The story of haircut

Shaving one's head rose after the Qing dynasty entered the customs. Legend has it that one year, Yong Zhengdi had a sore on his head and felt uncomfortable when combing his hair. He suspected that the eunuch combed his hair and killed several eunuchs in succession.

At that time, there lived a Taoist named Luo in Baiyun Temple in Beijing. He sympathized with the innocent victims, so he tried to make a barber knife, a barber knife, a comb for braiding hair, a comb and other hairdressing tools, and explored a set of operating methods such as pressing, patting and holding, which were taught to eunuchs to comb their hair.

Eunuch used these tools and methods to shave Yong Zhengdi's head and braid his hair, which made Yong Zhengdi feel very comfortable. Ask the reason, the eunuch who played last time was taught by Taoist Luo.

Yongzheng gave Taoist Luo the title of "driving half a dynasty and being a small deacon". Taoist Luo became the barber's grandfather. After his death, he was buried in Baiyun Temple, now the "Luogong Pagoda". Yongzheng named him a "real person". The ancestor who worshipped in the barber shop in his early years was this Taoist Luo.
