There is a custom that dragons look up and get a haircut. Is it okay to have a perm without cutting your hair?
As the saying goes, "the dragon doesn't look up, it doesn't rain." The dragon is auspicious and the master of weathering rain. On the second day of the second month of the lunar calendar, people pray for dragons to raise their heads to make rain and moisten everything, which is called "shaving the faucet on February 2" in history. It is generally believed in China that shaving one's head on this day will bring good luck. Therefore, the folk proverb says, "Blowing the tap on February 2nd will make you feel refreshed all year round". On February 2, every barber shop was full of customers and the business was booming.
There is a folk saying that my uncle died in the first month of his haircut. Therefore, many people don't go to the barber shop for a month after cutting their hair in the twelfth lunar month, and the ban was not lifted until February 2. However, this folk taboo has gradually faded in recent years. February 2 is the day when the dragon was stung to heaven. People in China always regard dragons as their totems. This day "shaving the dragon's head" reflects people's good wish to pray for the dragon's blessing.
