Tonsure Tonsure () is the practice of cutting or shaving some or all of the hair on the scalp, as a sign of religious devotion or humility. The term originates from the Latin word "" (meaning "clipping" or "shearing") and referred to a specific practice in medieval Catholicism, abandoned by papal order in 1972.

Mike Dunbar, the "Dean of Windsor Chair Makers", has posted a blog decrying the use of the shave horse for actual production work: "I do not use a shave horse.
