Join us on our shopping day in Taiwan! We had lunch with my cousin and her husband, then went to Taipei 101 to shop. Suri got her first traditional haircut. We hope you enjoy our video!
Sure, here is a more relatable and easy-to-read version of the text, while still maintaining a professional tone:
Fetal hair brushes have a long and fascinating history. The first known fetal hair brush was made in the Southern Dynasty by a palace maid to reward the imperial court for outstanding loyalty. The use of fetal hair brushes became even more popular during the Tang Dynasty, when some candidates brought their own hairbrushes to the capital to take the imperial exam. Some of these candidates even won the top spot, which is why fetal hair brushes were also known as "champion pens."
In addition to their practical use, fetal hair brushes were also seen as a symbol of love and care. Some ancient Chinese books record that fetal hair brushes could ward off evil spirits, relieve diseases, and prolong life. As such, they were considered to be a good luck charm for babies.
I am grateful to Dr. Liang for sharing this information with me. It is fascinating to learn about the history and cultural significance of this unique object.
I would like to thank Dr. Cynthia Liang, Director of the Confucius Institute at Ateneo de Manila University, for providing me with a historical source on fetal hair brushes.
