SHAVED HEADS WITH BEARDS

In Egypt, quite a bit of centuries just prior to Christ, barbers were prosperous and very respected. The ancient monuments and papyrus show that the Egyptians shaved their beards and their heads. The Egyptian priests even went so far as to shave the complete physique just about just about every third day. At this time the barbers carried their tools in open-mouthed baskets and their razors were shaped like modest hatchets and had curved handles. The Bible tells us that when Joseph was summoned to appear ahead of Pharaoh, a barber was sent for to shave Joseph, to ensure that Pharaoh’s sight wouldn’t be offended by a dirty face.
