U+6BF6 "毶" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+6BF6 "毶" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character that traditionally falls under the "hair" or "fur" radical (毛) and is primarily encountered in classical texts. Its exact meaning can vary, but it is often associated with the concept of long, shaggy, or flowing hair or fur, and in some historical contexts it appears as a variant of other characters related to disheveled or unkempt appearance. This character does not have a common modern usage in standard Chinese, and its presence in digital text is largely confined to specialized dictionaries, historical document encoding, or advanced character sets like the Unihan database, where it serves as a preservation of a minor lexical artifact from East Asian writing traditions.
