Why are half of Japanese men bald? They learn clothes from the Tang Dynasty.

Daitou is a traditional hairstyle of ancient Japanese samurai. Because it's so weird, I believe many friends who have seen Japanese film and television works scoff at this hairstyle, and those who don't know it think it's baldness. Not only foreigners but also Japanese people like to talk about the moon on the forum. Although this hairstyle is ugly, Japan is a country that pays great attention to culture, and it has been perfectly preserved. Why are men still half bald when Japan learns clothes from the Tang Dynasty? The origin hypothesis is embarrassing.

The first thing we need to know is that influenced by China culture, the early Japanese learned the dress code of the Central Plains, so their hairstyles are the same as those of our ancestors. With the development of time, the hairstyle of Zhongyuan no longer meets the needs of Japanese people. According to Japanese tradition, you should wear armor and helmet when fighting. Think about it, a bun and a big helmet will be terrible to hit your head. Therefore, it can be said that the formation of the Yue dynasty can not be separated from years of war. The news was passed down from generation to generation, and the samurai found that the moon head was much more practical than the bun in the Central Plains. Slowly, this hairstyle became popular in Japan. As for the origin of the head of the moon generation, the Japanese themselves can't say clearly, and there are three more convincing hypotheses.

According to Japanese historical data, it can be inferred that the large-scale appearance of the Japanese Moon Dynasty was at the end of Heian, that is, 1 100. At this point in time, the Central Plains crossed the south, the northern Jurchen rose, and the Jin people occupied the great rivers and mountains of the Northern Song Dynasty. Although the regime changed, the Japanese who came to China from the East to do business did not stop their trade. When they came to the north, they found many jurchen wearing strange clothes. Because they don't know the inside story, and the rulers of China often pretend to be orthodox, the former began to follow the example of Nuzhen, and their hairstyles spread to Japan, and after improvement, they formed a look suitable for Japanese samurai.

In addition, there is another saying about the origin of the Yue dynasty that caters to the samurai mentioned above, that is, it is convenient to wear a hat to fight. Hair stays at both ends of the head instead of in the middle, so that the samurai hat can be attached to the head well, and no matter riding or fighting, it will not suffer. It is the shogunate who advocates the samurai to shave their heads. According to them, men leave their heads on the moon, and fighting will not affect their eyesight because of their hair. This is similar to the Manchu hairstyle in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. In his early years, the flag-bearer rode horses, shot arrows and Touma by cavalry, and the hair on his forehead blocked the line of sight, which was inconvenient, so he only left big braid at the tail to rest. Closer to home, it turns out that the Yue Dynasty, at the expense of beauty, did play a significant role in the battlefield. Having said that, why not shave it all off? It's more convenient to go to war with a bald head.

Finally, the most unconvincing argument is that the moonlight clan comes from baldness. Looking around the world, people who overuse their brains are often reflected in the number of hair. An able person who can win in a treacherous regime will certainly pay a certain price, that is, hair. Japan has inherited the clothes of the Central Plains, and baldness is detrimental to elegance. Therefore, senior elderly people use the new hairstyle as an excuse to cover up their embarrassment of hair loss.

Why would anyone put forward this hypothesis? According to Japanese historical records, the barren land in the middle of the Yue Dynasty was not shaved at all, but pulled out. That's right, pull them out one by one, leaving no roots. Of course, this statement is inevitably ridiculous, and not only the Japanese, but also any other nation will not admit it.
