When was the first month when you didn't shave your head?
Not shaving your head in the first month refers to the custom of "not shaving your head in the first month, shaving your uncle to death", which originated before and after the Qing court issued an order. In fact, this custom belongs to misinformation. At that time, not cutting hair meant "thinking about the past", a custom that spread from the late Ming Dynasty to the early Qing Dynasty. In the Qing dynasty, the government ordered all people to shave their heads. Some people miss the old dynasty, so they don't have their hair cut in the first month to show their nostalgia for the past history. However, at that time, it was impossible to openly confront the imperial court, so the custom of "beheading uncle in the first month" was derived, which has been misinformed to this day.
The core of China folk culture is a kind of "human culture", which pays attention to filial piety, friendship and respect. This cultural background makes the original "misinformation" still in use today. With the progress of society, we should also choose the inheritance of "saving customs", pay more attention to understanding the connotation of culture, and don't let the "misunderstanding" passed down from generation to generation affect our normal life. In recent years, the rule of not having a haircut in the first month has gradually faded in big cities, but on a larger scale, this ancient "old custom" still exists, which requires people to update their concepts and accept new changes.
