Reader's question: Could you explain "to let one's hair down"? To let one’s hair down is an idiom used to describe letting go of your inhibitions or to behave casually or informally. For instance when two sisters meet up they would let their hair down and discuss all their problems. The expression dates back to the 17th century when letting one’s hair down was a common part of daily life. Hair, in those days, was normally pinned up and let down for washing or brushing.
