Abstract

The hair-cutting ceremony, a traditional ritual for young children, is a unique family event in both Mongolia and Inner Mongolia. Despite their shared heritage, these two regions exist within distinct political, economic, and cultural contexts, each contributing to the unique interpretation and celebration of the ceremony.
