Note: The following statements are all rumors.

Rumor 1: You can't wash your hair on New Year's Eve.

Old people think that you can't wash your hair from New Year's Day to New Year's Day, because washing your hair on this day will lead to wealth and blessings being washed away. At the same time, because the first day to the third day is the birthday of the water god, you can't pour water, but this is actually fake.

Proverbs 2: What other taboos are there on New Year's Eve?

No new year's greetings

Also known as Red Dog Day, it is an unlucky day to avoid New Year greetings. A red dog is an angry god, and every misfortune turns into good luck. So people usually stay at home on this day to avoid meeting fierce people. Therefore, it is not appropriate for relatives or friends to go out to pay New Year greetings.

(2) avoid lighting

This is the day when the mouse gets married. You must turn off the lights and go to bed early after dark, so that the mouse family can hold a wedding. Sprinkle the room with salt and rice. This is called "mouse sharing". In the past, during the Spring Festival, that is, from the New Year's Eve to the second day of the second day, the house would be brightly lit for three consecutive days. After three days of contact, all the lights at home were turned on, indicating that the population is prosperous. But on the third day of the new year, there is no need to light a lamp.

(3) breaking things

Don't break anything next year. If you do this, say be safe. This is to remind everyone not to get carried away, to be careful and to be lucky.

(4) scold children

Don't swear.

Proverbs 3 Precautions for Shampooing on New Year's Eve

(1) Before shampooing, comb your hair to loosen the dirt and scales on your scalp.

(2) Wet the hair until the bottom hair is as wet as the top hair. Pour the shampoo into the palm of your hand and dilute it with water and foam. Don't pour shampoo directly on your hair, it will over-stimulate your scalp and produce dandruff.

(3) Rub the shampoo evenly into the hair with your fingertips and gently massage with your fingertips until a thick layer of foam is formed.

(4) Rinse the hair until it is thoroughly rinsed. Then add a teaspoon of shampoo to foam again, gently rub the scalp, this time clean the hair roots, and then rinse with water.

(5) Wipe the essence from the scalp to the hair end, gently massage it, and then wash it off completely.
