I was just thinking, in the past, people never cut their hair. It grew to a certain length, fell out, and started growing again. We, on the other hand, cut our hair a few times a year. When you get split ends, it is because the fibers in your hair start unraveling, like a braid. We cut our hair in order to prevent split ends. But could it be that hair that is cut unravels easier than hair that grew out from the root? Just a theory. Keep in mind, in the past, hair was probably healthier than ours, since they didn't use products or heating appliances, and it was pretty much always greasy.Oh, and for the record, I do cut my hair. So... I don't need to be reminded.I was thinking along the lines of stoneage... but yes, people have probably been cutting their hair to all times. But never trimming your hair was probably more acceptable back then, than it is now?

Sorry but your history is way off. People have been cutting their hair for centuries.In Egypt, many centuries before Christ, barbers were prosperous and highly respected. The ancient monuments and papyrus show that the Egyptians shaved their beards and their heads. The Egyptian priests even went so far as to shave the entire body every third day. At this time the barbers carried their tools in open-mouthed baskets and their razors were shaped like small hatchets and had curved handles. No people were better patrons of the barbers than the Romans. They often devoted several hours each day to tonsorial operations, which included shaving, hair cutting, hairdressing, massaging, manicuring and the application of rare ointments and cosmetics of unknown formulas. The great ladies of Rome always had a hairdresser among their slaves and the rich nobles had private tonsors, as they were then called. Barbers were so highly prized that a statue was erected to the memory of the first barber of Rome
