What hairstyle did you have before entering the Qing Dynasty and at the beginning of the Qing Dynasty? The portraits of the emperors of the Qing Dynasty all have hair, unlike suncus murinus's pigtails. In those days, the hairstyle of Manchu people was not to shave off half of their hair and comb the rest into big braid, but to shave off almost all their hair, leaving only a small piece and combing a very thin braid. At that time, Manchu people called this hairstyle "suncus murinus tail", that is, a small piece of hair left behind was only as big as copper coins, and the braided hair was only as thin as a mouse tail. In order to test whether the hairstyle is standard, Manchu people put a copper coin on their braids, asking them to pass through the copper coin, which can cover their heads to show all the hair in the world. The word "suncus murinus tail" was first mentioned in the tonsure order posted by Manchu people outside the city before the Guangzhou Massacre. The evolution of Yin-Yang head was slow in the late Qing Dynasty and Cixi at that time, but it was still suncus murinus's tail hairstyle from the early Qing Dynasty to the Qianlong period.
