Because ancient people thought that the skin of the body was given by their parents, they dared not damage it (except cutting their nails), so both men and women kept long hair for life.

"Broken hair" means to cut (trim) hair, which is similar to "vertebral bun" and "drooping hair". It is a popular hairstyle of the ancient Yue people (that is, the ancestors of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong and Qionggui today). Guyue people not only cut their hair, but also often changed their hair styles, sometimes very short and sometimes very long. This custom made the Central Plains people who never had a haircut at that time very curious.

Cutting a tattoo means cutting your hair short and cutting your tattoo short. "Tattooing and losing hair" is a common way of life of Baiyue residents who lived in the southern coastal area of Baiyue (or Okawa) from ancient times to Qin dynasty. At the same time, tattooing dragons on their bodies is also a reflection of totem worship of Guyue people.
