Due to strict regulations (both religious and sanitary), monks were required to keep a shaved head. As a result each monastery had to train or hire a barber surgeon to take care of grooming and medical procedures. The process of bloodletting\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(withdrawal of blood from a patient to cure or prevent illness and disease)<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> practiced by monks was passed on to barber surgeons, thus cementing them within the surgical field. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Barbers who had a knack for handling sharp instruments such as scissors and razors assisted in bloodletting for the sick. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the profession progressed, barber surgeons not doctors were <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">charged with conducting surgical operations and looking after soldiers during and after battle.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-222\" src=\"https:\/\/bsgsite.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/HistoryOfBarberSurgeon-2-1-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1180\" height=\"664\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The early versions of the Hippocratic Oath cautioned physicians from practicing surgery due to their limited knowledge on its invasive nature.\u00a0 During the Renaissance, Universities did not provide education on surgery, which was deemed as a low trade of manual nature.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Barber surgeons who were expertly trained in handling sharp instruments for invasive procedures quickly filled this role in society.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Barber surgeons were soon welcomed by the nobility and given residence in the castles of Europe where they continued their practice for the wealthy. These noble tradesmen, armed with the sharpest of blades, performed haircuts, surgeries and even amputations.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-208\" src=\"https:\/\/bsgsite.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/BSG_10-21-0549-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"574\" height=\"861\" \/> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By 1540 the United Company of Barber Surgeons<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">was founded, a craft guild consisting of professional barber-surgeons who were dedicated to surgical treatments and dental extractions. At this time barber surgeons still provided grooming services such as shaving and haircutting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> In contrast, this coalition of barber surgeons existed at the same time as the Royal College of Physicians, which consisted of the \u201creal\u201d doctors. This separation between barber surgeons and physicians persisted during the establishment of hospitals. Hospitals began to designate a specific area for physicians to practice, while barber surgeons performed their trade in a commercial capacity, using the red and white striped pole to promote themselves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The craft lives on today with the traditional red and white barber&#8217;s pole, still seen outside many barber shops, which is said to represent the blood and bandages associated with their medieval colleagues. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BSG is committed to continue this history of noble service and expertise to our community of modern soldiers who fight for good in this world.
