  • Today’s video is about how to create hanfu hairstyles or ancient Chinese hairstyles. All you need are some hair pieces. It’s the easiest way to recreate an ancient look.
    Hanfu, meaning Han Chinese Clothing, or as I'd like to call it Han Couture, is what ancient Chinese people wore for thousands of years.
    Traditional Chinese Clothes changed from dynasty to dynasty and there exists hundreds of variations.

    I had always wondered how they managed to get their hair in such intricate styles. It never occurred to me that hair pieces would be used! I wonder what material they would use to make the hair back when we didn’t have synthetic material?

      Hair! Wigs and hairpieces historically would be made from human hair the same way many extensions are today. Poor women would sell their hair, or for pads of hair that were used just for bulk and were tucked under where they weren't seen, people would save the hair from combs and brushes.

      Rewatching this video again, and I have to say that the style with the bun that can be twisted down to the side is easy to do with curly hair! I do it all the time when I put my hair up in a top bun, and you can make it levitate just based on the fullness of your hair!

    I've always wondered about Footbinding in China. There is a lot of information saying that it is an old feudal custom. But I am really interested in the traditional culture of the ancient Chinese people, because at that time the moral values were really much higher than the present era. So I really want to know about the habits of old women. I believe what they do has a sense of preserving moral values. Thank you very much if you could be interested in my comment
