It's very, very late to say "haircut" In the early Qing Dynasty, in order to weaken the national consciousness of the Han people, the rulers repeatedly implemented the so-called "hair shaving order", forcing men of all ethnic groups across the country to shave their beards instead. To this end, some people fled overseas and some people fled into an empty door. Until the Revolution of 1911, some people had long braids and would rather be beheaded than have their hair cut off. It is difficult to change the tradition of an ancient nation, which may be the root of the Chinese nation.
This is a two-part allegorical saying that has been passed down to this day, and it seems that some clues can be seen. The so-called "carrying heat with a razor" is often used to describe the phenomenon that one side is enthusiastic and the other is indifferent in love between men and women, and it is also used to describe the wishful or unbalanced development of things in life. I want to really understand this idiom, and I must also understand what "shaving one's head with a load" means.
Once upon a time, "shaving one's head and carrying a load" was carried by a pole, with one end cold and the other hot. A stool with a rectangular cold end. There are two or three drawers in the middle of the stool legs, the upper drawer is used to put money, and the money is stuffed into the small holes opened on the stool surface; The lower drawer is usually used to hold "shaving" tools, such as cloth, knives and scissors. The hot end is a long round cage with a small stove and a large porcelain basin on it to keep a certain degree of heat. There are three legs under the stove, one of which extends upward into the flagpole, on which steel knives and towels are hung. It is said that the steel knife cloth was originally the imperial edict of the emperor, which read "Leave your head without hair, leave your hair headless!" " "Ten characters.
"Shaving one's head" is by no means a profession at first. The so-called "shaving one's head" is actually the executor of government decrees. It was not until people got used to it that it became a formal occupation. I can't remember where I read such a story that Li Wencai, the general of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, turned out to be a "barber". Before jintian uprising, he was ordered by God to open a barber shop in Guixian County, Guangxi, as an underground liaison station to contact people with lofty ideals in the world and strengthen the strength of the rebel army. On the opening day, leaders Feng Yunshan and Shi Dakai wrote couplets for it. Among them, Feng Yunshan's couplet is: "If you sharpen your knife, you can shave your head." Wipe it with the front, and the world will wait and see. " Between the lines, there is a heroic spirit. Shi Dakai's writing style is even more magnificent. "Sharpening the knife does not mistake the woodcutter, asking how many heads there are in the world; Wipe the front and see what the old man means. " Shaving the head shows a fearless fighting spirit of overthrowing the old world, which is widely circulated.
What's even more amazing is that in order to express his dissatisfaction with the dark politics of the Qing Dynasty, the old monk Xue An of the former Ming Dynasty wrote a poem entitled "Shaving Your Head". You can shave with a head, but you can't shave without a head. Scrape at will. He shaved. My head is still mine. The poor shave their heads, while others shave their heads. "Its injustice and indignation are beyond words. During the ten-year turmoil, playwright Xia Yan rewrote this poem in prison to show his protest against the Gang of Four. It must be true that he is a Taoist who is now playing pranks. Some people can be whole, whole adults, whole freedom, some people, people or me. Please look at those who cheat. People can cheat. "Interesting and meaningful. It not only expresses personal resentment, but also contains extremely profound philosophy.
With the development of society, "shaving" is gradually accepted by people. Often "shave" shaving, clean and refreshing, but also improve self-confidence and give people around you a refreshing feeling. There are many couplets about "haircut" in life, which reflect people's understanding of this new thing. Now I'll take some pairs to enjoy with you. "Come in untidy, go out radiant", "People who come in are full of opera champions, so they shouldn't scratch when they go", and "Take on a new look, cut off the old". These three couplets show the role of tonsure from the changes before and after tonsure, and their images are vivid. Another one is based on shaving, which gives people new enlightenment. These couplets of "creating the first-class career in the world, managing the injustice in the world" and "doing the best work in the world" are not only in line with the professional characteristics of shaving, but also ambitious and thought-provoking.
I remember once upon a time, in the countryside, there were many taboos and stresses on "shaving your head". For example, "babies don't shave their heads for a hundred days", "parents don't shave their heads for a hundred days after their death", "children don't shave their heads in the first month" and "they will shave their heads on February 2" and so on. I didn't know why because I was young. Sometimes I ask adults, and it's hard to say why. Now that I think about it, apart from safety and filial piety, most of them are just for conformity or traditional habits.
At that time, children as young as me used to shave their heads every time. When the razor was clear, they scraped some powder. They don't think their bottoms are stable yet, so the barber pats their heads and it's over. So he jumped into the pond and rushed over with a broken hair and white powder. It's really cool. So most boys like to shave their heads. Because it only appears once every 20 days or so, I sometimes wait and expect, and when I finally come, I will fight for the right line for fear that I can't scrape it. Of course, some people are afraid of shaving their heads. They are usually introverted and delicate children like big girls. Only when parents urged them several times or shouted "I won't shave" in their ears, forced them to sit down or simply stood and hummed until the end, could they stop.
How fast the times are developing! Nowadays, "haircut" has long been called "haircut" instead of "haircut", and there is a better name called "hairdressing" The change of this name is not only a literal change, but also reflects the development of society and the change of people's life concept. Nowadays, "hairdressing" is no longer a simple technical activity, nor is it just a simple shaving of hair or a whole dyeing with baking oil. It has developed into a rapid improvement process. With the rapid development of computer technology simulation-design-drawing, it has become a reality to carry out personalized design according to people's head, face, hobbies and needs. Nowadays, hairstyle has become a symbol of fashion and beauty!
