Through the records of the missionaries, it is not difficult for us to see the appearance of the people of the Qing Dynasty at the end of the Qing Dynasty. In fact, this kind of picture to the eighties, some northern regions.
Still. The people rarely washed their hair, but mostly used grates to comb their hair. It is common not to wash your hair for a month, and it is estimated that there are many people who do not wash their hair for a year. Except for the bad smell, it does not seem to affect human health.
