Qing dynasty hairstyle woman. In the Qing Dynasty 1616-1911 Manchu adult men shaved all the hair off the front head only leaving the hair on the top and at the back of the head plaiting it into a tail hanging behind mainly for the convenience of riding on a horse and hunting animals in the forest in mountainous area. 15This hairstyle is called Qitou hair of the Manchu nobility or Jingtou hair of the capital. Hair accessories took off from Rouxis hair.

For several hundred years between the 1600s and the early 20th century men in China wore their hair in what is called a queue. Fur corner is a winter must. Among them Qing Dynasty costume and hairstyle is distinguishable from other dynasties.

For women the erbatou Manchu hairstyle became more elaborate as the dynasty gained. Manchu married women must arrange their hair into a bun with a silver Bianfang an ornamental stick thrust in it called Gaoliangtou sorghum-shaped hairstyle. In Manchu women the so-called hairstyle erbatou or liangbatou literally a head with two handfuls of hair was particularly popular.

During the Qing Dynasty the coiffure became higher and fan-shaped sitting on the head like a flat crown. I took a photo with Qing Dynasty princess costumes on in China 1996. In this hairstyle the front and sides are shaved and the rest of the hair is gathered up and plaited into a long braid that hangs down the back.

This simple everyday hairstyle was favoured by empresses princesses and other women in the palace in the early decades of the Qing dynasty reflecting the austerity of that period when minority Manchu rule was still tenuous and parts of the Chinese empire remained unconquered. I will talk about other dynastys hair style in the future. Each dynasty had its own unique costumes and hairstyles.
