In sacred art, medieval Dominican friars are typically depicted with a ringed haircut. Why did friars and monks have that haircut? Why did friars shave their heads? Was this practice unique to the Dominicans, or was it common among monastic orders? What's the real reason monks shaved their heads? Big questions like these have been popping up in the comment boxes of our Aquinas 101 videos since the start of our very first season. In this video series with Fr. Ambrose Little, O.P., we will attempt to provide some answers.
Want to participate? You can submit your big questions to Aquinas 101 using #AskAFriar in the YouTube comments and on social media. And don't forget to like and share with your friends, because it matters what you think!
