How to wear a comb

How to wear a comb? Recently, JUNG WOO's new drama "The Daughter's Heart of Datang" is about to go online. I heard that it is a companion piece to Yan Xi Palace, but it is different from the intrigue of the general harem drama. This play is a cheerful light comedy.

Not long ago, fans who were heartbroken because of "Everything is OK" can just take a break from this drama ~

△ Follow the high sense of story of Yan Xi Palace.

As soon as the stills came out, many people said that headdresses and costumes were close to the Tang Dynasty and well-made.

However, Jie Bao's attention was completely attracted by the nursery. The hair accessories on her temples looked so gentle! Look carefully, it's not a gold hairpin, nor a hairpin, but actually two small gold combs.

△ The service road is really hard.

This is not the first time that JUNG WOO has worn a comb for the characters in the play. As early as "The Legend of Ban Shu" and "Made in Beauty", there were many scenes in which female characters wore combs.

△ The scene of wearing a silver comb in The Legend of Banshu.

△ In "Made in Beauty", Yang Rong wears a gorgeous red wooden comb.

In fact, the comb is inserted in the head, so this special hair accessory had a nice name in ancient times-comb (b √).

△ Combs can also be seen in the pictures of ladies in the Tang Dynasty.

Comb is one of the eight traditional hair accessories in ancient China, also known as comb. The other seven are: comb, hairpin, hairpin, pedal stone, rockhopper, Watson and hairpin. The ancients used to have long hair, so combing the comb was a daily necessity.

Comb is a general term. If subdivided, combs and combs are two different "handicrafts", with sparse teeth called "combs" and dense teeth called "combs".

△ I didn't expect the ancients to be quite romantic.

Combs are used for combing hair, which means "one comb to the end, two combs for white hair, Qi Mei, three combs for children". "Three combs" are mostly necessary for girls when they get married, symbolizing a happy marriage and family harmony.

Grate has more functions, which can be used to keep hair clean and radiant, and can also be turned into a "comb" to be inserted into hair as jewelry.

In ancient times, the grate was almost inseparable from the body, and women thought that "it looks good on the body." Grate can also stimulate scalp nerve, promote metabolism and prolong life.

At present, combs and grates are hardly introduced separately. Comb is generally called comb directly, and the entry grate is called "comb" (we will call it comb directly below).

△ Ancient comb culture is very strong.

Compared with the meaning of comb, comb has more meaning. It is the object of pinning thoughts and expressing emotions, and it is one of the important tokens of ancient love.

Ancient men would give combs to their beloved women before going out to war, and women would think of people when they saw combs. Combs have even been integrated into various customs and habits and become sacrificial supplies.
