People in ancient times
There is a big difference between Chinese ancient times and Chinese for now. In ancient times men didn’t cut their hair or mucstache. People thought that parents gave you life and all things of yours are from parents. So you should keep them. Maybe you couldn’t cut your hair at eight. If you didn’t do that, you would be regarded as unfilial people. People didn’t do that until the last feudal dynasty ended. Now we can cut our hair and mustache whenever we want.
