Beauty ramble

When people reach middle age, their thoughts and behaviors seem to be returning. For example, getting a haircut, I'm tired of looking for fond memories of my childhood in the hair salon.

? On Fuchun Street in Kunming, there is a barber shop left over from the old state-run era. The master is an old lady who is nearly 60 years old. The shop is simple: old-fashioned seats, razors, hot water taps, hot towels and cream. The masters listen to the songs of the Red Guards in Honghu Lake or movies like Notre Dame. Shops seem to have solidified in the 1970s. I found this place and like it here. I washed my hair, cut my hair and shaved in 20 minutes. Master has good basic skills, especially shaving, trimming eyebrows and shaving nose hair. It's really "a knife in the face, no sound"! One of them is an apprentice of Long Yun Royal Barber, who gave a haircut to Fu, a lecturer in Long Yun. Every time 10 ocean can keep a hair from falling.

People in China have a history of haircut. The ancients said: "The parents who suffer from skin damage dare not damage it, and filial piety begins." Han people no longer shave their heads when they are adults, and both men and women wear their hair in a bun. When Cao Cao marched in the Three Kingdoms, his mount mistakenly stepped on the farmland and was beheaded according to law. Cao Gong wanted to commit suicide, and people advised him to cut his hair to death. Napoleon dominated Europe, defeated Prisoner's Island, and died sadly. Cut off a few strands of hair and give it to your loved ones as a souvenir, which is more precious than getting tens of thousands of francs. On the side of the ancient road outside the pavilion, lovers say goodbye, and spoony women often have a wisp of blue silk and a drop of tears, and interpret the touching story of "holding hands to see tears, nothing to say".

The most hateful thing is that the Manchus moved to the Central Plains, and a paper "haircut order" made the Han people who had long recognized Manchu rule rise up and resist. The Eight Banners soldiers were like wolves, creating a bloody tragedy of "Jiading Three Slaughters" and "Yangzhou Ten Days". From then on, the Han people began to shave their heads in 260, and the barber profession was born. After the Republic of China, the west wind gradually rose, and the "pig tail" was thrown into the Pacific Ocean. But when I was playing at my grandmother's house, I saw an old man with a braid hanging on the back of his head, which was white and messy, and his hairstyle was different from that of the villagers. I was lonely and suspicious, and I didn't know he was a Manchu survivor until I grew up.

How many times a person has physiological hair doesn't count. But twice is especially important. The fetal hair shaved for the first time after the baby is born is particularly precious, so be careful to preserve it. When you are old and dying, you should shave and get a haircut and be reborn cleanly. If the hair is messed up, the child will be regarded as unfilial, and the deceased will be regretted and pitied, lamenting the bleak future. A haircut is a big deal.

When I was a child in the countryside, I played around all day, and I didn't want to care when my hair grew. Every time I get a haircut, it's like killing a pig. One hundred people are reluctant to part with it. They are often held by their mothers in the chair of Master Wang in the village, washing their hair and playing soap, and their eyes are so fascinated that they feel uncomfortable. The razor rattled on the sharpened canvas by Master Wang, and the manual scissors occasionally caught the hair, which made people grin with pain, once cutting 1 minute. Before liberation, Master Wang had a haircut in Hu Zongnan army, and his skills were first-class. With his skill, the whole family lived in the countryside at that time.

With the reform and opening up, Hong Kong and Macao began to become popular, and the old method of "shaving your head with fever" was replaced by various hair salons, which were covered with photos of fashionable hairstyles of celebrities, especially in the early 1980s, men and women wearing "fancy clothes" and wearing various fashionable hairstyles paraded through the streets, attracting attention or secretly admiring them. At that time, spending a few dollars on a haircut was a big expense. Later, a haircut cost tens of hundreds, some thousands. Later, hair salons seemed to pay no attention to hair. Every night, in some back streets and alleys, scantily clad girls sit in dimly lit hair salons, waving to passers-by frequently with low eyebrows.

? Those who can write a few words and draw a few strokes like to have long hair and are deliberately messy, showing the artist's style. Female movie stars such as Wenjing also shave their heads. I don't know if they want to become monks or pretend to be cool. The "bad guys" in movies are often bald images, such as Hu Hanshan and the captain of Japan. Nowadays, many bosses and corporate executives are also popular with baldness, which is said to be a sign of successful people. Everything has changed in the economic tide.
