The Chinese word 理发 (lǐfà) for "haircut" is composed of two characters: 理 (lǐ) and 发 (fà). The character 理 (lǐ) originally meant "to arrange" or "to put in order". In the context of 理发, it refers to the act of cutting and styling hair. The character 发 (fà) means "hair". When combined, 理发 (lǐfà) literally means "to arrange hair", which is a fitting description for the process of getting a haircut.
