The structure of hair began to be studied at a professional level quite recently, but even our ancestors were well aware that they are very strongly connected with many things that happen in life, and sometimes even with the fate of a person! It was believed that holding a hair in your hands could tell you a lot about its owner, what kind of character he has, how he goes through life, and even what happened in the past and awaits him in the future!
Today it has already been proven that human hair is somehow connected with space and the location of celestial sanctuaries - such as the Moon. It is believed that at one time or another, when the Moon moves through the zodiac signs, a person’s hair retains vital energy and protects against negativity.
Depending on the lunar location, such phenomena occur to a greater or lesser extent. So, if you cut your hair at the wrong time, at a time when good protection is needed, the energy will weaken and you may notice that the person will begin to get sick, get upset, and even have problems with career growth and finances! The life of modern people is too complicated to destroy their positive aura with their own hands, and therefore many try to do all cosmetic procedures with their hair, including haircuts, on the correct dates for that time, so to speak, during the most favorable periods.
Is it possible to cut hair on Sunday?
The clergy explain: Sundays are given to a person so that he can attend a temple or church, read the Bible, and pray.
Weekends need to be freed from the daily routine in order to get to know yourself, go to a church service, relax and be among believers.
You can get your hair cut, shave, and do other things on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Traveler or Thursday, and not on Saturday or Sunday. It is also forbidden to work in the evening on Orthodox holidays.
There are situations in which cutting a haircut is not a sin, for example, preparing for surgery or removing a tick, when you have to cut hair from a certain place.
On the other hand, the opinions of modern priests differ from the reasoning of the old clergy. They believe that after going to church a person can perform worldly affairs, especially if he takes them on with prayer.
In addition, godly activities should in no case cause harm or be an excuse for laziness. For example, not washing your clothes and going to an Orthodox church in dirty clothes, or not cleaning your cat’s litter box and leaving it until the next day - all this will not characterize you favorably.
Is it possible to cut and dye your hair during the first week after Easter?
Since ancient times, people have believed that it is in the hair that a person’s vital energy and strength are concentrated. They are a symbol of prosperity, abundance and happiness. There are many prohibitions and signs that are associated with hair, and many of them depend on church holidays.
In 2021, Easter came on May 2, but Bright Week, the week after this holiday, will continue until May 9.
The clergy note that believers should not get their hair cut on Easter itself, because it should be spent with thoughts about the miracle of the resurrection of Christ and think about spiritual development, and not about external beauty.
There is no ban on cutting your hair during Easter week, and if there is a need to get your hair in order, then this can be done, but it is important not to forget that you need to attend services and devote time to prayer.
Throughout Bright Week, festive services are held in churches, which people try to attend. It is worth spending as much time as possible with family and friends.
Is it possible to get a haircut on an Orthodox holiday?
To cut your hair on Orthodox holidays means to disrespect God and mock the greatness of a church holiday.
Because the church charter states: every Orthodox believer must go to church on a holiday, communicate with the priest and believers, pray and spend the day doing good deeds.
The prohibition of various activities, including cutting hair or carrying out repairs, on Orthodox holidays is more of a superstitious fear than a real threat. Superstitions take precedence over a person’s will and mind only when a person himself begins to believe in them.
On the other hand, visiting a beauty salon instead of going to church is considered a sin. When a visit to the hairdresser on an Orthodox holiday interferes with going to church, interferes with confession and communion, then it is better to get a haircut on another day.

There is an interesting legend:
1:77
Once upon a time, a man had a halo around his head. This is what is seen on the icons around the heads of the saints. But there was no hair. The head was covered with something similar to fluff. Like the one on a newborn baby's head. When a person fell into sin, the rays of cosmic energy around his head became heavy and turned into hair.

Is it possible to bury on Trinity and visit the cemetery?
Bury - yes. If the Lord called his servant, then he can be sent on his final journey.
But simply visiting a cemetery (to commemorate long-dead relatives) is undesirable: this is done the day before, on Trinity Parental Saturday.
Moreover, if someone did not have time to visit the cemetery before Trinity, then this was considered a bad omen: they say, in this case, the deceased relative will come to the house for the holiday itself - and then take someone from his relatives with him (that is, someone will soon die in the family).
The elder women in the family tried to cover the graves themselves before Trinity with brooms made of branches (most often birch) in order to scare away evil spirits not only from the graves, but also from all living family members too.
What sorrows await after a Sunday haircut?
There is a sign that says: you cannot cut your hair on the last day of the week. On Sunday, any changes in appearance are unacceptable. If you absolutely need to do your hair at this time, it is better to get your hair cut on Saturday afternoon.
A haircut on Sunday can have more than unpleasant consequences:
- A gap will be created in the human energy field.
- The connection with the guardian angel will be destroyed.
- Good luck will go away along with the cut strands.
There is an opinion that people who are “chronically” haunted by failures can try to change their fate with a haircut on a Sunday. But this is not suitable for everyone, and success is not guaranteed.
A Sunday haircut will certainly suit people born on Tuesday or Wednesday. But for those born on Monday or Saturday, the last day of the week is definitely not suitable for “working on karma” with a haircut.

Trinity: what not to do
During the entire week before Trinity (it is called green), it is not customary to leave the house without a cross, so as not to get into trouble arranged by evil spirits (it is believed that at this time it is at its peak of activity). It is especially important to put a cross on a child.
On Trinity it is prohibited:
- go to the cemetery: relatives and friends are remembered the day before, just on Trinity Saturday;
- work around the house and on the land: sewing, cooking, cleaning, planting, etc. It is believed that whoever does not rest on holiday will be in trouble;
- quarrel, get angry and envy;
- to go into the forest or field alone: because of evil spirits;
- swim - they say, the mermaids will drag you away.
As for work, an exception is made for cooking and caring for pets (the latter is simply necessary).
And now once again about the ban on swimming.
