How much did the ancients pay attention to beards? Did the ancients pay attention to growing beards?

I don't know: did ancient men have beards? Let me give you a detailed introduction below, and then read on ~

In many TV dramas, many male characters don't have beards, only some worldly experts or old immortals have long fake beards, while important characters such as the protagonist basically can't see beards. But in fact, in ancient times, men's beards were very important. Except for some men who couldn't grow beards, such as eunuchs, few other men didn't have beards, so TV dramas were deceptive. Then why did the ancients attach so much importance to their beards?

China is a civilized country with a history and culture of 5, years. Since the rise of hundred schools of thought, all the people, from monarch to people, have made rules, no matter from clothing or conduct, they all have relevant regulations, especially regarding hair and skin. At that time, people hardly hurt themselves. After all, their bodies have hair and skin. If you were in that position, you would try to cut off a pinch of hair with a knife. Unlike now, once some people are wronged, they will hurt themselves. If they were seen doing this in ancient times, no one would persuade you to coax you, and they would directly come up and give you a kick.

but you know what? There is something even more interesting in ancient times, that is, the beard of men. In ancient times, it was a common phenomenon in society that men were superior to women, so men's appearance was more valued. Parents who were equally affected by their bodies were very particular about whether their beards would stay or not. Unlike us now, they just shaved off their beards when they were upset, and they looked younger. So what was the point of keeping beards in ancient times?

what are the rules and regulations for growing a beard in ancient times? Being laughed at for not having a beard on your face?

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when ten officials were in chaos, Yuan Shao sent troops into the palace to kill all those who didn't need it, because eunuchs didn't need it, and those who didn't need it were eunuchs. However, there were quite some manslaughter-many men were killed as eunuchs in a hurry. Did you see that? At that time, it turned out that the beard could still save your life, and small fresh meat was still beheaded. This shows that growing a beard was very popular at that time. Since it was popular, there must be a reason.

growing a beard is a characteristic of men. From the farthest point of view, a lot of beards make others see you as a very tough person with a kind of male beauty, while growing a beard with a small handle and retouching it can support a different temperament. In the early days of ancient times, men grew beards not to look good, but because of the idea that "the body is influenced by their parents". Therefore, as a part of the body, it cannot be easily removed. In addition, the tools of life at that time were not perfect, let alone razors. There were no soap and washing powder, only some simple ingredients.

However, with the rise of beard, the culture of beard began to show. During the Three Kingdoms period, a general of Shu was favored by people for his beard and righteousness, that is, Guan Erye, who had a long black beard and was praised by the world as a "bearded man", and many people followed suit in later generations. Speaking of this beard culture, it is also interesting. On people's faces, the beard of the upper lip is called "mustache", the beard of the lower lip is called "mustache", the beard beside the cheek is called "mustache", and the beard of the chin is called "mustache". Regardless of ancient and modern times, when a boy reaches a certain age, he will grow a beard. However, in ancient times, once a beard grows, it is necessary to grow a beard. Those who don't have a beard are either "Tian Yan" and have physical problems, or they are simply eunuchs and can't "walk the road".

people laugh at jokes, so I wish I had a longer beard and proved that I am normal. However, we can't figure out why some directors let Xiaorou get such a high commission to make a bad movie for the sake of traffic.

compared with modern people, why did ancient people like to grow beards so much? Is it really just to highlight the identity of men? Some people will think, is it because it is inconvenient for ancient people to trim their beards, so they will leave it? It sounds reasonable. The razors we use now were definitely not available in ancient times. So what will they do with these beards? Why not pull them off one by one by hand? It seems that this explanation is quite reasonable, because I am afraid of pain, so I will stay.

Of course not. Although there were no razors, ancient people had other tools to handle beards. Smart ancient people naturally didn't pluck beards with their bare hands. They also used special tools such as scissors to repair their beards. The main reason why the ancients grew beards was because they believed that beards were given by their parents. The ancients attached great importance to body hair. We can see how important hair is to people, and even the existence of life can be paid for it. Beards were also representatives of adults in ancient times, and only adults were qualified to grow beards.

In ancient times, men's masculinity was the most beautiful thing, just as beards were sought after by people. On the contrary, if an adult man doesn't have a beard, he will be regarded as a disabled person who is a eunuch's father-in-law, and he will not be respected by other people in society. We often mention that a person is unstable, unreliable and hairless, which reflects this traditional custom.

However, with the development of the times, in the late Qing Dynasty, people who went abroad to study found it inconvenient to grow beards, and it coincided with the change of the dynasty. In order to eliminate the imprint of the Qing Dynasty, various places started to cut braids and beards. Therefore, people discovered the benefits of not having a beard, which gradually developed into the saying that people who have beards don't pay attention to their appearance, and people began to pay attention to taking care of their beards.

At present, whether there is a beard or not doesn't mean anything special. People who like beards can keep them, and they will look charming as long as they take good care of them. And those who don't like beards can shave them clean, which will also give people a refreshing and comfortable feeling.

When growing beard or not becomes people's real freedom, they can freely develop what they like without being bound by social vision. From the development of beard, we must be able to see the development and progress of human social freedom.
