It is believed by some to be bad luck to wash your hair or clothing on New Year's Day.

It is believed you will adversely impact your health if you cut your fingernails or hair during the waning moon.

Combing your hair out of doors is believed to bring storms.

Haircuts have a wonderful rhyme: Best never enjoyed if Sunday shron, and likewise on a Monday, Cut Thursday and you'll never get rich, Likewise on a Saturday. But live long if shorn on a Tuesday and best of all is Friday.

An old rhyme about bathing says: He who bathes in May will soon be laid in clay, He who bathes in June will sing a marry tune, but he who bathes in July will dance like a fly.
