What about the hairstyles and accessories of Qing women? Two heads, what is a high bun?
The three most common hairstyles for women in Qing Dynasty are two heads, high bun and big wings.

One, two heads and two heads were popular hairstyles when the Qing Dynasty first entered the customs. This hairstyle combing method first divides the hair into two parts, the upper hair is tied into two braids, and the lower hair does not move. Then tie the two braids into horizontal stripes, and wrap the lower part of the hair around the tied horizontal stripes.

This hairstyle does not need too expensive and complicated decoration, and it will not affect the normal work of women. It is very practical, so ordinary women like to comb this hairstyle. Later, because the two heads were popular among civilians, it was impossible to show court concubines and aristocratic women. Respectable? This hairstyle is not popular in the palace.

Second, the high bun, also known as E bun, is named because its combing method is to stand the hair high on the top of the head. The popularity of high bun is related to the invention of hair rack, which is a special tool for combing hair and fixing it. Many high-bun hairstyles are based on the invention of hair racks.

Because this hairstyle can wear a lot of jewelry and looks good when combed, it is very popular with court concubines and aristocratic women. Every time a banquet is held here, aristocratic women always put on their costumes and comb a high bun, which is full of precious jewelry such as gold, silver and jewelry, and attend the banquet.

However, this hairstyle is not popular with civilians, because the combing method is complicated, which affects the action and requires expensive accessories to look beautiful.

Third, the big pull wings, this hairstyle evolved from the flag head, mainly popular in the late Qing Dynasty, it is said that this was invented by Cixi to prevent others from seeing her hair fall.

Big wings are generally fan-shaped hollow hard shells, covered with black flannel, about a foot high, with small round hoops below, which are buckled at both ends of the comb. Fans can be decorated with ornaments such as silk flower, hairpin, etc., and sometimes some tassels are hung on the side for decoration.

Big wings are a convenient decoration, which can be worn on the head when necessary and taken off directly without affecting the original hairstyle. Of course, the production of big wings is still too complicated for the Qing civilians, which also hinders the normal work. Only popular among nobles, the favorite hairstyle of ordinary people is two heads.
