Dream of the Red Chamber was a Chinese novel that described the life and fickleness of the aristocratic society in the Qing Dynasty. Although Dream of the Red Chamber had rich cultural and literary value, it did not want to be made into a Qing Dynasty drama because Dream of the Red Chamber wanted to express the complexity of human nature and the multi-dimensional society, not simply present the life of the Qing Dynasty. There were many characters depicted in Dream of the Red Chamber, and each of them had a unique personality and destiny. These factors were not completely restricted by the Qing Dynasty society. Therefore, the directors and screenwriters of 'Dream of the Red Chamber' were more willing to portray 'Dream of the Red Chamber' as a diverse world rather than simply filming it in the Qing Dynasty. Dream of the Red Chamber was not just a novel about the life of the aristocrats. It also explored many profound topics such as love, friendship, family, power, human nature, and so on. These topics were more deeply reflected in the context of the Qing Dynasty society, so it might lose its original value if it was filmed as a Qing opera model. To sum up, Dream of the Red Chamber did not want to be made into a Qing Dynasty drama because it wanted to express the complexity of human nature and the multi-dimensional society, not just the life of the Qing Dynasty.
The background of the Dream of the Red Chamber is the Qing Dynasty. Why don't men shave their heads? Dream of the Red Chamber was a novel set in the Qing Dynasty. Although the description of social customs and the clothes of the characters in the book was more detailed, the question of why the men did not shave their heads was not clearly explained. From the plot of the novel, Jia Baoyu, Jia Lian and others were not restricted because of shaving their heads. They could still shave their heads and wear long robes, which was consistent with the social customs of the Qing Dynasty. Other male characters such as Xue Baochai and Lin Daiyu did not have the habit of shaving their heads, which may be related to their aristocratic families. During the Qing Dynasty, men were strictly restricted from shaving their heads. According to the Qing Dynasty government, all men had to shave their heads within a certain period of time or they would be punished. Therefore, the fact that men did not shave their heads might be a punishment imposed by the government rather than a personal choice. The lack of a clear description of men shaving their heads in Dream of the Red Chamber might have something to do with the plot and character setting of the novel in order to better express the character's personality and characteristics.
'Dream of the Red Chamber' was a novel describing the feudal society of the Qing Dynasty. Men in the Qing Dynasty usually did not braid their hair.

It was considered disrespectful and impolite to keep one's hair without braids. In addition, the Qing Dynasty's hair-cutting order and other measures also caused many men to be forced to lose their braids. Therefore, the male characters in 'Dream of the Red Chamber' did not have braids, which was a need for artistic expression and literary creation. It should be noted that modern society has gradually relaxed the management of hair, and many men have begun to keep their hair without braids. This does not mean that men in the Qing Dynasty had such a lifestyle.
