Xunle Miao women's hairstyle
Compared with many trendy hairstyles for women today, the little-known hairstyles for women in Xunle Miao Village are particularly simple and natural, in proportion to the human body, romantic and free, and unique in style. The hairstyles for women in Xunle Miao are generally divided into three types: the first is the hairstyle for girls. Girls start to learn to comb their hair at the age of 8. Girls aged 8 to 17 have their hair cut to ear level, and then wrap a colorful headscarf around it for several circles. Then, a bunch of braids as thick as fingers are pulled out from the edge of the headscarf. The ends of the hair are still tied in the headscarf. The hair is naturally curved, and it looks like a chrysanthemum petal wrapped around the receptacle, making the whole hairstyle look like a chrysanthemum budding, innocent, pure, lively and lovely. And a fringe of bangs is added above the forehead, which is as long as the eyebrows. When the breeze blows, the fringe is elegant, and has a charming dynamic beauty. Girls often tie a white bird feather above their foreheads, which is a sign that Miao girls are mature and ready to get married. The second is the hairstyle for girls. When combing their hair, girls over 18 years old often turn the braids that grow to the cheeks to one side, fold the ends of the hair and wrap them with a flower scarf, and tie a beautiful bird feather on it, letting the hair fall naturally on one side of the head, covering one-third of the face. When the mountain wind blows, the soft hair covering the face is like a layer of ripples on the calm water surface, graceful and unrestrained, with a kind of shy and charming beauty of "still holding the pipa half-covered", full of youthful vitality. This is the connotation of the Miao girl's physical maturity. If the water boy takes a fancy to her, he will pluck the bird feather and walk away, and the girl will follow him. After talking about love and getting to know each other, the girl will give the bird feather to the boy as a token of love, which means they are in love. If the talk fails, the boy will still tie the feather on the girl's head and let her find someone else. If the girl already has a lover or is engaged or married for the first time without children, she will no longer tie the feather on her head to show the difference. For a Miao girl who doesn't wear bird feathers on her head, the water boy can only laugh and not express love. The third is the mother's hairstyle, which is to pile the long hair high on the head, twist it into various beautiful cloud shapes, and then tie it tightly with silk threads, and insert silver hairpins horizontally and vertically, which makes people feel rich and elegant, simple and charming.
