Whether looking up historical materials or watching film and television dramas, men in the Qing Dynasty always had long braids on the back of their heads, while the first half was polished. This head shape is unique to Manchu families all over the world! Their names are different! The first kind: the head of Yin and Yang China believed in Yin and Yang in ancient times, and thought that everything in the world could be divided into Yin and Yang, which were two complementary opposites. What's more, he drew a fish-shaped black-and-white Taiji diagram. The shape of the head in the Qing dynasty just fits this point. He shaved off the first half and left the second half with long hair, which was in sharp contrast, just like the polarization of Yin and Yang, so it was commonly called "Yin and Yang Head". After the Manchu entered the customs, in order to facilitate management. Forced the Han men at that time to keep this kind of yin and yang head! A special "haircut order" was issued, and anyone who did not obey the haircut and braiding was beheaded. It also caused the historical tragedy of 1645 "Jiading Three Slaughters". After the fall of the Qing regime, that special period. Yin and Yang have evolved into an insulting practice. At that time, the head of yin and yang was not front and back, but left and right, and the left side was left with the right side shaved. What's more, the eyebrows were shaved in half and left in half. It has changed from a physical punishment to a punishment for personal dignity, and its effect is self-evident. Some people even committed suicide or attempted suicide. The second type: the head shape of the money rat-tailed man is not achieved overnight, but has an evolutionary process. In the early Qing Dynasty, this braid was called "suncus murinus Tail", and its hairstyle was characterized by removing all around the top of the head, leaving only the part about the size of copper coins on the top of the head. Braids are thin and long, just like mouse tails. The word "suncus murinus tail" in Qing Dynasty is a kind of beautification, elegance and elegant politics of the new dynasty. The third kind: pigtail The pigtail evolved from suncus murinus's tail, probably during the Qianlong period! Hair can be changed from copper area to palm area. Relatively speaking, although it is not much thicker than before, it is still not very beautiful. At that time, foreigners could already go to China. When they saw this hairstyle, they specially chose an image and friendly name, called "Pig Tail". This was also the first impression foreigners had on Manchu men at that time, and it took a long time to change slowly. The fourth type: the ultimate version of snake braid was in the late Qing Dynasty, and the hairstyle was improved again, from the original palm size to the first half completely shaved, and the second half directly braided. Now the images of Manchu men in film and television dramas are all versions of this period. This braid style has also been greatly recognized by the people, and more importantly, it feels glorious and proud to keep this hairstyle. Later, with the demise of the Qing Dynasty, the braid hairstyle gradually withdrew from the historical stage. Although the haircut order was abolished after the fall of the Qing Dynasty, some royalists fought back and insisted on braiding their hair to show their loyalty to the Qing Dynasty. Recently, I saw many people wearing Hanfu on the Internet. I suggested "restoring Hanfu" and encouraged * * * to wear traditional Hanfu again. what do you think?
