Haircutting in the first month of the lunar calendar
In 1644, the Qing army entered China and forced the Han Chinese to shave their hair and keep their braids, so the Han Chinese used the phrase "not shaving their heads in the first month of the lunar calendar" to express their nostalgia for the previous dynasty and their resistance to the tyranny of the Qing dynasty, and they named this action "Si Gu" (Thinking of the past).
But with the passage of time, the word of mouth, the blackmail, the "Si Lao" harmonic echo into the "dead uncle", and so there is a folklore handed down to this day. To this day, most people still follow the tradition of not entering the barber shop in the first month of the year, people would rather in the first eight days of the lunar month or February 2 dragon head up the day to queue up to get a haircut, so that in addition to the factor of the New Year, most of the barber store in the first month of the business is very cold.
In a way, the custom of "not shaving the head in the first month" reflects a kind of loyalty and temperament.
