On the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, you can see many popular barbershops everywhere on the street. Not only on weekends, but even at noon and in the evening on weekdays, there will be long queues. Some barbershops said that the current customer flow is more than double than usual. Sometimes when there is a peak flow of customers, customers even have to wait in line for more than an hour.

Is it okay to cut hair on New Year's Eve?

You can cut your hair on the Little New Year, but you can’t cut your hair after the Little New Year. Why is that?
Generally speaking, you shouldn’t cut your hair after the Chinese New Year, because the first month of the year is the first month of the year. Cutting your hair means that the new year will have no beginning, which is not a good sign! There is another story that I heard on the radio program "The Soldier": It's a story about a barber who had an uncle who asked him to go home during the Chinese New Year. He didn't have any money, so he didn't go back for the New Year. He made money by cutting hair, and after he made money, he didn't go back for the New Year. Later, his uncle died and he was extremely sad. Later, every New Year's Day he would cut his hair to express his longing for his uncle, which was called "Thinking of Uncle", and people praised him! After all, someone died, and later people passed the name around and it became "Dead Uncle" (it may also be due to different local accents, so people heard it wrong. This is very likely).
