I wonder why so many men in ancient Egyptian murals are depicted being bald, why were they bald? And were all the men in Ancient Egypt truly clean shaven or are these depictions not based on reality?
Lets find this out together, shall we?

My Aunt Mary lived to be 104 & had brown hair with very little grey hair.
Also, many redheads never go completely grey.
Most men in the ancient Nile Valley were not depicted as bald. That is completely false. I suggest you go through a list of all the tombs and temples from the old kingdom and new kingdom and accurately count how many were bald vs how many were not and you will see that most were not bald.
I use NordVPN, and they are excellent.

We can’t help being bald - Patrick Stewart was bald in his late teens, Bobby Charlton in his early 20s - it’s a genetic time bomb.
It's also considerably variable. My Dad was balding by his late 20s ; I got my hair retention genes from Mum, who kept her hair until she died at 85. It's a very labile trait.
Mates, I only just started the video but I can tell you the genetics for balding are attached to one gender. If men bald, women don't. If women bald, the men don't. Leaving the conclusion of genetics is it's sex selection done by the female over time and would also explain the connection over multiple distant cultures.
@@Fgway You speak with such confidence compared to various geneticists and biology professors I've heard expounding at length over the complexities of proving sexual selection. Now ... who do I think has more credibility?
Keep in mind Black people get bald and grey hair, much later in life compared to other ethnicities.
Black people's hair also loses its crossectional shape as they get older. it results in the curls getting less curled over time. sometimes even being perceived as almost straight, like Greek hair. my grandmother has almost straight soft hair in her 70s. hair ageing among black populations is an oddity as it is not something other ethnicities experience so don't account for when talking about the Egyptians.
Also, old East Africans also put henna in their grey hair. the practices still happens to this day.
RIP
@@eingoluq Thank you for this too, and it has been pasted in the document I mentioned before :) xx
I will now tell that my "look" is Egyptian Royalty.
Can you 'walk like an Egyptian'?
This made me think of Larry David talking about being a member of the "Bald Community."
There's some chance that elites could eat enough meat and organs that their testosterone going up would slay their healthy hair. If I'm wrong there could be other reasons.
Also, remember what Patrick Stewart said: He was asked how come baldness had not been cured in the year 2700 (or so, Startrek time). He said: in 2700, people won't care about it. :)
Hope you are doing okay Kayleigh!
I was always under the impression from my admittedly limited knowledge of Egyptology that the bald figures portrayed in sculptures and hieroglyphics are the Priests of Amun who ritually shaved their entire bodies.
Exactly: bodyhair is a louse magnet, so, as Kayleigh said, priests must be pure and threfore, they shaved. It is interesting to note that this custom has not gone away: Muslim Women from the levant and some parts of Africa will shave to avoid parasites. Traditional Jewish women also shave and their wigs often look like Egyptian ones, and the Jews originate from that part of the world. What is a hygienic practice was turned into a religious diktat.
@@annepoitrineau5650 If you want to know more read this. Sorry for the rant in advance:
The practice of shaving the heads of shamans and priests started in Africa. It isn't widespread anymore, but there was a time when many African cultures shaved their heads for spiritual means. Rock art from during the Sahara Green period shows priests and priestesses with rounded heads, most likely shaved. This means this practice goes back to 6000 BCE AKA 8,000 years ago, so it could be even further back.
Now to understand why, I have to make a very deep African cut. Now all Africans including Egyptians worship the same "hidden" creator god: Amun, Imana, Amma, Nyame, etc etc. but with the multitude of tribes the stories change over time. some of them have the belief that their hidden god, created mankind "hairless" " As such hair was considered a "flaw" while in other cultures, the hair is where all your spiritual energy flows out of. As such long elaborate hairstyles were reserved for royalty. For example the Dreadlock style developed into this belief system. Many Egyptians and pharaohs had dreadlocks. you see, Africans did not wear crowns like Europeans or Middle Easterners. They typically had elaborate hair designs. which means as a king/queen all their "power" was accumulated on their head as a show of power and divinity. Some Priests however would shave to their rid of their earthly show of power as a sign of purity and humility. The oldest secret societies like the Hogon from the Dogon would shave their heads still. It makes a bit of sense too why Africans and Egyptians thought of their hair as a flaw of some kind. Kinkiy hair is notoriously difficult to deal with. it takes effort to maintain, but at least there is a "plasticity" to it. look at all the Egyptian "crowns" they are really coverings for elaborate kinky hair underneath. All the crown shapes are still worn by Africans in some way.
But the elaborate hairstyles stuck among the royals/chiefs/kings/nobility etc. If you want to see an example of this, google the "Amasunzu" from the Rwanda people. That was the last remnant of the royal crown hairstyle that the Egyptians used called the "Khepresh". Also, note that "amasunzu" has retained the etymological name "amun" or rather 'Imana" their version of Amun in it.
phew, okay, next point
Any connection to the Jews would have been a one-time thing. for instance, All African societies practised circumcision and it seems it originated on the continent after the group that led to the Europeans and Middle Easterners left the region. There is also rudimentary depictions of circumcision in rock paintings in the green Sahara. It has been found that the Jews and people of the Levant picked up the practice of circumcision from the Egyptians and not the other way around. Because it is recorded in a very old African creation myth:
Termite mounds are found all over Africa. ancient Africans perceived it as a symbol of order because of termites' ability to create large working societies. As such it All African creation myths have the hidden god create the earth as a mound of earth. This is unlike the mountains and rock motif in Europe and the Middle Eastern myths. in Africa it was an earth mound. Termite mounds were perceived as either a penis, or a clitoris of the earth god/goddess. In some creation myths the sky goddess/god and the earth had some kind of trouble coupling with each other. there is always some issue that ends up with the mound being broken. This has been attributed to the mythological reason for why all Africans were circumcised. It is a very old belief that ahs survives in some way in African mythology. for instance, In Egyptian Mythology, it was Geb and Nu who had to be forcibly removed from each other. In other myths this forful removal resulted in these gods being circumcised. The Earth mound motif have been retained by the Egyptians in a few ways The earth mound is called the "Benben" and it is placed ontop of both the obilisk as the pyramids. the pyramids is a physical enactment of the creation myth. Africans buried themselves in earth mounds. the pyramids is what you get when you stack earth mounds ontop of each other "step pyramids" then smoothen it out. Africans in Africa buried their dead in much smaller pyramids made of of earth. They didn't have limestone available. If you also google African termite mounds, and compare it to the Egyptian obelisk, it is very clear what it represents. so the Obilsik is literally the "penis" or "clitoris" of the earth, and the Vatican has it right in the middle of their city, and in Washington DC too. 🤣🤣🤣
This earth mound motif BTW, is also why, Set, the Aadvark-headed god is associated with chaos. Aardvarks would destroy termite mounds and eat them. The hole they left would then be inhabited by foxes, jackals and snakes. (all animals associated with chaos in various Egyptian and African myths) another Aadvark in African mythology associated with the earth/chaos is Chiwara from the Bambara people.
Wow, sorry for the brain dumb, I hope it was interesting at least and you learned something. Your question was not a simple one, it has deep roots in African history and mythology. people who deny the African origins of Egypt will miss all these things I have stated.
But it is important to do your own research yourself. So please Google everything I mentioned if you like.
you can start with the Dogon creation myth. you will see similarities between that and the Ogdaod and Ennead in Egyptian mythology.
@@eingoluq Wow. Thank you so much. I have copied and pasted your reply into a word document in order to read it conveniently and research easily. I am also interested in hair matters, but my expertise is more European and Asian. There is a mountain people in the Himalaya who, characteristically, have poor hair. They wear beautifully ornate headsets...and fake breads on top. Anybody looking at Germanic kings, notices that they have long hair: just like Samson, supposedly their life force was in their hair. So, shaving a monk's head was also a way for them to surrender the bodily energy, and sex, and adopt a contemplative lifestyle. Again, many thanks.:) xx
@@annepoitrineau5650 no problem. Considering you are looking at mostly the history of straight hair then Egypt may not be the place for you, at least before the Greeks arrived that is.
Egyptians had kiky hair but there are some with softer wavy hair which is possible amongst native Africans, without admixture too. The Egyptians thus wore hairstyles similar to the rest of Africa: dreadlocks, clean-shaven, afros, braids, curly twists etc. They also used the same tools: afrob-comsb and curling sticks that east Africans still do.
My focus right now is very Afro-focused. The most I can tell you about Europe is that they went through a variety of changes from wearing it long, to clean-shaven beards and short styles in the Romans.
the modern, "short hair, short beard style" that wained and became prominent in modern times was started by an Ethiopian Arab called Ziryab the Balck bird.
he introduced a lot of hygiene rituals into Europe including short hair, and clean shaven. he also invented the 3-course meal, dessert, wine tasting, deodorant and toothpaste and the concept of etiquette, hygiene and manners.
the culinary art that Italy, Spain and France is so well known for was also innovated by him by introducing African cooking techniques as well as new vegetables to cook with.
with the Asian side of things, all I know is that Africans have an affinity with the Chinese. basically "tonal languages" but also using headrests. The group of humans that left Africa to settle in Asia, left much later than the European group, this is why Asians tend to have some similar rituals to Africans. for instance, neck rings are shared among indigenous Asian cultures with Africans, the aforementioned "tonal languages" but also, headrests instead of pillows. That seems to have been retained well into the time when their adapted and became straight. but they kept it for the same reasons Africans did, to protect their elaborate hairstyles. so the headrests of East Asia may have has a common origin to traditional African headrests. so perhaps look at those Indigenous Asian populations who still have their original melenation I was talking about. see what they did, and how it changed with the modern Asian.
This makes sense based on conditions back then❤
Thank you Kaleigh. I hope your recovery is going well. I’m a little old man and going bald. Outside working it seems like my head is a beacon for bugs and my dermatologist insist I wear a wide brim hat. I would agree with egyption men and think cutting their hair short helps with cooties and wearing a cap to protect their beautiful heads.
another interesting fact is that we know the types of razors they used and that they used polished bronze mirrors to observe their work. Great video as always ^^
Good to see you back in action, looking forward to this one 😀
I did not know that you have a debilitating condition. You have my prayers (which means a lot coming from an atheist.) I hope you defeat this condition. You are a treasure amongst humanity! 💔❤
Tuned in to find out why Bald and learned a lot about hair color. Being Auburn, I might have been considered Special. Hope your surgery went well and Best Wishes.
They were bald for the most simple reason....Bald is Beautiful!
Ha ha. First thing to pop in my mind too 😉
The simplest answer is... they were not bald, some artists couldn't paint / carve hair.
Lice and other parasites. They shaved their heads, men and women, but women usually wore wigs. The eye makeup was also made with substances that repelled mosquitoes. I think this has been researched and it is the usual explanation. I hope your health is doing well this days, a hug from Chile 🤗
same reason the europeans arriving in the Americas made the natives cut their really long hair bc europeans were spreading lice and fleas way too fast.
beat me too it xD
The herbs in kohl improve vision
@@jorgegonzalez-larramendi5491 Interesting!
@@jorgegonzalez-larramendi5491 The antimony in (classic recipe) kohl is a serious poison.
In some recipes they replaced the antimony. With arsenic.
Baldness is merely a depiction of heads with a cloth or rag.
The crowns were coverded afros/braids/locks and the red pigmentation served the same function as the natural wax still used today in tribes like the Himba.
The proliferation of Lice is highly improbable for the extreme width and curl of hair found in Ancient Khemet.
@@milktucker405 the most sensible comment by far. Lice is a wild statement by far. I have yet to meet a coarse/wooly haired person with lice.
To separate my people as royalty.. then we realized growing it out allows us to blend in better with humans.
When I was a kid, they told me that all the Egyptians were bald and either wore wigs or just exposed their bald heads. As I got older I saw the mummies, and a lot of them still had hair attached. For those that didn't, they usually found it nearby because it fell out after death. It does seem like the priestly class were bald, but the same is true in Buddhism. I think that probably had to do with renouncing the world more than hair being viewed as unclean. I have also seen bald peasants, not just priests, so I'm thinking that when guys started going bald in their culture, they just shaved off the rest. A lot of guys do that now, in fact, because if you completely shave your head then from a distance it's tougher for people to tell that you lost your hair.
Thank you for sharing. Ramses lived to be 90 with his condition. I wish you the same longevity...with as little pain and discomfort as possible :)
I had two surgeries on my left arm. Good luck on your recovery! Don't overdo it and don't be ashamed of asking for that bit of help. This bald man thanks you for the video lol
Great research, I hope you are fine and recovering well!
Love that you cover so many different angles of our ancient interests, Kayleigh. Always learn something, if not lots of things (the more common occurrence for me,) from your videos. Cheers 𓋹
Very interesting. As an older, part balding man, I feel much better now. 😊
Many of the rite’s & rituals in the surrounding Mediterranean region, to achieve status in religious communities, involved shaving of the head. It signified a purity I believe. I think you’re spot on Kayleigh!
Very interesting Kayleigh! You look like you feel better. Praying for speedy recovery
I see it as a solar panel....😉😆😂
Plus, Kojak...."who loves you baby?", some people will get it!
Thanks for the new video and good luck on the recovery. Posting most likely means that everything went good! I hate for something to happen to one of my favorite historians😊
Hope your recovery is going well. I find your subjects interesting , informative & I enjoy your presentation of said subjects. Thank you for sharing your knowledge & research with us.
Thank you for producing your channel.💙
I use Shark brand double edge razor blades made in Egypt. Looks like they have a long and fascinating history.
Another informative video....thank you Kayleigh!
Enjoy your trip and heal quickly.
Nice to have you back! Slow and steady wins the race .
Interesting topic, Kayleigh. What will future historians think when they see pictures of so many men with shaved heads in our time period? My nephew is one of them, and he says it's because it looks better than being partially bald. I'm 74, and still have most of my hair (mostly white now), and refuse to adopt modern hairstyles. Maybe some early Egyptians were skinheads for stylistic reasons- I hope you have a speedy recovery. You certainly seem in good humor in this video.
Kayleigh, you're just an impressive woman. Your essays are top notch and your demeanor is so approachable. You're a total mensch
Hi, Kayleigh. Hope you are recovering well. All the best.
My Aunt Mary lived to be 104 & had brown hair with very little grey hair.
Also, many redheads never go completely grey.
I like that countdown intro.
Very interesting. Thank you, Kayleigh.
Great opening sequence! I hope you are recovering well. Thank you, Kayleigh. ❤❤❤❤
You're the best Kayleigh!
Hope you are doing well.
They needed the cones to juice oranges, duh. 😂
I always assumed they were depicted as bald was so they wouldn't be dated in their images. "My Ra, that look is so 15th Dynasty!"
Great opening ...
Yaay ... You go girl ...
Great video! Nice to know I can get back at everyone who made fun of me for being ginger in a couple thousand years.
Make fun of them from now on😏😏
it is funny how gingers are mocked in The USA/UK. Where I come from, their hair colour is envied. Could it have something to do with the English looking down on the Scots and Irish, who are more often red haired than any other groups in the world?
If I had to guess, parisites, helmets, male beauty (as men would copy military styles, similar to what happened with high heels (boots) and purses(to carry gear like maps, compass, etc), when they were male clothing items (cavalry, in our recent history)
This is pretty much what I was taught decades ago. Hope that I was taught the truth.
... or, I could be completely wrong, and they could just be aliens ;) Entirely plausible, the proof being that there's no proof ;) Now, when I was a kid, that would be a false argument but today apparently, it's perfectly valid arguement. Mind you, I'm old fashioned and still want verifiable, non-cherry picked, facts to back up a conclusion.
I might add climate. I can totally see shaving your head as a beauty Trend in a region with a Ton of dust and sweat. Keeping a wig clean is comparatively easy, but keeping your Hair presentable in the Summer heat? Bro, Hand me that razor haha
You are back... ❤
Always interesting content!
I absolutely LOVE your voice! I could listen to you read a traffic citation. ❤
Lice. Women too, they just wore wigs, even Cleopatra did.
Don't go destroying my illusions about Elizabeth Taylor 🙃
Great video, Kayleigh...👍
Wishing you best health and speedy recovery so you can travel the entire world ♥
I like your theory regarding why the Egyptiona cut their hair. Of course it makes sense. Many people do the same thing in our time. I am glad to hear of your care and Inspired by how well you care for yourself. I'd like to someday hear more ABOUT how Type 1 Diabetes was treated in the past. It was basically a death sentence for many young people. I am 71 . . . amazing what can happen in only a hundred years. THANKS FOR YOUR inspiring shows. A disability is only limited by your desire to your passion for LIFE. 🤗💓🙏🌹🎶🎶🎶🎶👍👍
In historical times it was usually a way of not having to deal with lice. Hence why Georgian men wore wiggs. I imagine there was similar reasons in ancient egypt.
Thank You.
Hoop dat alles goed gaat met je herstel 👍😉
Baldness is a feature of some religious practices today, and there were some occupations performed naked, more recently than ancient Egypt, for example miners a few centuries ago in Britain worked naked.
I hope you're doing awesome. sure wish I could go to turkey but
To differentiate society into social classes in ancient times meant marking your body with something that signifies your class status which could be anything from a hairstyle, fashion, to the size of the tomb you built. What gets me is how these curious customs begin?
I take it to be that when societies reach a material level of sufficiency social classes begin to emerge is how culture begins to form among a population. This would have to do with the level of skilled work a society has attained that it can devote time to creating ideas. But as baldness is concerned. A bald man is a generic look. Epidermis is all you see. Very hard to tell bald headed individuals apart from each other. Facial and hair features add a dimension of personality and individuality. Enhancing the Self works against the idea of incarceration and treating everyone the same, whether a con, criminal, or prisoner, a slave. Strip off the clothes of a king, priest, general, and shave their heads, their enhanced personalities dissolves. The heads of prisoners are shaved so that guards treat them all the same. In a modern age only an individual with no dental records at all, no criminal record, and no tattoos has a chance of moving through the social classes and getting away with crimes against the rich or the poor.
I thought it was so they could dip their bald head in oil and rub it all over my body.
My dad just turned 90 and still has his (blond) hair color. Only some white at the temples. So it is possible! Since I'm almost a clone of him, I hope for the same luck!
Such an interesting video! Intriguing to think about customs and beliefs affecting appearances and artistic depictions of those appearances. Thank you, Kayleigh! (P.S., Hope you’re recovering well!)
Can I get the red hair now? LOL
Glad to see you back Kayleigh. Hope you are doing well!
'There is no pain you are receding'.
Get well Kayleigh, it didn’t slow you down !
all hail the ancient egyptian gingers
wonder what they used to hone copper alloy blades in those days ...
Those baldies are the aliens who brought the cellphone technology that was found in the pyramids by Napoleon.
I seem to recall reading that some of the Egyptian priests painted very intricate designs on their scalp as a symbol of their station... If you were a person of note, odds are there was a specific design they could wear too, and it's easier to see the designs if you don't have any hair on your head...
Good to see you back and looking well. Morris's "Naked Ape" documents the natural selection process for "baldness". The European aristocracy for hygienic reasons often had short or shaved hair under their wigs. Metal tools, with edges sharp enough to shave a scalp would have been rare and expensive in ancient Egypt, thus for the elite. Bald rules.
I think the yellow/reddish hair color is from the myrrh they used before wrapping the body in linen. Eumelanin doesn't turn grey all that often because of the amount of melanin, Pheomelanin for turns grey faster because of the lack of melanin.
Thanks for another educational video Kayleigh. I hope you doing well.
Kayleigh,
Did I miss it? Did you explain what those wax domes on their heads were about? :D Best wishes on a good recovery.
Oh that was explained in a video I made in 2021😊
An aside to the hair/status issue is that male children were shown with a distinctive hair style.
I think your research is sound. 😊
cesarvidelac has it right, they shaved everywhere to avoid lice and other vermin.
Shaving clean is a constant, frequent activity. It shows one can afford both the time and the servant to do it.
All eligible males had to join the priesthood for a certain time period (at least to the lower levels) to gain access to the royalty and government positions.
In order to do this, you had to complete rites of purification, including shaving your entire body (head).
Lice, have always been universally detested, and shaving body hair was a simple remedy and prevented infestation.
The bald head was a sign of status and conformity to religious and state values by anyone viewing the individual in person and in art.
First and foremost I hope you are doing well and you have all my prayers and best wishes to a speedy recovery ...
I'm delighted to discover I am holy. At least by ancient Egyptian standards and hair wise.
from my research I found out that most ancient Egyptians had hair
Yes, that is true. Hair wigs would have been expensive and a privilege. mostly nobles wore them. the rest of the population had to deal with their thick kinky hair. for simplicity, they either used curling sticks and wax/butter to have simples locks or they kept their afros.
This is why we find so many afro-combs and curling sticks all over Egypt as far back as 3100 BCE. Having kinky African hair meant a lot of upkeep. so the rich would take the easy way out and just wear a wig. especially if it helped keep the lice away. But not all of them did. when they had their elaborate hair, to keep it tidy they slept on headrests. Egyptians did not develop pillows for this reason, in fact it is the same reason why all Africans didn't. Whooly hair on pillows would create too much heat but also ruin their nice elaborate hairstyles. The fact that Egyptians used headrests throughout their entire existence means that shaving their hair was not the typical practice.
European style combs for straight hair only start showing up in Egypt en-masse around 1200BCE, which coincided with when the Greeks ruled it during the new kingdom.
Thank you for addressing the interesting questions. I've had a bald spot since I was 20 but I never had a shortage of dates for other reasons. Love your take on history!
I hope your surgery has gone well.
By lived experience, long hair in hot climate are a colossal nuisance, even beyond the bugs/parasites problem.
Bedankt, weer wat bijgeleerd 😊
My assumption would be that baldness is clean, and separates the Egyptians from the more rugged civilizations that retained their hairstyles. Hair styling being reserved for wigs so that they always look well kempt.
8:05 Yep. Native American remains with red hair have been found fairly often but when alive they most certainly had black hair.
I don't often comment but I just wanted to say thank you I really enjoy your videos. They're very educational and enjoyable and not full of pseudoscience BS. 😁
Hope you are healing well!
Hey Kayleigh I've got ankylosing spondylitis too. Keep fighting it!
Very interesting thanks for sharing this!
I think the real reason was that they were all fans of the old police show Kojak.
Thank you for another great video.
2000 years from now archeology will say our swimming pools are tombs, library's were temples and cars are sarcophagus
And we all worshipped Cats and dogs as deities and got them sacrificial squeaky Balls!
Free people had long hair, while slaves had short hair. Long hair on men was considered masculine (hence the story about Samson).
No slavery in kmt

I thought the cones were perfumed fat , cause the Egyptians didn't like B. O . I thought it had something to do with hygiene . ( The baldness ) great video , Kayleigh ! Hope your feeling better after your surgery 🙏 🙏 !!!!!
Cleopatra only shaved her head when she was on her pyramid.
In my 50s now, I'm quite bald atop. However, I had a great head of hair until my mid-20s when genetics kinda hosed me. Hair is great at catching sweat when you are outside working... helping to keep it out of your eyes, but once you are done, your hair is pretty much disgusting and knotted, so maybe - living in a warm sunny climate - the Egyptians were on to something.
AS club yo! Hope yours is mild/manageable! Peace!
I saw on History Hit about the discovery of papyri and other information from a village of temple builders about life of the common folk. Of course these documents was found in a garbage dump.
The marriage customs was quite interesting as the man sees if he is accepted by the women’s family then lived with them.
Can you give more information on those discoveries?
hi Kayleigh, check out the 4500 year old canoes found in a Wisconsin Lake 11 so far.
I Always Thought it was
Drawing / Carving a Bald / Simple Round Head was Easier Than a Head with Hair Texture ⚪
