Barbers provide free haircut service for medical workers in Wuhan

Doctor Liu Zhiping receives haircut service at the residence of medical team for Hankou Hospital in Wuhan, central China's Hubei Province, Feb. 24, 2020. Five barbers provided free haircut service for members of medical team fighting against the novel coronavirus outbreak in Hankou Hospital as Monday marks Longtaitou Day. The day of Longtaitou, which literally means "dragon raises head", falls on the second day of the second lunar month. It is a traditionally busy day for hair salons as many Chinese believe that a new hairdo on that day will bring good luck, or one prior to that day will usher in bad luck. A voluntary team comprised of nearly 100 barbers have been providing free haircut service for medical workers in Wuhan. Nearly 4,000 medical workers have received haircut service in the past week.
