The Hair Village

The Long Horn Miao women of Soga Village sport a traditional hairstyle that puts Marie Antoinette’s ‘do to shame!

We watched three women show us how they made their amazing big hairdos (and I thought my hair was expandable!). They started with pieces of wood dowels, stuck them through their own hair… then start wrapping lots of artificial looking “hair” (really long black pieces of yarn) around the wood to make the hair stand out, finishing with long strips of fabric which decorated this intricate, ornate wig. This must eliminate ever having a “bad hair day.”
