No matter how far it comes in progress, often we still turn to ancient signs. Let's look at signs about washing the head.
Even our ancestors were very attentive to their hair. People believed that it was through them that an invisible connection with the Higher Forces was carried out. It was believed that by taking possession of the hairs of another person, one can completely subordinate him to his will. Failing to yourself or vice versa - destroy.
We have collected for you a list of the most popular beliefs related to washing your head. Perhaps to someone they will help to make their hair more healthy and magnificent. After all, as you know, in every fairy tale there is a share of truth.
Washing your head on the day of the week: when is it better?
How much is the truth in this, and how many superstitions today everyone determines for himself. But folk memory has preserved and conveyed to this day a lot of various signs and beliefs associated with hair, we unconsciously try to observe some of them now.
- Monday. It is strictly forbidden to wash your hair, since any business (and not just this procedure) will not bring anything good, it will attract a variety of failures for the whole week. By the way, many of our contemporaries confirm this postulate on their personal experience and really try not to wash their hair on the first working day. Perhaps this is due to the fact that Monday is generally considered a difficult for a person in the afternoon, when after the weekend you have to get into a working rhythm.
- Tuesday. A good “working” day, on which both at work is already easier than on Monday, and was not forbidden to wash. Moreover, since ancient times, there is an opinion that it is on this day that it is good to start various things - why should the care of the hair be an exception?
- Wednesday. The best day for bath procedures, as well as in general for human life. According to psychologists, this is a peak of performance when we are all on the shoulder. On Wednesdays, it is very good to “overload”, gain energy and strength to end the working week, which is best done with “clear” (in other words - clean) head.
- Thursday. On this day, it is very useful to get rid of dirt - both spiritual and bodily. Remember only about the pure Thursday during the Easter week! There is only one “but”: it should be washed very early, to the sunny sunrise, then you will not only take water procedures, but you can also improve your health.
- Friday. It is believed that from the head, washed on Friday, and hair will sprinkle. A day unfavorable for caring for himself, since it is considered heavy, sad - after all, it was on Friday that the Savior accepted the martyrdom on the cross. Anyway, the end of the working week, as a rule, is accompanied by a breakdown of forces, the remnants of which should not be spent on washing hair.
- Saturday. A great day for washing: along with the mud, the hardships of the working week, problems and difficulties that stretched for you to the weekend and interfered with a full rest. It is also nice to go in the house to surround yourself with purity and freshness.
- Sunday. A special day intended for relaxation, family circle, communication and spiritual development. On Sundays, not only to work, but also to swim is a sin.
Our superstitious contemporaries not only continue to follow the advice of their ancestors about hair care, but also add their observations to them.
So, it is believed that you should not wash your hair before any important events-in life or in business, so as not to frighten off luck. And schoolchildren and students fundamentally do not bathe before exams and tests, so as not to “wash away” knowledge.
