Vintage Hygiene Practices That Are the Very Opposite of Clean
Get Your Hair Cut and Tooth Pulled at the Same Time
Would you let a barber or hairstylist pull your teeth? That seems like a weird question, right? Well, it was common hundreds of years ago to have these services done at the same place. Barbers were seen as jacks of all trades and performed minor surgeries. They would cut hair, pull decaying teeth, and even apply leeches to treat ailments. It's so strange these services were done in the same place.
But then again, most of the practices of those times don't make sense to the modern person. So how much weirder can it get?
