Part 5 of our special series, A Journey Through Hair, is here.
"You May Take My Head, but Never My Hair" - On the Queue and the Haircut Edict...
Look back through history and you find times when people had no choice but to wear a hairstyle they did not want.
Korean women mostly wore their hair up or in a bun and a braid, and men wore a topknot. But from the Goryeo era through the end of the Joseon dynasty, there were moments when people had to cut their hair whether they wanted to or not.
A Journey Through Hair continues in May.
