How would one maintain the half-shaved, half-long hairstyle in Qing Dynasty China?

by hellcatfighter

Not having a queue hairstyle was punishable by death during the Qing period - if so, how would one maintain their queues? Were there barbers even deep in the countryside, or would you need to cut your own hair? Would people need to go to the barber once a week to maintain their queues? Was the no queue law strictly enforced, or was there considerable leeway in regions of China? Anything related to the social history of the queue hairstyle would be welcome!
