If you all have not been following the Wolong and Chengdu links the past week, Wolong has updated their webite which is a big sign that they are trying to get things back to "normal" asap.
This article about the haircuts brought back memories of the barbers we saw in Chengdu. In Asia, sanitation and personal hygiene is of utmost importance...even more so than we see here in the U.S. The population is too dense and the weather too hot to fuss with long unruly hair.
YOu never see long hair on men in China..very rarely anyway. It must have been one of life's little pleasures to get a trim!!
Here's the update
