind this now.

In the old society, there were many taboos in folk customs, such as "No shaving in the first month". In the first month of the summer calendar, although the boy's hair is crazy long, it can't be violated at all, otherwise it will be bad for my uncle. "I shaved my head in the first month and died." What a terrible responsibility. My uncle's safety depends on his nephew's head. It was not until the second day of February in the summer calendar that the boy was free to shave his head.
