When did men start wearing short haircuts?

Hair care is as old as civilization itself. Even in ancient times, women had combs. Even the most primitive tribes managed to make combs from wood, bone, and metal. What about hair fashion? It is very funny to watch how this fashion has changed and what significance it has had for a person over the centuries.

Wild tribes in all parts of the world developed their own style of hairstyle, which was of great importance to them. In China, they traditionally wore their hair tied in a bun at the top of their head. And when the Manchus conquered this country, the local population was forced to wear pigtails as a sign of slavery. This style took root, became popular in China, and is still adhered to.

Civilization developed, hairstyles became more and more diverse. It was hard to meet two people with the same hairdo. In some countries, hair was worn loosely falling down, in others it became a habit to comb it high on the head. Only relatively recently has it become customary to wear hair long for women and short for men.

Until the Middle Ages, men had long hair and looked after it in the same way, with the same care as women. They curled them, decorated them with ribbons. During the Renaissance, wigs were used to make hair appear longer.

King Henry VIII of England decided to make history something of his own, memorable. He ordered people to wear short hair. But at the same time, he allowed to have long beards and curled mustaches. When James I ascended the throne, people returned to their ancient habit of wearing long hair. In France, Louis XIV had 40 craftsmen who made wigs especially for him. In general, all French men competed in the length of hair and the number of curls.

Later, people were divided into two camps: some were in favor of short beards and long beards, others were in favor of long beards and short hair. Fashion changed back and forth until the 60th century, when short hair remained in vogue, although long hair was popular for a while in the 70s and XNUMXs.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Magnetic bracelets don't work 05.09.2006

According to the British Medical Journal, magnetic bracelets are ineffective - at least not for relieving arthritis.

If a small positive effect exists, it is only because of suggestion and self-hypnosis. The authors of the study indicate that if magnetic fields affected a person, then some changes would be noted in patients exposed to strong magnetic fields when examined on a nuclear magnetic tomograph.

Meanwhile, "treatment" with a magnetic bracelet distracts the patient from effective methods and makes him waste time.
