As the saying goes, 'A long eyebrow is better than ten thousand dan grains'. After the age of 50, the eyebrows become longer. What does it mean?

Although eyebrows are not the key factor affecting appearance, a pair of good-looking eyebrows can add points. What a person's eyebrows look like is basically fixed by adulthood. Except for female friends who can trim and draw their eyebrows by themselves, male friends are not very good at moving their eyebrows. There is a saying about eyebrows, I don’t know if you have heard of it, “A long eyebrow is better than ten thousand dan grains”. If a person’s eyebrows become longer after the age of 50, what does it mean?

What does "One eyebrow is better than ten thousand dan grains" mean?

It means that if a few particularly long eyebrows grow out of the eyebrows, it is very rare, and it is a person's blessing, which means that he can live a long life, and he will not worry about food and clothing throughout his life, which is worth 10,000 dans of grain. From some film and television dramas and calligraphy and paintings, we can also see that there are many images of birthday stars and God of Wealth with long brows and chests, and they smile very generously and very kindly.

The ancients believed that long eyebrows were a symbol of longevity. They would not easily pluck out their own eyebrows, let alone trim them regularly like today's women, and there is even a saying that "blood is full of beauty". In ancient times, the average life expectancy of people was very short, and they could be called long-lived old people if they could live to sixty years old, so they longed for a long life, and they were very happy to see their long eyebrows growing, thinking it was a good thing.

Do eyebrows really make you live longer?

There is no scientific basis for judging whether a person lives a long life from the face. Many long-lived elderly people live to more than 100 years old without growing eyebrows. An elderly newspaper in Hangzhou once conducted a survey and research. Among 300 long-lived elderly people, only 7 elderly people over the age of 90 have long eyebrows. Therefore, long eyebrows cannot be regarded as a symbol of longevity. What you see is only a few, and there are many that you haven't seen.

What does it mean when the eyebrows grow longer after the age of 50?

If you find that your eyebrows are getting longer, it may be due to abnormal growth . Because the metabolism of middle-aged and elderly people is slow, new eyebrows will no longer grow after a certain level, and will fall off naturally after the growth cycle is over. Instead of falling off, it grows longer and longer. Only when it grows longer can it absorb nutrients. Therefore, it can also be regarded as a sign of human aging.

It may also be caused by abnormal hormone levels . Hair growth is affected by hormones. Eyebrows are also hair on the body. When you have done something that disrupts hormone levels recently, the hair will appear abnormal, such as staying up late, drinking alcohol, getting sick, and depression. Both can lead to hormonal disturbances, with several hairs growing abnormally.

In short, we can't tell whether a person can live a long and blessed life just from the eyebrows, but we can see the health status from the eyebrows. For example, after the age of 50, the eyebrows suddenly fall off and become sparse, which may be related to skin diseases and malnutrition . In addition, medication, tumors, and anemia can also cause abnormal hair.

Healthy eyebrows are very docile and well-defined. If the eyebrows are messy and dry, it means that women have insufficient Qi and blood and symptoms of irregular menstruation. Men should consider kidney problems, and kidney Qi cannot nourish hair. It is necessary to adjust in time, and eat more foods that nourish qi and blood, nourish yin and nourish kidney, such as red dates, astragalus, donkey-hide gelatin, etc.

"One long eyebrow is better than ten thousand dan grains" has no basis in the eyes of modern people, but it cannot be said that long eyebrows are bad, but we must be alert to abnormal changes in the eyebrows. If the body is very healthy after the physical examination, then you can trim it properly with scissors, don't worry too much.
