The shift from religious divisions to ones based on ethnicity and skin color gradually developed in early modern Europe. Hence, before natives became “red,” and Europeans “white” a period existed where the differences between these cultures were utilized in a variety of means to prove similarity and difference. One element signifying difference during the early contact period was that of the beard. Hair as an identifier has a long history: through the middle ages, wildness was conveyed by hair and at times non-Christians were legally required to grow beards. Early in the sixteenth century the beard became a popular fad for white, Christian-European men, a change which some scholars have traced to European contact with beardless Amerindians. Within Europe, the beard came to represent more than otherness. A thick beard conveyed images of health, particularly sexual health; the beard came to represent virility and the beard helped to separate men from women and boys. iii In this paper I argue that the beard assumed a special significance within early English contacts in the Carolinas and Virginia. I examine the changing meanings of the beard and the English adoption of these meanings. I first examine the European background which helped provide the context for their first permanent colonial settlements in the New World. I next delve into travel accounts, ethnographies and artistic portrayals of the Natives in these colonies to examine how and when both sides evoked facial hair as a signifier of difference. This examination will help reveal English views of Natives during a time when their views regarding the Natives‟ character could affect the success of English colonial ventures. Finally, I examine why the beard failed as a sign of difference between the region‟s Amerindians and the English. This failure led to the adoption of other means of distinction specifically that of skin color. Hence the beard served as a first stepping stone towards what would become a fully conceptualized racial theory. iv Chapter One Introduction One “fatal Friday morning” in 1622 English and Native relations in Virginia took a drastic turn. According to Edward Waterhouse, it was on this morning in March that groups of Amerindians “basely and barbarously murdered” every settler they encountered regardless of “age or sexe, man, woman or childe.” Waterhouse‟s account described this event as a major turn in intra-colonial relations. The English settlers‟ ability to convert the “perfidious and inhumane” barbarian Natives was cemented through this attack and the three hundred forty-seven lives lost on this morning. Those who had too much faith in the humanity of the Indians, such as George Thorpe, were not spared from cruel deaths. Hence according to Waterhouse‟s account, what would for over three hundred centuries be recounted as the Massacre of 1622 marked a deep change in Indian-English relations.1 1 Edward Waterhouse and Virginia Company of London, A Declaration of the State of the Colony and Affaires in Virginia With a Relation of the Barbarous Massacre in the Time of Peace and League, Treacherously Executed by the Natiue Infidels Vpon the English, the 22 of March Last.

Also a Commemoration of Such Worthy Benefactors as Haue Contributed Their 1 Historians have long since agreed with Waterhouse‟s assessment of the changing nature of English-Indian relations in Virginia post-1622. Although earlier English-Native relations were not without problems or strains, the “massacre” alleviated any doubts English settlers had over the character of Natives. According to Bernard Sheehan, the massacre allowed the English to proceed with the systematic conquest and dispersal of the Powhatan people.2 Gone were both the noble qualities previously assessed to Natives as well as any recognition of Indians‟ rights to land and freedom.3 Along with the approximately three hundred fifty English settlers killed, so too were the English‟ hopes for an integrated society. The English settlers quickly dismissed the Indians‟ culture and categorizations of Natives as “brutish” and “beastly” greatly increased after 1622.4 Yet the inhumane descriptions that increased after this turning point were not only due to the negative qualities ascribed to Natives but also because of the positive qualities that were taken away. The previous ambivalence in English attitudes towards the Natives can be seen throughout their early contact literature and art.

One such road marker was that of the beard. The beard, I argue, served as a proto-racialist symbol in early Virginia. Its use in the descriptions of the Natives coincided with ambivalent English attitudes towards the original inhabitants of their new settlements. The Massacre of 1622 not only changed the Virginian settlers‟ attitudes into ones of condemnation but also lead to the replacement of the beard in favor of other signs. The beard‟s ability to minimize the risk Natives presented to English settlement and its demonstrability of physical similarity between Amerindians and Englishmen were discarded along with English hopes that Natives could be converted to Christianity and hence become civilized in English eyes. As a result, Virginia represented a microcosm of what would become a larger colonial issue of how to understand and handle Amerindians. The situation in Virginia progressed at a faster pace than other parts of the English colonies and as such is useful to study in isolation. Additionally, Virginia represents a unique situation regarding the establishment of race relations to come; primarily with the utilization of African labor and the establishment of differences based solely on skin color. The utilization of the beard was a first step I argue for English settlers on the path to separating races by skin color; yet was not as fully conceptualized as racial theories which would later emerge. The historiography on race in the early modern period has undergone a drastic transformation in recent years. Joyce Chaplin nicely summed up the general position that racial ideas were dependent on the invention of “modern” science, which was not formulated until the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. However, 3 Chaplin concluded that cultural differences did matter to the early English colonists whereas “biological” ones did not.5 The cultural patterns which established men‟s facial hair preferences was one such difference which I believe was embedded with multiple messages. Beards and facial hair in general, experienced a radical shift in meaning within early modern Europe.

  • Wigmaker and Barber by Sharon Fabian
    Name Date Wigmaker and Barber By Sharon Fabian Cosmetology is a popular vocational subject in high school. In cosmetology class, students learn to wash and cut hair. They learn to give perms and to color hair too. They learn how to do a fancy hairstyle for a special occasion like a prom. They might learn to cut and style wigs as well as real hair. Cosmetology students often go on to work as hairdressers, styling hair for customers. In colonial times, there were also people who worked as hairdressers. Some people are surprised to learn that, because we often think of the colonists as hard working people who didn't have time for frivolous things like a fancy hairdo. However, there were many people in colonial America who were very fashion conscious and who kept up with the latest styles in both clothing and hairstyles. This was especially true in the larger cities like Williamsburg, Virginia. A city like Williamsburg had shops that catered to the fashion conscious. Wigmakers and barbers there both provided hairdressing services. A barber might provide shaves and haircuts in addition to his other duties, such as performing surgery and pulling teeth! A wigmaker, of course, made wigs, and in the 1700s, wigs were the latest fashion! The fashion of wearing wigs began with the royalty in France; it spread to England and then to America. In colonial times, the gentlemen, not the ladies, wore wigs. Colonial gentlemen also wore queues. A queue was like a ponytail wig that was tied on at the back of the head.

    Review Article Review of Topical Therapies for Beard Enhancement A. ALMURAYSHID* Department of Medicine, College of Medicine, Prince Sattam Bin Abdulaziz University, Alkharj City 11942, Saudi Arabia Almurayshid: Topical therapies for Beard enhancement Beards and facial hair are part of male characters and fascination. Topical therapy for beard enhancement may be desired by some men to improve beard growth and density. A review of all reports on topical treatments for beard enhancement is presented here. Searching the United States National Library of Medicine PubMed, exploring all titles containing beard, facial hair or mustache as of July 22, 2020. A total of 445 articles resulted from the initial search. After reviewing the publications three studies match the aim of the review, two of which were double-blind clinical trials, and one was a case report. Topical 3 % minoxidil, as studied by Ingprasert et al., showed a significant increase in hair count, photographic scoring and patient self-assessment. Saeedi et al. studied the use of 2.5 % testosterone gel for men with thalassemia major and found an increase in terminal hair. Vestita et al. published a case report demonstrating unexpected improvement of beard density for a patient using tretinoin 0.05 % cream. Limited evidence on topical treatments for beard enhancement. Topical minoxidil is an off-label treatment to enhance the beard. Other topical options such as testosterone, tretinoin, of bimatoprost could constitute potential treatment options. Further studies needed to recommend the best topical options for men who desire to enhance their beards. Key words: Beard, facial hair, Minoxidil, Testosterone, Tretinoin, Camouflage, Hair Transplant, Laser The beard and facial hair have been a social expression The results were filtered to find any topical treatment used for men of different cultures.

  • An End to “Long-Haired Freaky People Need Not Apply”?
    “Signs” of the Times: An End to “Long-Haired Freaky People Need Not Apply”? Sean C. Pierce Harbuck Keith & Holmes LLC Coming on the heels of United Parcel Service, Inc.’s seminal case on pregnancy discrimination, Young v. United Parcel Service, Inc., 135 S. Ct. 1338 (2015), the world’s largest package delivery company was recently also ensnared in a religious discrimination claim. UPS agreed to pay $4.9 million and provide other relief to settle a class-action religious discrimination lawsuit filed by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). The suit was resolved with a five-year consent decree entered in Eastern District of New York on December 21, 2018. EEOC v. United Parcel Service, Inc., Civil Action No. 1:15-cv-04141. The EEOC alleged UPS prohibited male employees in supervisory or customer-contact positions, including delivery drivers, from wearing beards or growing their hair below collar length. The EEOC also alleged that UPS failed to hire or promote individuals whose religious practices conflict with its appearance policy and failed to provide religious accommodations to its appearance policy at facilities throughout the U.S. The EEOC further alleged that UPS segregated employees who maintained beards or long hair in accordance with their religious beliefs into non-supervisory, back-of-the- facility positions without customer contact. These claims fell within the EEOC’s animosity to employer inflexibility as to religious “dress and grooming” practices, examples of which include wearing religious clothing or articles (e.g., a Muslim hijab (headscarf), a Sikh turban, or a Christian cross); observing a religious prohibition against wearing certain garments (e.g., a Muslim, Pentecostal Christian, or Orthodox Jewish woman’s practice of not wearing pants or short skirts), or adhering to shaving or hair length observances (e.g., Sikh uncut hair and beard, Rastafarian dreadlocks, or Jewish peyes (sidelocks)).

  • Symbolisms of Hair and Dreadlocks in the Boboshanti Order of Rastafari
    …The Hairs of Your Head Are All Numbered: Symbolisms of Hair and Dreadlocks in the Boboshanti Order of Rastafari De-Valera N.Y.M. Botchway (PhD) [email protected] Department of History University of Cape Coast Ghana Abstract This article’s readings of Rastafari philosophy and culture through the optic of the Boboshanti (a Rastafari group) in relation to their hair – dreadlocks – tease out the symbolic representations of dreadlocks as connecting social communication, identity, subliminal protest and general resistance to oppression and racial discrimination, particularly among the Black race. By exploring hair symbolisms in connection with dreadlocks and how they shape an Afrocentric philosophical thought and movement for the Boboshanti, the article argues that hair can be historicised and theorised to elucidate the link between the physical and social bodies within the contexts of ideology and identity.

  • WHO Surgical Site Infection Prevention Guidelines Web Appendix 7 Summary of a Systematic Review on the Effectiveness and Optimal Method of Hair Removal
    WHO Surgical Site infection Prevention Guidelines Web Appendix 7 Summary of a systematic review on the effectiveness and optimal method of hair removal 1. Introduction Removal of hair from the intended site of surgical incision has traditionally been part of the routine preoperative preparation of patients undergoing surgery. Hair removal may be necessary to facilitate adequate exposure to the site and preoperative skin marking. Furthermore, suturing and the application of wound dressings can be complicated by the presence of hair. Apart from these practical issues, hair has been associated with a lack of cleanliness and the potential to cause surgical site infection (SSI). However, there is also the belief that hair removal inversely increases the risk of SSI by causing microscopic trauma of the skin. To minimize the potential of skin trauma, the use of clippers instead of razors has been proposed for preoperative hair removal. Clippers cut the hair close to the skin without actually touching it, whereas razors involve a sharp blade drawn directly over the skin. A third method for hair removal is the application of depilatory creams containing chemicals. The drawbacks are the necessity to leave the cream in place for approximately 15-20 minutes for the hair to be dissolved and the potential for allergic reactions. A Cochrane review, published in 2009 and updated in 2011, concluded that there was no statistically significant effect on SSI rates of hair removal 1. However, a significant harm was seen when hair removal with razors was compared with clipping. 2. PICO questions 1. Does hair removal affect the incidence of SSI? 2.
