In ancient times, the most important life etiquette of Han people was the "crown ceremony" of men and the "ceremony" of women. To put it bluntly, coronation ceremonies and gifts are just hair changes. Before the Qing Dynasty, Han men and women had full hair. Three months after the baby is born, they should choose the auspicious day of the Chinese zodiac and cut their hair once, leaving only two small pieces. These two small pieces of hair, the boy stays on the left and right sides, like a cow's head; One by one, girls, like horseheads, are called "Jimmy", and some leave only a handful according to the orientation of men and women.

After the cut hair grows out, it is no longer cut, but combed to both sides, and the eyebrows are long. This is called "second cut", so children are also called "children's cut". Or tie "two temminicks" together and tie them to your head, one on each side, which looks like a boy's horn, called "total horn"; A girl looks like a tree fork and is called "girl". Therefore, childhood is also called "the time of total angle", and young or low-ranking girls are also called "girls" and "girls".
