Why not cut your hair on the first day?
The custom of not having a haircut in the first month has a great influence. People usually have their hair cut in the twelfth lunar month, and then wait until the second day of February before entering the barber shop. I replied, "It's just a superstition."
Legend has it that long ago, there was a poor barber who loved his uncle very much. However, in the first month, the barber worried that he had no money to buy a decent gift for his uncle. When it was time to visit relatives, the barber had a brainwave and came to my uncle's house with a razor pole to shave him carefully. When my uncle appeared before the party, all relatives and friends praised the barber's exquisite craftsmanship and said that my uncle looked much younger and more energetic. My uncle was very happy, saying that it was the best Chinese New Year gift for him, and agreed to give him a haircut in the first month of every year to see if there was any new progress in his craft. A few years later, my uncle passed away. Every January, the barber will cry for shaving his head, and he is sad that he can no longer be filial to his uncle ... "
Hearing this, I suddenly understood the boss's meaning: "You mean, this story was originally about shaving your head and thinking about my uncle in the first month."
"Yes," said the proprietress. "I don't know when this rumor came out, and' thinking' has become' death'. How many people have suffered because of the word difference! "
