There is a custom in marriage called open face, how many times?

Opening the face can be done once.

Opening the face is generally referred to as face-painting. When the word "beauty" had not yet been born and spread in our lives, there was "face-painting".

Previously, when a woman got married, she would invite a "face-raking master" (a woman from a family with a beautiful family) to face-rake the bride, pulling out the sweaty hairs on the bride's forehead and sideburns, in order to give her a fresh look and wish her a happy marriage.

The ancient craft of strangling the face has been around since ancient times, and is a boudoir craft, passed down from mother to daughter and from generation to generation, and in the absence of modern beauty technology, this craft has been practiced almost all over the country.

With only two threads, it is possible to twine away the tiny sweaty hairs on a person's face and neck, as well as trim eyebrows to make them more beautiful. After receiving the stranded face, a person's face will become polished and elastic.

The process of opening the face:

The "strangler" first applies powder on the customer's face (earlier, when technology was not developed, a little top-grade lime or other powders were used; today, cosmetics such as foundation are used).

Then he takes out a piece of twine, pulls it into a figure-eight shape, and holds one end of the figure-eight with his right thumb and forefinger, while his left hand tugs at one end of the thread and bites the other end in his mouth.

The right thumb opened and closed, biting the mouth of the line and the left hand with the right hand, so the figure of eight set in the face to pull around, until the sweat hair was pulled out, a clean face presented.

"Twisted face teacher" and then the customer's eyebrows into the shape of crescent eyebrows or princess eyebrows. The facial hair can make the face clean, and then the sweat hair will be fine, and over time, the hair follicles will shrink, and you can get a long-lasting beauty effect.
