What's the saying about shaving in the first month?

A haircut is not recommended for the first month.

There is a custom in the Spring Festival called "Don't have a haircut in the first month, Uncle Ke, when the haircut is done, the dragon will look up in February", which means that you can't shave your head and have a haircut from the first day of the first month of the Spring Festival to the first day of the second month of the lunar calendar, otherwise it will be bad for your grandfather at home. Of course, people who don't care about traditional ideas will still get a haircut in the first month, which mainly depends on their personal situation.

"No haircut in the first month" is related to the historical haircut order. The Han people agreed not to have their hair cut in the first month to express their thoughts about the dynasty, and this homonym of "thinking of the old" was misrepresented as "dead uncle". Therefore, many people are afraid to shave their heads in the first month, for fear of affecting their uncles at home, so they will say, "No haircut in the first month, but the haircut is not good."
