Dyeing hair is not a patent for modern people. Do you know anything about ancient hair dyeing?

The earliest recorded person who dyed his hair was Wang Mang, who lived more than 2,000 years ago. When Wang Mang was 68 years old, the situation was unstable and the political situation was chaotic. In the face of the enemy's wanton March, he must first stabilize his army. How can I hide my old age and make myself look energetic? So, on the wedding day in March, in order to stabilize the situation and cover up his aging image and precarious situation, Wang Mang dyed his gray hair and beard black together. Of course, it is not surprising that dyeing hair failed to save the deteriorating situation.

Some people are distressed by more and more white hair, and some people are mature, dyeing their hair and playing with vicissitudes. There is a record in Beijiang Poetry Talk:? At the beginning of Wu, Xu was a weak official, thinking that he was too young to suppress everyone, so he took medicine to change his beard and became frost in one day. Let go and Lai Gong is anxious to take photos, so is his method. Recently, when I met a public official, I insisted on keeping a bright sideburns, but those who tried their best to find medicine to get rid of it met another public official.

From this record, we can know that Xu Zhimo and Song Koulai Gong make themselves look mature and steady by dyeing their hair. The purpose is similar to those who dye their hair and become young, all for political power and political status. Because of their young age, the two of them will inevitably be looked down upon and considered incapable of taking power. Make yourself look stable and mature through white hair, thus winning the trust of the emperor. ?

Hair dyeing is not modern? Patents?

In fact, in ancient times, people attached great importance to their beards and hair, and recorded various methods and products of dyeing, fixing and nourishing hair in medical classics, which were also very popular at that time. There were no chemical products for people to choose from at that time. People use more natural formulas, such as Gleditsia sinensis, hibiscus leaves, Alternanthera philoxeroides, gallnut and black beans. These natural products are the best gifts from nature. They can effectively remove oil, dander and dust from hair. We all think that fixing hair and dyeing hair are modern fashions, but in fact, they have always existed in the history of China. The cleverness of human beings is that they will create and invent according to their own needs, so we must not lament the cleverness of the ancients. ?

The pure natural dye paste used by the ancients may not have the ideal effect in modern times, but compared with the chemical toiletries we use now, it is non-toxic and harmless, so many businesses are mainly pure natural and pollution-free.
