In the eyes of the older generation, this is disrespectful to the gods and will wash away your good luck.

People say that water is a symbol of wealth. If you wash your hair and take a bath on the second day of the first month, it means washing away your fortune, which is unlucky and has a greater impact on your family.

You can't take a shower and wash your hair on the second day of the lunar new year. This is a historical custom formed imperceptibly. There is no relevant scientific basis, but you can choose to abide by it for the sake of family harmony.
