Before adulthood, Manchu women only tied a braid hanging behind their heads, wrapped a red rope at the tip of the braid and cut a "bangs" on their foreheads. They often make unique beaded horns with gold, silver and jewels, tie them at the top of braids and swing with them to show their beauty. Married Manchu women must tie a bun with a silver square in the middle, which is called "sorghum head". The most typical is to comb the "two ends", tie the hair on the top of the head and weave it into a "dovetail style", with long hair at the back of the neck and a fan-shaped crown. This hairstyle is called "Qitou" and "Jingtou".

Manchu women like flowers, and they like to put gold, silver and jade hairpins and beaded hairpins in their hair. Manchu women have always attached importance to hair ornaments and headdresses and never bound their feet, so they have the reputation of "golden head and golden feet".

The hairstyle of Manchu people inherited the custom of Nuzhen in Jin Dynasty. Men's hair style is "half shaved and half left", which has a certain inheritance relationship with Manchu ancestors' "braiding hair and hanging shoulders, leaving hair behind". The custom of Manchu women "braiding their hair in a bun" also comes from the heritage of Jurchen. "Two locks" is the most representative hairstyle of Manchu women, that is, the hair is sandwiched on the top of the head and divided into two locks, forming a horizontal long bun, mainly high bun. Then the rest of the back is made into a "dovetail" long bun and pressed on the back collar to straighten the neck. In addition, wearing high-grade flag shoes makes you walk very dignified and elegant.

Since the middle of Qing Dynasty, Manchu aristocratic women have been wearing "big wings" (flag heads). It developed from the "two-headed" hairstyle.

The hair crown is a fan-shaped crown with a length of more than 30 cm and a width of more than 10 cm, with iron wire or bamboo rattan as the hat frame and green satin, green velvet or green yarn as the surface. It can be fixed on a bun when worn. Often embroidered with patterns, inlaid with jewels or decorated with various flowers, decorated with long tassels. This kind of headdress is mostly used by upper-class Manchu women, and it is only used when ordinary women get married.
